Changes to the default profile are not remembered. Actually the default profile is not even shown in "Manage Profile", but if you use "Edit current profile" a new one appears named "Profile #1", but without the modified settings. Setting this profile as default and modifying that works then and actually changes the default settings. Creating a new profile and modifying seems to work as expected too. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Konsole with the default profile 2. Select "Edit current profile..." from the menu 3. Change some setting, e.g. the appearance Actual Results: After closing and restarting Konsole, the old settings are back. A new profile "Profile #1" has been created, but not even that one contains the changed settings. Expected Results: The default settings should have been changed, and been re-applied on next start with the default profile.
PS, forgot to mention: This is with Konsole 15.12.1 (KF 5.18.0). According to the openSUSE bug report, this bug already happens in 15.12.0 though. IIRC, it worked fine in 15.08.3.

I can confirm presence of the issue on konsole 15.12.3 as well as on yakuake 3.0.2 which seems to be based on some common component.
This is fixed in Konsole 16.04.2. Thank you! @Lukasz: It still doesn't work in yakuake (not even modifying a new profile), but that's probably related to bug#360072 (i.e. "Manage Profiles" is completely broken currently in yakuake because of the changes in konsole). Yakuake' konsole-part should pick up konsole's settings though, so changing your profile settings in konsole should be a workaround for you.

It seems not to be related to bug#360072 after all, but FWICS the reason seems to just be that yakuake saves the profiles to ~/.local/share/yakuake/, but konsole-part reads them from ~/.local/share/konsole/. So yakuake's changes are lost obviously. In any case, that's a different problem than what I reported here, which is fixed.
This still happens for me, specifically I wan't to set the font to bold. The set profile at $HOME/.local/share/konsole/ has the right settings: """ [Appearance] ColorScheme=WhiteOnBlack Font=Hack,9,-1,5,75,0,0,0,0,0,Bold [General] Name=New Profile Parent=FALLBACK/ """ But the font is always regular. I don't know if it is relevant but looking at strace I see: """ close(12) = 0 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/Hack-Bold.ttf", O_RDONLY) = 12 fcntl(12, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fstat(12, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=318100, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 318100, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 12, 0) = 0x7f9d84154000 close(12) = 0 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/Hack-Regular.ttf", O_RDONLY) = 12 fcntl(12, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 """ As expected overwriting the actual font file is the workaround I am currently using..
(In reply to Sergio Torres Soldado from comment #6) > This still happens for me, specifically I wan't to set the font to bold. This bug report was about profile changes were not saved at all. In your case they are saved obviously, just setting the font to bold apparently doesn't work somehow. Maybe related to bug#390629 (or maybe not), but definitely a completely different problem than I originally reported here.
(In reply to Wolfgang Bauer from comment #7) > Maybe related to bug#390629 (or maybe not) Might also be related to bug#389725 ...
You are right, thank you.
