Okay. I just filed a bug report with the Ubuntu group. I use LibreOffice daily
for writing books, creating graphics, advertisments, business cards, lesson
plans, etc... and have many versions of these files going back to 2009 that I
reuse and update almost everyday. The only way of quickly and easily finding
what I need is with the thumbnails. I've been a KDE user for over six years and
absolutely love Neon, but can't use it because of this issue. Thanks again for
your time.

Ah, okay. Looking over
https://store.kde.org/content/show.php/OpenOffice.org+Thumbnail+plugin?content=110864,
it appears that Plasma 5 incompatibility is a known issue, that some kind soul
has patched it to work, and that his patch has been incorporated into the
openSUSE package:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/KDE:Extra/kde-odf-thumbnail/port-to-kf5.patch?expand=1

You might try contacting the Ubuntu package maintainer (which you can find at
https://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/kde-thumbnailer-openoffice) or the original
creator (https://www.opendesktop.org/member/136340/) and asking any of them to
incorporate the patch so that the package works with Plasma 5.

Either way, this isn't a KDE issue. Closing.

I have a script (more like a simple text file) that I use to install my
favorite apps after a new installation and kde-thumbnailer-openoffice is
included. I googled it a few weeks ago when I first noticed the problem. It
only works with KDE 3 and 4.x. There's something new in Plasma 5 that causes it
not to work.

After enabling the universe repo and installing kde-thumbnailer-openoffice, can
you let me know if that resolves the issue for you?

Looks like the package is named "kde-thumbnailer-openoffice". But apparently
it's in the universe repo, so you need to enable that first: `sudo
add-apt-repository universe`

For more info, see https://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/kde-thumbnailer-openoffice

The search only responded with "WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI
interface. Use with caution in scripts." PS: I filed a bug report under Neon.

No worries, we were all n00bs at one point. :) The package name may be
something different. You might try `apt search thumbnail | grep -i odf` to see
if you can find it.

This is the component for Dolphin. A bug requesting packaging changes in KDE
Neon would need to be filed against "neon".

I've tested this in Neon, Maui Linux and Mint KDE 18.2 and all have the same
problem. kde-odf-thumbnail doesn't appear Synaptic. 

"I would recommend filing a bug against Neon requesting that kde-odf-thumbnail
be installed by default, or made a hard dependency of libreoffice." I thought I
was doing that here. Sorry, I'm new to filing bug reports.

Is there anyway I can install it?

Thanks for your time.

If you don't have kde-odf-thumbnail installed, then this would be an issue with
the distro in question--here Neon. In that case I would recommend filing a bug
against Neon requesting that kde-odf-thumbnail be installed by default, or made
a hard dependency of libreoffice.

I am working on a patch to automatically enable all available preview modes in
https://phabricator.kde.org/D7440

Works OK here on a variety of open/libre office files.

Using:
Dolphin 17.08.1
kde-odf-thumbnail 1.0.0-5.4

(Plasma 5.11.0
Frameworks 5.38.0
Qt 5.9.1)

Have you got the package "kde-odf-thumbnail" installed?

Are (Dolphin) Previews enabled for ODF files?
Settings - Configure Dolphin - General - Previews.
