Bug Description

I tried using this "lovely" app, which I've heard good things about, so I go and try a random dock for a shortcut I have, and I have spent countless hours making shortcuts for my desktop to get it just right, and low and behold every single icon( i.e home, trash, firefox, chromius, etc) all disappeared. My desktop is 100% bare now and I'm really really mad. I tried some made up commands as your command help isn;t too...in depth to say the least, and just threw out "kdocker(dock? forget which one it is)-- restart, i did

 kdock(er) undo
*window pops up, as does the little mouse-to-grid kdock pick, and it's a error message saying something along the lines of "Kdock can't undo the operation". So I went through the help command and found nothing relating to undo's or anything of that sort. Hoping to please get a fast resonse all though I understand we all have lifes, but I need to figure a fix or workaround to get my desktop back ASAP as it's slowing me down with work having to manually find each application and no time to re create hours of short cuts with icons etc. Help please :)

FIXED:

Well, I don't know what exactly it was out of the sequences of randomness I was doing, but basically I was checking my desktop folder (all of which I did had the desktop covered by my browser window and multiple others so I dont know exactly when the fix happened exactly), so I opened files>desktop and noticed all my apps/shortcuts where still listed...odd. Next, i Opened the terminal and punched in $ cd /home/username/desktop and then i tried ls for the hell of it and got the bash error message, then I exited out of the windows and boom all the icons reappeared. Hopefully it was just a little glitch and is fine for good now. Sorry for the inconvenient bug report fellas!
