Notion Web Clipper Extension not working

erklaerpierre

Vivaldi: 5.2.2623.39

The "Notion Web Clipper" extension is working as expected within Chrome. Within Vivaldi it's not working anymore and just shows a loading circle.
Please help to share your idea/solution/configuration on how to fix this.

@erklaerpierre Yes, same here on same Vivaldi version for Windows. My Linux still has Viv 5.0 and Notion Clipper works. Usually if I quit and restart Win Viv, I get one Notion save before the wait cursor appears - but sometimes not even one. Nothing I've tried helped.

Exactly the same issue for me. I sure hope someone has a solution for this as it is starting to become a deal breaker for me.

This is actually a bug with the Notion Web Clipper extension. I did a breakdown here https://gist.github.com/Thomas101/e9c7de309623d8b8425ea8f46c66ecda

It's a race condition when loading scripts in the popup HTML, which looks like this...

<!doctype html><html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<script defer="defer" src="/89.js"></script>
<script defer="defer" src="/main.js"></script>
<script defer="defer" src="/config.js"></script>
<link href="/app.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
<div id="notion-chrome-extension-app"></div>
<script src="/config.ts"></script>
<script src="/main.js" async></script>
</body>
</html>

In the JavaScript, main.js reads a global variable that's set in config.js. However, because they use the defer attribute on config.js it isn't always guaranteed to load before main.js. (Plus they load main.js twice and config.ts that doesn't exist, but that's another story).

It is possible to reproduce in Chrome but needs a bunch of disk access from another app to change the loading order. Might be more reproducible on an actual hard disk rather than an SSD, but I haven't checked.

I tried messaging their support but hit the "Vivaldi isn't supported wall" and then when I gave instructions to reproduce in Chrome they just said when they click the button it worked for them. Tried reaching out to a few of their technical people on Twitter, but haven't heard anything

The same issue. We TRUST in you, @Thomas101,

Someone at Notion has forwarded this to the relevant team now, so hopefully, a fix will be incoming -> https://twitter.com/thomas_101/status/1516354877286502402
