Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

I have tested with the latest nightly build on KFind (v27.07.70) and I cannot reproduce this issue.

Marked as resolved.

If it's still broken for you in the latest version of KFind could you please provide a detailed bug report (OS, KFind version etc) and possibly some screenshots?

IMPORTANT CAVEAT:

In its current implementation KFind will search for and return non-hidden files if they are inside a hidden directory. I don't know if this is a bug or if it's by design.
