            Bug ID: 483728
           Summary: Unable to create new folders or files on Samba share

Version information of current installation.

SUMMARY
***
Since the recent update to Plasma 6.0 Dolphin has been changed as well. It
looks like Dolphin no longer allows the right click submenu to create files and
folders anywhere outside of the /home/user folder. It used to be possible
everywhere and if there wasn't write access a password prompt or error message
would appear. Now the option is greyed out entirely.
Even when using the Open As Administrator option the Create New submenu still
won't allow the user to make folders/files.
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Navigating to anywhere outside /home/user
2. Rightclicking anywhere in a folder.
3. Attempting to create new files/folders with the right mouse button context
menu.

OBSERVED RESULT
Create New menu option is greyed out however it is possible to do this in other
applications like under a Save As menu. Also write access works fine with other
applications.

EXPECTED RESULT
Being able to use the Create New menu to create folders and files in any folder
with write access.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
See attached screenshot.
