Hi there Just came across an annoying bug in kmenuedit in 4.7.2, when adding custom launchers. After clicking "Save" the launchers don't show up in the menu. After some digging around I came across the following thread: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3118688.0 A quick fix, thanks to this thread, is to go into the following directory: $HOME/.local/share/applications And remove the following lines from the affected .desktop files: OnlyShowIn= Path[$e]= That will make the entries appear again in the menu (just log out and in again).
