Description Antonio Rojas 2016-11-22 07:27:10 UTC
konqueror 16.12 doesn't offer to save passwords or retrieve them from kwallet anymore (filing as bug instead of wishlist as it's a regression wrt the KDE4 version)
Comment 1 Wolfgang Bauer 2016-12-06 20:57:38 UTC
Actually this seems to be a limitation of the new webenginepart.
With kwebkitpart and khtml Konqueror 16.12 can save and retrieve passwords to/from kwallet.

Correction: apparently not any more, sorry. It definitely did work in the past (with kde-baseapps frameworks branch)

Please ignore my previous comment.

It does still work (with 16.11.90), I just had kwallet disabled (I did some testing with kwallet disabled a while ago and forgot that I disabled it, sigh)

The wallet stuff seems all under #if 0 in https://cgit.kde.org/konqueror.git/tree/webenginepart/src/webenginepart.cpp . No wonder it doesn't work.

I guess looking at how QupZilla does it would help there.

Mmm, is it still possible to use qtwebkit mode in ported konqueror to kf5? I thought it was disabled but some comments here point to it...

"qtwebkit mode" in Konqueror is (and always was) provided by a separate package named kwebkitpart.
It has been ported to KF5/Qt5, the source code is here:
https://cgit.kde.org/kwebkitpart.git/
Comment 8 avlas 2017-07-21 13:57:00 UTC
Awesome! 

Unfortunately it is not part of KDE neon User edition (as far as I can see), I guess this explains why the mode disappeared when I installed Konqueror's kf5 version...

I'll ask Jonathan Riddell whether he can package it...

Thanks

I know that what follows is not related to the bug itself. Sorry for the noise...

Unfortunately Jonathan Riddell couldn't find who is the maintainer of kwebkitpart (https://cgit.kde.org/kwebkitpart.git/) to ask whether a new version could be released, so he can add it to KDE neon User edition.

If you know, could you please help?

I cloned this repo and in git log I see

    Initial KF5 port

Also some commits were done by
Jonathan Marten <jjm@keelhaul.me.uk>
and
David Faure <faure@kde.org>

Still not working in webengine 17.08.2.

qtwebkit is already deprecated. (Not yet available for qt 5.9.2 and will be removed completely in qt6.)

That's not the full truth though.

QtWebKit is again being developed independently from Qt, like it was in Qt4 times:

Comment 15 Wolfgang Bauer 2018-02-07 12:52:56 UTC
kwallet support has been added to Konqueror's webenginepart now:
https://cgit.kde.org/konqueror.git/commit/?id=56ea2a32d2f1d9f4e6c97b27080cf8144a932ee3

And it seems to work fine here...
