On Kubuntu 19.10, I would like the Downloads folder to be sorted by date modified, and other folders to be sorted alphabetically. However, whenever I sort the Downloads folder by Date Modified, every other folder is sorted that way as well. How do I set a custom setting only for the Downloads folder?

As first step, you may have to go to:

Control > Dolphin preferences > General > Behaviour > View (Old versions of Dolphin)

☰ > Configure > Configure Dolphin... > General > Behaviour > View (New versions of Dolphin)

and mark

Remember properties for each folder (Old)

Remember display style for each folder (New)

UI of Dolphin demonstrating "Remember display style for each folder"

Then go to:

Control > Adjust view properties (Old)

☰ > More > View > Adjust View Display Style... (New)

In the window that pops up, adjust the parameters as you want and then select:

Apply to: Current folder

or

Apply to: Current folder and sub-folders
