Export Bookmark Description and Bookmark Bar/Speed Dial options

When I import bookmarks from a Vivaldi installation to other one it could copy the Description field too and which folders are marked as "show on bookmark bar" and/or "show on speed dial"

@CheVe11e_191 For bug reports it would be great

@CheVe11e_191 i would love it, when I click on it, show me the sessions and clicking on them I'd see the sites and select which ones I wanna open, for example

Add a setting to allow middle-click on link to open tab in foreground. Yeah, I know that you can use shift-middle-click or make a mouse gesture to do this, but I'd rather have the ability to choose what middle-click does, including swapping the tab opening options for middle-click.

Open Speed Dial pages with Ctrl+Number

@Isildur Very similar to Isildur's request, and here is my two pennies (originally posted here):

Match multiple strings in address bar

The address bar only supports single entry to match now. That is to say, a space entered would be treated as part of the matching string, so it seems that Vivaldi only accept a single and consecutive string to look up in the address bar.

I think it would be nice to allow multiple strings, separated by spaces, to speed up looking up for browsing history and bookmarks. For example, I can type goo first to bring up a lot of history and bookmark items, then I type a space and viv to narrow the results to Vivaldi-related Google search pages.

@CheVe11e_191 Yes, this is a great idea. I could have sworn OldeOpera had this but I checked and it doesn't. It would be a perfect addition to the panel.

@Maujas said in Feature requests for 1.8 / 1.9:

Please add the option for editing bookmarks (Delete, Rename and so on) directly in folders on the express panel. Currently right-clicking on a bookmark in a folder just opens it in another tab.

Can you explain your steps to reproduce this error? Because I am able to edit Bookmarks by right-clicking on them both in a new tab / bookmarks, and also on the panel. Do you perhaps have the option, Open Bookmark Items with Single Click, checked? Hmm, nope, I checked that and I am still able to right-click and get a full context menu on my bookmarks in the panel including and Edit option. So, what steps aren't working for you exactly?

pafflick

@craftbrewmaster He/she was most likely talking about the bookmarks bar. This issue has been raised already, at least several times.

Ayespy

@pafflick: Yes, it can be hard to tell. In English, which is the language the developers and testers work in, there is no such thing as an "express panel." Most Russians, I note, seem to refer to the Speed Dial as the "Express Panel," probably due to translation issues. However, I have also seen the term used to refer to the Bookmarks Bar, the Side Panel and the Quick Commands dialogue (F2). I often am hesitant to respond to "Express Panel" references, because I sometimes can't be sure what the user is actually doing or talking about without more context.

Add a context menu item to open a frame / iframe in a new tab.

rabe85

Translate "Paste and go".

rabe85

Add the bookmarks to the horizontal menu like in opera 12

rabe85

Add some sort options for the bookmarks.
I would like to have an easy way to sort them all alphabetically, but all folders first.

pafflick

@Ayespy Yeah, I've seen that too and also thought that @Maujas was talking about the SD at first. However, the issue occurs only on the bookmarks bar and several people have asked for this already and thus it made me withhold my reply (which was about to be the same as the one made by @craftbrewmaster).

I'm not sure where do those "translation issues" come from. Some of them might be due to language differences - some phrases translated from English literally may sound odd, confusing or even make no sense at all. But there are usually only a very few exceptions like these - in most cases, you can translate everything without making up new names for features...

Yes, I was requesting exactly that. (If any of my wording was unclear, I apologize.)

The only difference, I think, was that I was also suggesting having that multi-term searching enabled for the "Search..." field that's on the Speed Dial>Bookmarks page, as well. (For that matter, it would be nice if the "Search..." fields in the Bookmarks, History, and Notes panels all worked that way, too.)

@rabe85 I think for this a split Bookmark panel like O12 is needed? I hope a split panel will come.
