Bug ID: 359072
Summary: web browser widget doesn't understand web shortcuts
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.4.3
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: bugzi...@kerridis.de
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
The web browser widget in Plasma 5 only seems to be able to handle complete
adresses which start with http://. In KDE4 I could enter a web shortcut
followed by a search term (like gg:foo) but when I enter something like that in
the Plasma 5 widget nothing happens, no error message, just no reaction at all.
The web shortcuts are configured and do work in konqueror.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. type something without leading http:// in the address bar of the browse
widget
2. hit enter
3. be frustrated because nothing happens
Expected Results:
The address bar of the browser widget should also understand and react to
addresses without http:// (just e.g. bugs.kde.org) and should be able to use
web shortcuts as configured in systemsettings. And if a default web shortcut is
configured it should be possible to just type a search term in the address bar
to use that search engine.
