Vivaldi and speed dials
-
I'll try on linux later, but feel strange that isn't working for you.
-
Thank you. Yes it does seem strange that it is not working. Perhaps I borked up the procedure somehow :unsure:
-
@The_Solutor Have you had any success with fvd or other speed dials in linux?
-
Sorry for the late reply, but yes, it worked perfectly.
likely you used an editor that broke something, try a different one.
-
Finally worked, thank you. The problem lied with kate and line length limit :unsure:
-
You are welcome !

Hello
Here my topic in french for FVD Speed dial:
https://vivaldi.net/forum/french/6424-extension-fvd-speed-dialI resume:
It works, but impossible to synchronize.an alternative;
http://topsites.meIt's FVD SPEED DIAL on a webpage:
-
I resume:
It works, but impossible to synchronize.Manual screenshots aren't working either (never tried the sincronizzation).
But, all in all, is a nice Speed Dial

@ The_Solutor
How did you find the chrome-extension://mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli/components/startpage/startpage.html argument to put in bundle.js?
I was thinking of trying other speed dials.
-
Usually looking at the url of the extension's option page is enough.
If not just try look at the extension itself opening its relevant files with a text editor.
(in the above case the extension folder is called mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli)

So with build 1.0.435.5 (Developer Build) dev (64-bit) the old trick of replacing chrome-extension://mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli/components/startpage/startpage.html with chrome-extension://jpfpebmajhhopeonhlcgidhclcccjcik/newtab.html in bundle.js no longer works Does anyone have any workarounds for that? If I change my bundle.js vivaldi simply fails to launch for some reason

you have do edit the correct extension id
in my case chrome-extension://llaficoajjainaijghjlofdfmbjpebpa/newtab.html#
you found it in your extension side

Yes I do that. For speed dial 2 that I use the line is chrome-extension://jpfpebmajhhopeonhlcgidhclcccjcik/newtab.html
But vivaldi fails to launch when I change the default chrome-extension://mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli/components/startpage/startpage.html

A less destructive and way more easy way to replace the stock SD, with the start page you like.
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/new-tab-start-page-pro/mjfahldkpjhcnfbbmdhpjolcjpcfhcpj
More important, it will survive to upgrades, unlike the solution I posted earlier.
For example just set
chrome-extension://llaficoajjainaijghjlofdfmbjpebpa/newtab.html in the options to open FVD speed dial instead of the stock one.

I want to try that but where is the 'Options' page you mention?
It's the extension own settings page , paste there the address you want as "newpage" and you're done.
It can be an alternate SD like FVD, a blank page, an online service, whateverβ¦.
Just use CTRL+Shift+E to reach the extensions page.
-
You suggest me to install an extension? I will not do it. I installed Vivaldi because it gives the promise of offering options out of the box. I think this a very basic option and I will not install extensions. I will just not use Vivaldi often until they offer a way not to start with Speed Dial.

Please read what I wrote.
An extension has never killed someone hardly will kill you, but here there is a solution I posted previously that requires no extension, but just a little skill from your side.
I also wrote that I if you still don't like them you can just wait for the next snapshot.
A problem with three solutions is not a problem anymore.,
-
if input the extension id in place of the default one and if i change />>>google<<<.html with />>>newtab or newpage<<<.html it still doesnt work. the id is of a new tab extension :dry:
-
As promised the native functionality is now in place.
Enjoy it on build 1.2.470
Practically this tutorial is not needed anymore
