Where's the Delete Session button?
-
@paul1149 That's really weird. I'm trying to fire up my Linux box to see if I can reproduce that, but it will take me a while. It's not cooperating.
-
@paul1149 So it's not doing that on ArchLinux for me, either. Do you use any extensions or customizations?

@Ayespy I just disabled all extensions, no difference. I have no customizations. I recently forced a new Preferences file, to solve a strange inability to log in to facebook or twitter. Then I resynced everything back up. At first I could log on to facebook, but today I can't again. Twitter does work though. I'm thinking of starting the whole profile from scratch.
I just got a pertinent idea. Just before I enabled the Workspaces experiment. That could have a bearing on Sessions, perhaps.
-
@Ayespy Yes, I disabled the Workspaces experiment (found it too confusing anyway), and the Delete button is back.

@paul1149 I reported some weeks ago
VB-95054 "Missing Delete button in Open Session window" - Confirmed.I set your report as related.
-
On the same Linux Snapshot version (.deb) and I have the Delete button. File/Open Saved Session...
-
Another issue is that deleting sessions does not actually delete their .bin files. I still have a folder full of them, whereas half of them should be gone.
-
@paul1149
Hi, I can confirm this on Linux, one session created/deleted today but .bin is still there.
Please report.Cheers, mib

Any progress on this? Have the same error.

I think there is no need to re-add a Delete button, you can use Sessions Panel.
-
Even if it is possible to delete a session via the sessions panel (just now I tried, and it works! hurrah! I had the same problem – which is why I looked for this discussion) – I think it would be good to have a delete button.
My own practice is to store a set of opened tabs in a session 'for later' (not 'forever') and after one or two weeksat the most I delete the stored session. So a delete button would be convenient.

@rzydenbos Upvote existing feature request "Bring back the delete button for "Open saved Sessions" window"
-
Yes please! I mistakenly forgot to click 'this window only' and ended up with a session of 209 tabs, instead of just six! I used to be able to delete a bad session, but I don't see how to do that now.

@DoctorG Why? What is the problem with having Open, Delete and Cancel buttons which are the 3 basic operations users need?

There is no problem for me. Vivaldi developers of user interface decided to have no Delete.

Hi DoctorG, I'm using sessions quite regularly, and sometimes I make the mistake of having a second window with more tabs in the second plane when I save the session. I would like to be able to delete those sessions I don't need, as otherwise. What's the point of having sessions if I have a mess when looking at my sessions? Shouldn't it be better if I delete the irrelevant ones to have them organised out of clog?
-
@DoctorG Is there any extensions to add a delete button in Vivaldi as clearly many people in the community don't have the same opinions from the developers? Thanks for your reply.
