[solved] dolphin file manager losing all custom places entries

Hi all,
I am getting phantom problem with dolphin file manager, i added custom place entries there but suddenly they diappear from dolphin.

There is no any pattern in disappearance. They appear for few days without any problem, even after shutdown/reboot. But suddenly some day they disappear and i have to add them again.

I want to find cause of this problem then fix it.
Or at least find config file where dolphin store configuration about custom places that i can backup and restore to get back entries.

I checked ~/.kde4/share/config/dolphinrc but couldn't find there anything about custom places.

I am using KDE 4.14.5 and Dolphin 14.11.97

Hi samtech09,

dolphin stores the configuration of the custom places in ~/.local/share/user-places.xbel.
The problem you described has already been reported upstream: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343735
