    [RESOLVED] Custom name folder icon in panel?

    I have a panel with folder widgets on it. Some are "Folder View" widgets, which drop down a menu of the folder contents when clicked. Others are "Icon" widgets, which take me directly to the folder in the file manager when clicked.

    I can rename the "Folder View" widgets, but not the "Icon" widgets. Kubuntu defaults their name to the path to the actual folder.

    Is there no way to give them a custom name?

    Check $HOME/.local/share/plasma-icons for the .desktop files for your icons. Then edit the .desktop files "Name=" tag with a text editor.
    You may need to restart plasma for the change to take effect.
