In order to configure Dolphin the user needs to access the Dolphin Configuration dialogue. This can be accessed via the menu bar; Settings>Configure Dolphin.
The Dolphin Configuration dialogue consists of three sections; General, View Modes and Bookmarks. Clicking one of these esections will make those options available accordingly. The options available are displayed to the right of the dialogue.

The General option allows users to set a number of options for Dolphin, these are; the default home location for the user e.g. /home/Peter, the default view mode (all directories will use this view unless they have already been changed) and wether or not split view is anable by default.

The View Modes option differes slightly from the General option in that it has three tabs in the options. The Icons tab allows users to set options to do with the Icons View Mode .e.g icon size. The Details tab allows users to set options relating to the Details View Mode e.g. what information about files are shown. The Previews to allows users to set options relating to the Prevews View Mode e.g. the size of the preview images.

The Bookmarks option allows the user to add, edit and remove Bookmarks that have been created. Note: only bookmarks created by the user may be removed.
