How to reset Klipper configuration

Wed May 23, 2018 6:13 am
Hi, I have accidentally clicked "Do Nothing" button while "Don't ask me again" was checked when trying to "Clear history" from the Klipper widget. Now the "Clear history" button has become useless and I can't find any settings in the "Configure Clipboard" to alter this behavior. How can I fix this?
Thank you.

There are two frontends - the old Kliipper and the new Clipboard plasmoid: https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/ ... n-klipper/

Your picture seems to be from the Clipboard widget.

The plasma widget is saving the "Really..." in the plasmashell config file: $HOME/.config/plasmashellrc

[Notification Messages]
really_clear_history=false


or

[Notification Messages]
really_clear_history=true

The Klipper application is saving the "Really..." in the Klipper config file: $HOME/.config/klipperrc

To re-enable the "Really delete..." nag pop up:

If you are using the plasma widget:
Stop the plasmashell (KRunner)
Code: Select all
kquitapp5 plasmashell

Open the $HOME/.config/plasmashellrc in the text editor and remove the "really_clear_history=true/false"
Start the plasmashell (KRunner):
Code: Select all
plasmashell


If you are using the Klipper application:
Stop the Klipper (Krunner):
Code: Select all
kquitapp5 klipper

Open the $HOME/.config/klipperrc in the text editor and remove the "really_clear_history=true/false"
Start the Klipper (KRunner):
Code: Select all
klipper
