First : unlock plasmoids
For the bar : right click on the desktop and select "add bar" (traductions may vary) and select "default bar". You will get a launcher menu, some icons, desktop switcher task manager and systray.
You can custom the bar by ckicking on the "cashrew" at the right of it.
For the desktop : right click on the desktop and choose "configure". In the general page, in the 1st combo box, select the "desktop" agencement (not "folder view")
Then right click on the desktop and select "add plasmoid" and then search for "folder view". Then configure the folder view (dunno if right click works but there is an icon on the folder view's handle) and select the path to your shortcuts in your folders.
