Addressfield theming
-
They really need to revert that silly search icon in the URL bar. Yes, we already know we can search in the URL bar, and it takes away a unique and identifying feature of the browser.
This is how it should look, with that sweet V logo.
(I also hide the adblock icon but that's just because I use uBO instead)/* Security default padlock */ .SiteInfoButton.internal svg path, .SiteInfoButton.warning svg path{ d: path("M10.4 5c-.4-.8 0-1.8 1-2 .7 0 1.5.4 1.6 1.2a1.4 1.4 0 0 1-.2 1l-4 7c-.3.5-.7.8-1.2.8-.6 0-1-.2-1.3-.7L3.8 7.8 2.2 5c-.5-.8 0-2 1-2 .7 0 1 .2 1.4.7l1 2 1 1.4a2 2 0 0 0 1.7 1.5 2.2 2.2 0 0 0 2.3-2V6c0-.3 0-.6-.2-1z"); }
I also show the nice old (and much easier to distinguish visually) green padlock:
/* Security padlock */ .SiteInfoButton.secure, .SiteInfoButton.certified { fill: #00a100; background-color: #004400; }
I don't do anything about the red one because that's now clearly distinguishable from the green one anyway.
I also hide any EV certificate text, but very few sites use it these days. It's just a complete waste of URL bar space.
/* EV certificate hide */ .siteinfo-text { display: none; }

@altcode I haven’t updated this in a while, the code I use atm is a bit different. But yeah, everybody has their own preferences and I think the address field is a perfect candidate for specific modifications.
@Pathduck As far as I can recall Chromium is going to remove the site info text in future anyway; and it’s true almost no pages are using it nowadays, it’s been more prevalent some years ago.

@luetage Far as I can tell from a quick test now, none of the major browsers still display the EV Certificate text, Vivaldi keeps it old-sch00l I guess

What is wrong with enhanced verification? Apple is still using it. Is it not preferable to have a site using the enhancement?

@streptococcus Nothing bad, but it wasn't widely adopted at the point browsers may omit such info, and I guess EV don't imply more secureness.

@hadden89 Back in the day we used to run dedicated mods to only show the site info text on hover, so it’s been an issue.

That would imply that you want to have a very short address field. Why?
-
@streptococcus The visibility of site info text doesn’t alter the length of the address field. It takes up existing space and introduces noise.

@streptococcus We made more space inside addressfield to display the URL & easier to identify the domain with just a glimpse:

With the enhancement, you can see who is operating the site. I like that.
