Description Henrik Segesten 2008-02-14 14:25:35 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.1)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          GCC 4.1.2 
OS:                Linux

In Konqueror there is a small down arrow next to both the back and forward buttons which enables going more than one step backward and forward in browsing history. That would be very useful to have in dolphin as well.
Comment 1 Bassio 2008-06-15 23:58:20 UTC 
Yes, this will be of so much help.
Comment 2 El Cohete 2008-09-15 13:53:10 UTC

Dolphin has the history, as you can go back folder after folder after folder after folder... Are there any reasons not to offer the history as dropdown menu for the back and forward buttons so that one can quickly jump to a previous positions? Having that option would increase the workflow a lot.
Comment 6 Peter Paulsen 2011-06-19 14:31:14 UTC 
Any news on this? I'm still desperately missing the buttons to go back and forth severals steps at once every time I use dolphin.

History menu for Dolphin

Depends of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=279678

Provides history menus for back and forward actions, and open new tabs on MMB click. Also new tabs keep parent tab history.
Comment 8 Janet 2012-08-09 18:16:23 UTC 
Is it not wanted to have these history buttons? For me it seems like a great improvement. Or is the patch not fitting?
Comment 9 Frank Reininghaus 2012-08-09 21:27:19 UTC 
Peter pointed out some reasons why the patch to kdelibs that would be needed for the patch posted here was not merged. I think that this feature is definitely nice and I'll try to have a look at it, but at the moment there are just to many other issues to work on (and too little time to actually fix them - I had never imagined how much time a maintainer spends reading and writing bugzilla comments every day).
