            Bug ID: 425098
           Summary: Dolphin isn't Noticing Newly Created Files
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 19.12.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at startport.com

  Target Milestone: ---

Kubuntu 20.04 is a long term support release that currently uses Dolphin
19.12.3.

For the last few weeks, Dolphin has not been recognizing newly added files and
I have to type ctrl-F5 constantly in order to see what's really in the folder
I'm working from. Weirdly, even if I navigate to a folder AFTER a new file was
just added to that folder, then too do I have to hit ctrl-F5 to see that
recently added file (I wouldn't expect this problem to go to that degree; you'd
think that navigating to any folder should always show the latest state of that
folder).

Previously, Dolphin seemed to maintain almost real-time awareness of the folder
I already have opened. For example, If I'd use some other application to save a
file to a folder that I'm already have open in Dolphin, that newly saved file
would pop into the list, sorted an everything (if I recall correctly).

I tried to get help with this here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1264620/

But, no one offered any suggestions.

I see you guys have already made later releases of Dolphin, but I really hope
that the Kubuntu team will give special attention to Kubuntu 20.04 (since it is
a long term support release) and do what it takes to keep Kubuntu 20.04 using a
version of Dolphin that works well.
