Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2010-09-02 15:30:53 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

There should be a way of preventing specific notifications from being archived under the little i-icon in systemtray.
For example: No one wants to archive the “xyz has read your online message” or “network adapter a is now being used“ and they clutter your notifications history, even if you set them to disappear automatically (whose time span I do not know).
This should be done in the manage notifications window where you can set the type (like play sound, flash window button, etc.), so the user can customize the notifcations he wants to have archived and which ones are not.

Reproducible: Always

In 4.9 at least, all notifications with a low or normal urgency (but not with critical urgency) will be removed from the "history" automatically after 20 minutes.
The application defines the urgency, not the user.
If this solves your problem, please close this entry.

Hello!

This feature request was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this feature request is already implemented in Plasma 5, or is no longer applicable.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this feature request. If the requested feature is still desired but not implemented in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
