Description Ilya M. Cassina 2009-07-15 03:05:55 UTC
Version:           4.2.4 (using KDE 4.2.4)
Compiler:          gcc 4.2.4 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

When configuring a custom shortcut for "focus searchbar" in Settings -> Configure Shortcuts... --> (Konqueror) "Focus searchbar" the new shortcut will work as expected until konqueror is closed.

Upon running konqueror again the shortcut is reset back to default (Ctrl+S).

Inspecting $HOME/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/konqueror.rc, under the <ActionProperties> container I can see all the other custom shortcut I set but there is no trace of "focus searchbar" shortcut here.

I think konqueror forgets to write that shortcut to its configuration file.

If someone can point me to the "internal name" of "focus searchbar" I can try to write the shortcut manually in the configuration file to see if it can at least read it correctly.

This is also occurring with the trunk build as well for me and the Kubuntu packages for 4.3.1 in Karmic. I can confirm this issue in packages < 4.3.1 and in Trunk. Thanks!

This isn't a Konqueror bug, this is a konq-plugins bug from KDE Extragear.

confirmed, up to vanilla kubuntu karmic

The shortcut belongs to the searchbar plugin so it would not be saved in konqueror.rc. Instead it is saved under $HOME/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/kpartplugins/searchbar.rc.

I cannot reproduce this in KDE 4.7. Even when I close and restart konqueror my searches are rembered properly, including any alternate shortcut I setup. If this problem is still an issue in the latest version of KDE, feel free to reopen this ticket.
