(History of) Vivaldi Feature Requests
-
I am using Vivaldi for little time and a couple of things that could be improved (IMHO) on bookmarks management are:
1 - When selected "Sort By Title" the folders and should be kept separated on the top, not mixed with the single ones.
2 - The "Bookmarks Bar" folder should be treated as a separated entity for organization purposes. Make sense to have the general bookmarks sorted in one way and the ones on bookmarks bar in another. -
I would really like to see the Left/Right position option for the Bookmarks bar. In Opera I have it set to the right and showing only thumbnails so I see more of the webpage when browsing. The 16:9/10 monitors are wide so the left/right option is IMHO more appropriate.

Multi-login tab
It would be nice for the users who don't have a very fast computer to run several desktops also let users upload any file from their computer when they're on a multi-login tab and also a shortcut for the feature that will be more convenient, If they don't have a lot of time
then expand the drop-down menu.That's one of the reasons I'm not mainly using your browser.
Multiple user profiles
Like chrome has people on the settings area, unlike Google Chrome; there should be a method to click the existing profile by double clicking the profile.
Users can upload a custom avatar for the user profile If they don't want to select the default avatars.

Once more： mouse scroll for scale

I second this sentiment. It's been a long time since I mentioned it, but I've been wanting this from the beginning.

The person who wrote that they want the download panel to no pop up in a download when the panel was hidden in the first place, I have one suggestion to what I'd like to see in place of that.
When you download something and the panel is hidden, I think the panel should pop up and indicate with it's loading bar that is on the download panel button, instead of popping up the download panel. It indicates to the user that something is downloading in a snappy, modern way I guess.

One of the things I liked in Opera 12 and would love to see in Vivaldi is the ability to use the keyboard for quick site nagivation.
E.g. search engines list search results on several pages. Opera would jump to the next/previous page in this list by typing Ctrl + Cursor Right (or Left). Guess it searched through the links on the webpage and followed the one called "Next" (or "Previous").
PS: thanks for developing Vivaldi!

Any chance for FIDO/U2F protocol implementation on future Vivaldi?
That would be great! -
Thank you very much for this browser and for all the great work you are doing :cheer:
I started to use opera from version 1 and I still use opera 12 on several Linux systems and win 7. I am using always the latest Vivaldi snapshots since January 2015. The only reason I did not yet suspend opera 12 is the mail client.
- So my main request is a mail client
- less important but still very nice would be: size adaption of the speed dial thumbnails - so that all thumbnails (I like to use a lot) are always visible on the screen (like in opera 12)
- import and export of passwords and speed-dial-thumbs (if possible: all settings
)

A feature from Opera 12 that I miss:
The ability to View Source, then edit it and reload from cache. I used to use this so much, to quick-fix broken websites, or get rid of annoying javascript ads/pay-walls. -

- Access keys on the Trash Can Drop List as in Opera 12.17 (1-0 for the first 10, then first letters automatically assigned
- Favicons on the Trash Can Drop List as in Opera 12.17

1: Double screen usage, primarily having the main Vivaldi window on one display and getting the active tab's web page shown (preferably fullscreen) on the other display. Kind of like the Fast Stone Image Viewer does it.
2: Expanded tab management mixed with sessions/bookmarks/notes etc.
I want to stack my tabs, name and colour code the stacks and be able to drag them to a session archive in the same intuitive way as the notes worked in O12. Preferably I'd like to have browsing notes saved in the session, and my relevant bookmarks.
Basically one big data repository where I can store everything about my browsing frenzies in nicely sortable compartments. -
+1 on Sessions.
A great feature of Opera 12. -
1. Dark scrollbars in dark theme
2. There is option for smooth scrolling but there is something weird about it. It sometimes scrolls Hypersmooth (mostly from top of the page) and sometimes normal. I would really appreciate to add option to disable that Hypersomooth scrolling. It's annoying with fastscroll wheel on logitech mouse, when you scroll fast to bottom of page but it just scrolls Hypersmooth slowly so you just have to wait until scrolling ends even though you are not scrolling … yeah, it's as weird as my description :whistle:
3. Open bookmarks from left panel with single click
4. When opening bookmark as new list with middle button, it opens at background. I'd like to have it opened in foreground.
5. I have issues with playing some videos. It may be only flash issue, because twitch.tv and youtube.com is allright, but if you try for example http://www.ceskatelevize.cz/porady/10095426857-interview-ct24/ it is imposible to use video interface and if you switch to fullscreen, it runs at background -
Hi, is it just a missing feature or weird settings on my side, but I cannot just left click the tab and drag and drop it to the second monitor which opens new window with this tab. This works fine with Opera and if it is a missing feature I would like to request it unless someone else already did.
Thanks.

Since it is not possible anymore to set tabs to a fixed width with a custom CSS modification (it was apparently possible to do so in earlier technical previews), this also stops users from displaying their tab-bar in a multi-row style. Thus I would love for Vivaldi developers to take this up and add the option directly into the browser. Multi-row tabs are one essential feature for power users, because the Chrome-like tab-bar becomes unusable after two dozen tabs or so. While stacking helps somewhat, it's not the best way to go in my opinion.
Agree!

I would like to be able to double-click a bookmark and it opens in a new tab. Please

First I'd like to stress, that I love that you added option to open new tab next to current.
But I think it needs to be followed with more tab options, to really make it usable to full potential (opera 12 was good, but you can improve further).
First, option is needed, which tab is shown when the current one is closed. At the moment, tab next to active is shown, which is cool when new tabs are opened on the right end, since it puts you into the tab opened after the current one, so it does not disturb workflow… but if I open new tabs next to active and then I opened multiple links from a tab and then go to the most right one of them (the first opened), I should after closing it, be shown either the next tab I opened (time wise), or the tab from which I opened this (the one I'm closing) tab.
Also I hope the idea of automatic tab stacking is not forgotten.But the main idea - feature request I have, can in a way solve some aspects of quite a few tab problems with not much work (at least I think so):
Add an option to colour paint tabs in the order they were last shown. Or at least mark somehow the last tab shown before the current one.
Use case:
I have ~30 tabs open. 3 are standard on the most left (tabs I have always open (like pinned, but not actually pinned)), then I was doing research in few different areas, and for each area I have ~10 tabs open. Lets say I'm doing something in a tab 17 (from left to right) and I see a new notification in the tab 1... I go to tab 1, do stuff and then I want to return to what I was doing before in tab 17, but it's very hard to find exactly the 17th one and it would be a great help if it was somehow marked (maybe painted in a different colour or something).
I think it's hard to argue this does not make sense. But maybe it would be better to do it for more than just the previous active tab, but for last 3 for example, making the 3rd and 2nd ones more pale or something.I hope I was clear enough, if not, I'm willing to evaluate further.

Cookie management:
It's hard work to delete a lot of cookies but retain a few desirable ones.
You can delete all (not always desirable), or you can delete one-by-one using a rather ugly interface that requires a lot of mouse movement and clicking.
Filtering by domain is of limited value.
Please: a means of selecting multiple cookies and deleting them all with one click.
Better: as above but with a much better interface please
Best: as above but with ability to "protect" some cookies
