Shortcut creation on GNOME desktops is unreliable, and often requires manual intervention (i.e. right click -> allow launching).
In older versions, setting a .desktop file as trusted and refreshing the desktop worked; however this does not appear to be the case any more.
What will most likely happen is the shortcut creation functionality will only create the .desktop file, and will let the user know they need to manually allow launching to have the shortcut work.
