As my first contribution to KDE, I decided to work on the (only) dragon
player junior job, because it looked pretty simple.
I'm supposed to add a status-bar toggle to the settings menu:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288323

I tried modifying the code, adding a statusbar toggle by modifying the
menubar toggle code (using KStandardAction)-
(PATCH<http://pastebin.com/9zj2E8Vj>
1).
But it just wouldn't work.

Then I tried adding it like a normal KAction, using an the Object name  I
declared in the .rc file (<Action name="options_show_statusbar"/>), but it
just wouldn't show up in the settings menu, until I tried using an existing
name, "unique", and then it magically appeared.

And another strange thing, when I randomly tried ObjectName as
"show_status", (PATCH2 <http://pastebin.com/TnR4Sz4h>), it appeared in the
Toolbar. I don't quite understand how, though. Is it some standard KDE
thing?

Could someone please help me through my first patch?
