Description BeeHived@proton.me 2025-10-28 08:29:03 UTC
SUMMARY
The Help button in System Settings under firewall leads to documentation not found in help center. I searched the KDE documentation site and used the search function in KHelpCenter and still could not find any documentation for firewall settings

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Be user (silly goose) 
2. Look at firewall in system settings System settings › Networking › WiFi & Internet › firewall
3.  Press help button
Note: Steps to reproduce still work if you're not a silly goose. 


OBSERVED RESULT
Opens help center to missing documentation page. 


EXPECTED RESULT
At least some info on what each of the settings under firewall do and/or really any info that would be useful for understanding how to set up a firewall. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:  Kubuntu 25.10
KDE Plasma Version:   6.4.5
KDE Frameworks Version:  6.17.0
Qt Version:  6.9.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I hope I reported this right. I am happy to provide more info, however, I am chronically ill and will always be putting my health before my hobbies. I may and usually do take much  longer to respond.  

Wishlist severity because I genuinely dont think this

Yep, there's no documentation. For something super technical like a firewall, it would probably be a good idea to provide it.
