Bug ID: 442186
Summary: Show accessed Samba shares as on-demand items in the
Networks section of the places panel
Product: kio-extras
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Samba
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
When you access a Samba share using a KIO-using app or a non-KIO-using app with
kio-fuse, the share itself is not added to the places panel in various KDE apps
in the network group. This makes it hard to access that location again if
you're accessing items on it a lot during this usage session; each time you
need to access the share, you will have to go to Network > Shared Folders
(SMB), > [share name] all over again. This is kind of a pain in the butt.
Currently I work around this by adding a permanent places panel item for my
shared computer's Samba share, but this takes up space for something I don't
use very often, and would not work at all for a corporate setting where a user
may connect to many Samba shares frequently.
It would be nice if connecting to a Samba share automatically added a temporary
entry for it in the Places panel, along with the option to disconnect from it
to make it disappear again. Basically it would appear on demand like a
removable disk, but in the Networks section.
