Description Murz 2019-05-19 10:17:33 UTC
After update to KDE frameworks 5.58.0 I got new notifications interface, and want to filter out unneeded notifications, eg from MellowPlayer (https://gitlab.com/ColinDuquesnoy/MellowPlayer ) that show new notification on each track and spam history).

I go to Notification widget settings, Applications Settings, and don't see MellowPlayer in list of available applications, here are only:
Discover, Spectacle, VLC Media Player and that's all.

But in Notifications history there are many notifications from MellowPlayer, that I can see and delete manually, here is screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/Ikrx57z.png

Is there any ways to filter-out MellowPlayer application notifications with missing this app in list? And why it missing?
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2019-05-21 18:18:10 UTC
Do the apps show up in the "System Services" category instead? If so maybe a dupe of Bug 407701.
Comment 2 Murz 2019-05-23 10:42:24 UTC
No, this app not shown in both categories. Most other apps shows in list normally. Maybe app must use some special arguments for notify, to provide app name for list?

Back status to reported.
Comment 4 Kai Uwe Broulik 2019-05-23 17:04:07 UTC
This application doesn't send a desktop-entry hint with its desktop entry. What they want to be doing is add a call like the following to their LibnotifyPresenter.cpp

notify_notification_set_hint (n, "desktop-entry", "mellowplayer");

Please report this bug to them, thanks!
