When I click the connect to hidden wifi network , It has stopped to show the list of all hotspots I previously connected to, So i tried to check in settings->network->use as hotspot, Even this failed . I also tried with kde5-nm-connection-editor, This worked perfectly before the update, but now even it is not working .. I tried to start a hotpsot in my friends laptops .. Even they are not working :\

This seems to be a bug in 15.10. Creating a normal wifi connection first using Network Manager and then changing the mode to ap in the corresponding configuration file /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/<wifi-hotspot> makes it work. (Replace with the name of your connection)
