Using it for any pointers instead can be misleading due to the "Out of memory" log printed in case of hits. 2025-08-09T14:54:08Z Misha Vicha waterpigcz@gmail.com 2025-08-01T22:48:24Z urn:sha1:645d3a9ab9b6b3018c61710e0ae51367b55a64a7 When the "Risks of Acting as an Administrator" prompt is not accepted, the user now gets their url theme set back to `file://`. 2025-08-09T14:54:08Z Misha Vicha waterpigcz@gmail.com 2025-08-01T22:23:07Z urn:sha1:9df4a9309fe15a7995c76eecc5dac9a0e763961a The "Risks of Acting as an Administrator" prompt now only runs saveDontShowAgainContinue when the prompt is confirmed. This fixes it saving even when the prompt was cancelled. 2025-08-09T14:54:08Z Misha Vicha waterpigcz@gmail.com 2025-08-01T13:19:53Z urn:sha1:bdb098c0f829d10ef0dcd587c63af65d3cf59658 The check now correctly considers only KMessageDialog::PrimaryAction as confirmation, where before closing the window (4 isn't KMessageDialog::Cancel anymore) would pass through and still ask for the root password even when the prompt was technically cancelled. Also now correctly uses the Enum instead of a hardcoded integer. 2024-09-29T14:07:21Z Laurent Montel montel@kde.org 2024-09-29T14:07:21Z urn:sha1:1365722dd7409e2e332b45dab8f9c3195762d2cf 2024-08-18T21:41:34Z Felix Ernst felixernst@kde.org 2024-08-18T21:41:34Z urn:sha1:f220e3b0783a24a6c7195f170297cf4b12a29d85 This commit implements an action to move focus to the Places panel analogous to "Focus Terminal Panel" functionality-wise. The implementation of the "Focus Terminal Panel" and "Focus Places Panel" actions is streamlined while improving their code quality. The "Focus Terminal Panel" action is moved into the "Show Panels" sub-menu because it makes more sense to be there considering that its previous location (the "Tools" menu) is meant for external applications and not for functionality internal to Dolphin. This commit also makes it so the keyboard focus is moved to and from the Places panel whenever it is toggled visible or invisible. This is now consistent with the focus handling when the Terminal panel is shown or hidden. The "Focus Places Panel" is one of the actions which was wished for in KDE's accessibility chat room because people relying on keyboard controls might need to press the Tab key a lot to move from the view to the Places panel. The new default shortcut is Ctrl+P. 2024-07-22T10:51:33Z Felix Ernst felixernst@kde.org 2024-07-22T10:51:33Z urn:sha1:6e6fcf8da80b5b6821837054ae51eaa19edc24b8 Previous to this commit entering a folder without read access would show the non-descriptive error message "Could not enter folder". If the user actually is not allowed to view the contents of the folder, this is indeed true and this commit will preserve this message as is. However, if an admin protocol is installed, users can actually view the contents of most folders after authorizing themselves as administrators. So this commit changes the error message in those specific circumstances to instead read "Authorization required to enter this folder." and provide a button to authorize themselves. This button is the "Act as Administrator" action. If no admin protocol is installed, this commit has no effect. The idea for this change came from Harald Sitter. I receive funding for changes like this by the Next Generation Internet Initiative, which (as I understand it) will no longer provide funds for future projects like this if the current EU draft budget goes through as it is. 2024-07-13T15:37:31Z Felix Ernst felixernst@kde.org 2024-07-13T15:37:31Z urn:sha1:19fdc5b67990bb75009a1fc511619bd449d559d7 Previously, the authorization just silently expired without any visible change. The surprise only came when the user tried to do any action, which immediately would show a password prompt. We don't want users to randomly type passwords into password prompts unexpectedly showing up. This commit avoids that. With this change, the view container visibly de-escalates privileges and shows a message explaining what happened. A method was implemented in kio-admin to make this possible. See: https://commits.kde.org/kio-admin/a2da29289d12ef845e2c1da17ed04c59f1c47762 This commit also improves some logic around the responsibility of hiding bars and activating view containers. This is also part of my project funded by the European Commission. 2024-07-01T12:03:22Z Felix Ernst felixernst@kde.org 2024-07-01T12:03:22Z urn:sha1:92b178b7404b002778d8288353f65e27ee5de5dd This commit adds a guided setup that leads users from a situation in which they try to "sudo dolphin" towards them successfully setting up and using kio-admin. 1. When users enter "sudo dolphin", they are told to start Dolphin by typing "dolphin --sudo" or "dolphin --admin" instead. 2. When Dolphin is started with "--sudo" or "--admin" it checks whether an "admin" protocol is installed. If not, a guided setup leads users towards installing it. 3. After that, Dolphin starts with an installed "admin" protocoll like kio-admin. Now a non-modal information dialog appears that explains how to activate and use kio-admin.
