Apologies for the abysmal quality of the video, but hopefully
is enough to allow diagnosis.
main.qml:31 does not have the word message in it on the current Plasma/5.27 branch, going back several months.
What Plasma version are you using? And on which distro?
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.107.0
Qt Version: 5.15.9
Kernel Version: 6.3.6-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor
Memory: 31.2 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 5700
Operating System: cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20230612
I’m using the SDB:KDE repositories - openSUSE Wiki, so that’s extra weird.
Thanks for the assistance.
You’re welcome! Can you attach the main.qml file here?

Sorry, the file you are trying to upload is not authorized (authorized extensions: jpg, jpeg, png, gif, heic, heif, webp, avif).
@ngraham, I can’t be bothered to fiddle with drive.google.com or onedrive.com, so I’ve created 471040 – Can’t save preferences in kcm_sddm and uploaded the file as https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=159666.
All right, let’s follow up in the bug report.

In the bug report I discovered that our code is indeed wrong. It’ll be fixed in Fix showing error messages (!53) · Merge requests · Plasma / SDDM KCM · GitLab.
Edit: merged already, to be released in Plasma 5.27.6.
You can apply that change locally and then an error message telling you why the theme change can’t be saved should appear.
