    First I'd like to thank you for your reply.
    You can't imagine the times where I made a wishlist or even a BR without
    any reply.

    To come back on the subject... well... I was expecting something like that.
    Since it's about the same way to add actions... Oh. I was checking the
exact
    menu entry for custom actions and it's gone :(
    I'm using debian testing (been using debian since the end of the 90', you
    can't change an old habit) and recently there was a switch from plasma5
    to plasma6. My custom actions menu disappeared.

    I'm gonna look at the template directory (hey now that it has a use !) and
    the thread you pointed me to. However that does not tick the [ ] easy line.

    This part of Dolphin lacks discoverability...

    Thanks again.


Thomas.
