Analise: Bookmarks, history:
> With bookmarks, places one visits often are 'saved', and accesible in a
> simple and fast way.
> History contains all places, not only the ones bookmarked...( it can be
> bound to some days, like in a webrowser, or just al entries typed in the
> locationbar, it can even have a good search function, by bringing up
> entries, or possibilities to typed letters or words, all for users
> convenience.)
> Adding 'urls' to 'places' (F9) tab, is great, why doesn't it work, or
> how to get it to work consistentily?

Sorry, I don't understand this wish. Could you please rephrase this (who wrote that analyze and what has been analyzed, is the reply to the analyze the wish, ...)? Thanks :-)
Comment 2 Monkey 9 2008-03-14 12:49:49 UTC
Lol.
Ofcourse, this is from pointing out the nessesity of having a working history in a filemanager. (from a topic in opensuse-kde ;) I wrote it, to convince kde-devs, which encouraged me to write this in an enhancing request ;)

As dolphin is  a very nice app, which i use very much.
System:  openSUSE 11.0 (x86_64) Alpha3
  KDE:  4.0.2 (KDE 4.0.2) "release 10.1"

I very much come across these missing features, which force me to use fi krusader.

These are:

-History
-Bookmarks
-Most visited places
-Copy/Move to selectable location.
-Pack/Unpack to selectable location.

Than there is this very nice feature: 'Places' (F9) that adds urls to it, but it does that only with one of my users...
How can i enable to add 'places' to places?
Or should dolphin do that by itself?
(might be a bug if it should work, but does not..)
Anyway, i would like that feature consistant.

This would for the moment cover it.

Thank you for this very quick reply :) and happy programming to you ;)

Thanks for the update. I've changed the state to NEW and handle this bug-report as feature request for having a history (only one feature per bug-report).

> 'Places' (F9) that adds urls to it, but it does that
> only with one of my users...

I'm confused again ;-) What do you mean it does that only with one of your users? You mean F9 does work sometimes and sometimes not?

>How can i enable to add 'places' to places?

Drag the places into them or right click into the view and select 'Add Places'...

> Or should dolphin do that by itself? 

What should Dolphin do itself? Dragging?

> and happy programming to you ;)

Thanks :-)

Well, F9 works NP, getting something on the places tab does not.

|>How can i enable to add 'places' to places?

That does not work. The only thing that can be done, is selecting an item, which is already there, edit and remove or hide it.

I did not know of the feature adding something to places, until my first user was restarted, and showed places on my LAN, which i had been visiting, to test the connection, ( crash upon accessing the LAN ) . I thought: Wow: Cool!
But than with my second user, no matter what i did, i can not get anything added to places :(.
I hope i made myself clear? If not i'll try again, NP. ;)

YW ;)

OK, one request/Bug.
I'll file some more than :)
Comment 5 Monkey 9 2008-03-16 21:37:26 UTC
About the 'locations' tab it is called 'plaatsen' in dutch 'places' is also a translation.
I found how to add something to it, and also why i could not do it..
So i am glad this feature is now available to me, thnx for implementing it. ;)
Comment 6 Monkey 9 2008-03-16 21:44:03 UTC
The confusion is about the translation which is not consistent the same:
The tab is called 'plaatsen', but rightmouse says: add to locations, which not exists....'plaatsen' exists, not 'locaties'...

Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719
Comment 8 Nate Graham 2018-12-31 14:30:50 UTC
Bookmarks: the places panel does this

Copy/Move to selectable location: There's a plugin that does this: Settings > Services > turn on "'Copy To' and 'Move To' Commands"

Pack/Unpack to selectable location: Same thing with the "Compress" item available in the context menu.

History: Bug 157819 and Bug 171037

Most visited places: Let's use the bug to track this feature request.
