Hi, thx for responding.

No, that didn't help. Any other clue maybe?

Also, log out/in didn't help.

Ok, now they appear. I have log ou/in and then change icon theme to oxygen and then back to my preffered theme. Now everything is OK. Thanks for your help!

you could clear your KDE cache /var/tmp/kdecache-user_name
probably best to do it in a virtual terminal (alt+ctrl+F1) when KDE not running

This was about KDE4, so doesn't apply anymore. Please do NOT reply such old threads, it is really not helpful at all.

There is no such thing as "Dolphin Theme" in Plasma 5. If you have a realy problem with a somewhat recent distribution please start a new thread specifying all the necessary information like Plasma and distribution versions.

Locking this thread now.


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...
