@Rog131 - Thanks a lot!

It finally works! Also great that you included the KDE 5 solution as I will be
upgrading soon.

I'm posting about this on the KPhotoAlbum list. People on other photo apps will
probably appreciate this as well.

The nice thing about this solution is that it's done in the user directory
where it should not be affected by upgrades, etc. - at least until KDE 6 or
whatever else big comes along.

Meanwhile - A workaround to disable unwanted solid/device actions

The KDE is checking the users home directory and using the desktop files from
the home before using the system desktop files.

At this the /usr/share/solid/actions/ directory has a solid-action.desktop
file. 

1) Locate solid/actions directory
$ locate solid/actions

2) Make a solid/actions directory to home directory
$ mkdir -p ~/.local/share/solid/actions/

3) Make an empty desktop file to the home solid/actions
touch ~/.local/share/solid/actions/solid-action.desktop

Tried that. No effect, but it sent me down a rabbit hole where I found a bunch
of stuff  that almost made sense, but not enough to act on. It was too long to
paste so I added it as an attachment.

With the KDE4 - Desktop: KDE 4.14.2 Distro: Debian 8.3 jessie


When plug-in a usb stick there are options to
- Download Photo with Gwenview
- Open with File Manager
Image: http://i.imgur.com/KAFtkD6.png


1) Solid actions are at:
$ locate solid/actions
/usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/actions

2) Prefix in $HOME used to write files is:
$ kde4-config --localprefix
/home/rog131/.kde/
=> Path to solid actions at home:  /home/rog131/.kde/share/apps/solid/actions

3) Making solid/actions directory to home directory
$ mkdir -p ~/.kde/share/apps/solid/actions
Alternative is to use the Device Actions Editor and make a test/new /Add)
action. It will create a correct path.

4) Making an empty desktop file to the home solid/actions
touch ~/.kde/share/apps/solid/actions/gwenview_importer.desktop


Testing - When plug-in a usb stick there are options to:
- Open with File Manager

Joe, 

Sorry for your frustration. The silence usually means this issue is considered
as low priority. It is just wishlist. There are lots more severe bugs and crash
popup while KDE development team is always small.

After above excuse, I myself do not have enough time to add configuration for
this wishlist for now. But I will come back later if I do have time.

This wish/bug report has filed against the kcm_deviceautomounter and assigned
to Torrie Fischer. 

I think that an alternative (better ?) would be the kcm_solid-actions (solid
device actions configuration module / solid device actions editor) current
maintainer seems to the Ben Cooksley.

Maintainer information is from KDE System Settings > Device Actions > Help >
About solid device actions editor; command: kcmshell5 solid-actions.

Got garbage in this somehow. Don't know how to delete it. Next one is good.
Sorry.

Sorry for the inconvenience - Trying again with the KF5
With the KF5 - Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.5.5 Distro: Arch Linux

When dropping a CD to the player there are options to
- Open with the VLC
- Open with the QMPlay2
- Open With File Manager
Image: http://i.imgur.com/3otOD2m.png

1) Solid actions are at:
$  locate solid/actions
/usr/share/apps/solid/actions

2) The KDE (KF5) is following XDG Base Directory Specification:
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
'$XDG_DATA_HOME defines the base directory relative to which user specific data
files should be stored. If $XDG_DATA_HOME is either not set or empty, a default
equal to $HOME/.local/share should be used.'

At here the local solid actions are at: /home/rog131/.local/share/solid/actions
Alternative is to use the Device Actions Editor and make a test/new  (Add)
action. It will create the correct path.

Making solid/actions directory to home directory
$ mkdir -p ~/.local/share/solid/actions

3) Making an empty desktop file to the home solid/actions
$ touch ~/.local/share/solid/actions/vlc-opencda.desktop

Isn't 5 years enough time to at least get a response from the KDE developers on
this issue?

I have used KDE forever (decades), but I don't usually recommend it to others
because I usually don't feel that anyone is even listening to me when I have an
issue or a request.

I have long since realized that the way I do things and what I like is is
somewhat unique to me and I don't expect others to agree with my views, but I
do expect to be met with more than a wall of silence.
