You're very welcome. I don't know that this is an actual solution, but if not it's a very close workaround.I hope that there will be an official fix from Vivaldi. But actually it works like a charm.

What's the difference between "In Vivaldi" and "Global"? Does it mean that this shortcut does work in other applications too?
Something like that, yes. I use StreamKeys to use my keyboard's media keys in Vivaldi. It is set to global, which means that I can pause/resume the music or change songs even when I'm using a completely different program.

Thanks @Komposten !
-
I think it means it's 'global' for all extensions in Vivaldi. Anyway, thanks a lot for solving this!

You're very welcome, but how could one hotkey work for all extensions?
-
The alternative to global is 'In Vivaldi'. To me that suggests that Global means 'Also outside Vivaldi'.
Since extensions live inside Vivaldi, it doesn't make sense that 'Global' would refer to 'Global for all extensions'.
-
Good point. Dunno what I was thinking.

Hi there,
Any update on this in Vivaldi 3?
Thanks.
-
Any Update?
Keyboard shortcut still not working if "In Vivaldi" selected & can't select "Global" for conflicting issue. -
how can i follow/upvote this bug (as in getting email notification if this will ever be fixed)?

@wolfga there is no public bug tracker. This is so old, it likely has already been addressed and what you're experiencing is a regression and you should file a new bug.
If you have a bug number and want to check on the status, you can post in this thread
See this page for information on how to report a bug.
Welcome to the forum.

Hey I'm new to vivaldi and since I'm writing this in the middle of 2020 I'm on vivladi v3.1.1929.40 (Stable channel) (64-bit) and when I go to vivaldi://extensions I don't see any shortcuts in there let alone an option to make them global.
Ctrl+Shift+L
is still not working. Is there a more recent fix for this? -
@agilesteel
Onvivaldi://extensions
, click the hamburger menu in the top left:
This should open a menu where "Keyboard shortcuts" is an option.
(This UI design is inherited from Chromium since Vivaldi doesn't yet have its own extension page, and it is stupid.)
-
@Komposten Oh man... thanks! It's hidden so well. I found it, changed it to global and now it works. Awesomeness!
-
Still not working on Vivaldi, 3.1.1929.45 (Stable channel) (64-bit) on Deepin V20 beta. This is the only thing that keeps me using opera.

This issue suddenly occurred for me. No rhyme or reason. This is so freaking weird. I have been using Vivaldi perfectly fine for a few months now. Updating and updating...then all the sudden I have this terrible issue!
None of my Keyboard shortcuts work for Extensions. No idea why or how this happened. Search for the problem and came here to report. Also, sometimes very briefly the issue goes away...but I can't repeat this behavior or figure out why. It is unreliable.

@zhdenny Setting the shortcuts to
Global
seems to get them working for me.@nomadic said in Bitwarden AutoFill keyboard short cut does not work on Linux:
Have you tried setting the shortcut to
Global
instead of the defaultIn Vivaldi
?You can change this in
vivaldi://extensions/
(Ctrl
+Shift
+E
).- Just expand the hamburger menu in the top left corner
- Select
Keyboard Shortcuts
- Scroll to the specific extension's section
- Change the relevant keyboard shortcuts to
Global
This is obviously a workaround to a bug, but at least it gets it working.
-
@nomadic Ya, I definitely have tried setting it to global or vivaldi.....sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. It is weird.

Having left Vivaldi several months ago because of unpredictable keyboard shortcut behavior similar to this, I recently decided to come back and give it another try. At the time I wasn’t using Bitwarden, but now I am. So on my first day after reinstalling Vivaldi, I run into this bug. Not encouraging.
By the way, the “Global” workaround does what it says. If I have a login page open in Vivaldi and I switch to another program, pressing Ctrl+Shift+L autofills my username and password in Vivaldi. Worse, if I go to, say, Firefox and attempt to autofill a login using Ctrl+Shift+L, it now fails (because Vivaldi captures my keyboard shortcut).
If and when Vivaldi fixes these long-standing issues, I will consider returning. It is a pity because Vivaldi has a significant edge in UI design (tabs etc.), keyboard shortcut customizability, and other features. But once again (and I don’t think I’m alone), I’m finding the broken keyboard-shortcut behavior a dealbreaker.

@op132 The Bitwarden extension can't fill in anything beyond the browser, since extensions are sandboxed. I suspect you are using the Bitwarden program on your OS. That's the only way you could have such problems.
