Vivaldi Forum mod

[Ornorm]

@lonm Not a problem. You're a great guide. I could find everything you proposed.

[luetage]

@ornorm I'm not kidding at all. Vivaldi uses piwik to collect user data, ublock blocks this and then you get the errors – they do no harm at all, but if you wanna support Vivaldi you should disable ublock.

[LonM]

The good thing about piwik is (if I'm reading ublock origin right), it is all hosted by vivaldi which means no 3rd parties to worry about

[Ornorm]

@lonm Ok, strange. Just by following what you said and having refreshed the tab within the tab stack, it worked (the test posted right before)

[Ornorm]

@luetage Ok, thanks for letting me know this. Really important. I'll de-activate it for Vivaldi (for sure)

[LonM]

@ornorm For how long had you gone without refreshing the tab, out of curiosity? (if you remember)

[Ornorm]

@lonm A long time I guess. I just, when I'm on the forum, navigate by using the menu icons of the forum (don't know if that refreshes the page).

[LonM]

@ornorm It might be the case that the mod sbreaks after an extended period of navigating about. I'll look into this at a later date.

Note to self: maybe the forum does something with the DOM and changes the buttons so the listeners dont work any more

[Ornorm]

@lonm Thanks for your great help. Where can I find the errors that could have been collected by VF Mod (now that I did activate it following your kind instructions)?
By following the first explanations you gave (F12, etc.)? Or is it somewhere else?

[Ornorm]

@luetage Thanks a lot again luetage. I'm ashamed I didn't know this because I really want to support Vivaldi. I thought you were kidding because of the (so glad I can insert those again...).
That's why I presumed it was ironic and, having an intense battle and struggle with all the codes, messages, etc. I was quite in a hurry and couldn't take the correct distance to understand your message correctly.
P.S. : I think there should be a kind of pinned message at the very top of the forum for the users to know they should de-activate their adblockers on Vivaldi pages (because I'm pretty sure we are thousands of users not knowing this).

Unsure about this. Could be seen as "oh noes, even this forum annoy people with <<disable your adblock>>".
A small text on bottom which kindly ask "whitelist vivaldi in your adblock to support us" (link to privacy page) would be a better choice

[Ornorm]

@hadden89 For sure! Any idea to have the users aware of it. For the Vivaldi lovers (like me ), I feel stupid I blocked Vivaldi during 8 months...

[Ornorm]

@hadden89 Did mention your idea here.

[burbuja]

Why should be add block disabled here in forum? I dont see any reason, I dont see any adds.

[Ornorm]

@burbuja Because of what Luetage writes here about piwik.

[burbuja]

@ornorm Thank you, disabled.

[LonM]

@ornorm if it did collect any errors, you should be able to see them by clicking a box on the Vivaldi://extensions page on the forum mod card. It'll only show up if it actually encounters errors though.

[Ornorm]

@lonm Thanks a lot LonM, no error to report then.
It seems it was all related to the fact I didn't refresh the tab for too long.
Thank you very very very much for your kind, patient and precise assistance. It was really helpful for me.
Have a nice day.

I've done some experimenting to get the hidden buttons modal opener be in-line in the toolbar rather than a floating button.

You can't move it, as it's stuck to the left. Thoughts?

[hlehyaric]

@lonm I'm fine with its current position.
