2. After editing, click OK.

The next time you edit an entry, the popup reappears.  It continues to reappear.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.12.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I added a comment to bug 409801 but, on reflection, think this is a different issue.  In "Configure Clipboard", 'Actions', "Enable MIME-based actions" is NOT selected.
Comment 1 Patrick Silva 2020-02-07 16:09:53 UTC
I can confirm this bug only if  "Enable MIME-based actions" is enabled in klipper settings.

Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.90
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0
Qt Version: 5.14.1

Comment 3 North 2020-02-27 23:46:40 UTC
The issue occurs even when "Enable mime-based actions" is unchecked. It may be that unchecking is ineffective - see the screenshot attached of the first entry in klipper earlier (it was a partial url).

> 3. Click "disable this popup" option on resulting popup

Where is this popup? After editing I don't see any popup.
Comment 5 North 2020-02-28 21:18:26 UTC
The popup appears in the bottom left of my screen.  You may need to check "Enable mime-based actions" to see it.  I can't take a screenshot because as soon as I click on "Take a New Screenshot", the popup disappears.
It seems to me that the popup serves no useful purpose.
Comment 6 North 2020-02-28 21:21:16 UTC
Apologies. The popup appears in the bottom RIGHT of my screen.

Git commit 5762c3fa805f589018bb2fb5a980e2bcef167dc4 by Nate Graham.
Committed on 12/05/2025 at 22:20.
Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'.

klipper: remove the "disable this popup" menu item

# Reason for the change
My sense is that this was added during the time when there were
clipboard actions included by default, because we wanted to provide a
way to disable this potentially unexpected and intrusive popup.

However we haven't shipped clipboard actions for a long time, at least 8
years. Thus, almost everyone using them has set them up manually. This
means if they did want to disable the popup, they already know how from
the config window.

Let's remove it.


# Test Plan
1. Enable "Show action popup menu \[X\] Immediately on selection" in Klipper's settings window
2. Copy a URL
