Talk:KDEConnect
KDEConnect is still missing a very useful feature, luckily already implemented in GSConnect: Dial-up. When the PC user clicks on a "tel:" hyperlink, and this link type is associated with " KDEConnect", then it should, like GSConnect, transfer the phone number mentioned in the link to the smartphone dial-up application, display it and stay waiting for the push on the (green) dial-up button. I hope that, because this feature exists already in GSConnect, copying the code into KDEConnect would not be a big deal and can hence be quickly implemented. PS. I'm not sure this is the right place to discuss this. Please advice.
This is not the right place to discuss - chances that a KDEConnect developer will notice a feature request here is not great. The best way is probably to make a feature request on bugzilla. Claus chr (talk) 08:22, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
Page broken
If I go to https://userbase.kde.org/KDEConnect, I get a pink box with the following error
> [fe207a0d9d835c0ef7a8e13a] 2024-04-05 21:21:15: Fatal exception of type "TypeError"
I am unable to compare the current version to previous versions
- I'm not too familiar with the mediawiki system, but it seems like removing the youtube links allows it to render. Tried replacing the ev syntax with the <youtube> tag, and it still resulted in a TypeError. Seems like a December 2022 edit is the last revision that can currently render. --Johnaoss (talk) 17:24, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for drawing our attention to this problem. I think your analysis is correct, but I can't do anything about it presently – I can't even access the offending edit or edit the page itself. I get the same error as when I try to view either of them.
If you still can edit the page, can you please comment out the offending section (place <!-- before and --> after the offending section. If this doesn't work, another possible suspect is one of the latest two edits. I know that the page was rendering correctly when I last edited it on november 6. 2023.
In the meantime I'll try to see if anything has changed in the handling of video rendering recently. In the end I may have to ask our sysadmins for help, but I would like to be able to provide as much info as possible before I ask for their help.

modern network
I was going to add modern fixes for the network, but was scared away by the translation things I still don't understand. So leaving this here as a draft, but feel free to move to the page if you want to:
nftables
To add kdeconnect ports to the default nftables file
# /etc/nftables.conf chain input { type filter hook input priority -1 policy drop ... tcp dport 1714-1764 accept udp dport 1714-1764 accept ... }
you can then check if the file is correct with nft -c -f /etc/nftables.conf
and finally reload the service. e.g. sudo systemctl restart nftables.service
