Vivaldi and speed dials
-
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

If the Vivaldi team would like to know how dials should work then go the this web site.
