CRISES! Entire Feeds Subscription disappeared
-
Thank you to everyone who has been working on this issue.
I updated my browser to Vivaldi 6.0 and check my feeds.
They still show in the menu but not in the sidebar.I'm not sure if the fix was only for snapshot.
The problem I had and the screenshot attachment are of the stable main browser view of feeds that appe ar in settings but not in sidebar. -
Same here, latest snapshot. Feeds are in the Settings but not displayed in the sidebar at all.

@thinkeranddoer you are not wrong in asking so. This is my fault. I fixed the issue for missing offline accounts but not for missing feeds. The bug is still open in our BTS. In 6.0 release, our delivery team saw a commit on that bug that was to be included in the release but that was only part of the story. Fixing this for the feeds is more complicated and I did not finish that in time for 6.0. And then my attention drifted to other pressing bugs. I will get back to this now.

@ltgorm Thank you for clarity.
Man I love Vivaldi and community even more after this tiny bug pest.
Wish I could help beyond registering bugs and voting!!!

@ybjrepnfr yes I have restarted multiple times. And if starting Vivaldi fresh every day and sometimes multiple times during the day counts then I believe yes as well.

I have implemented a restoration mechanism that builds on the data still existing in the settings and the files on the disk. It is currently going through a peer-review here in-house. I am hoping to push it to main code branch later today. That means that it might get it into a minor release that is planned tomorrow.

this morning i feel very privileged, coz upon launching
6.1.3001.3
i was gifted with a special two-for-one offer! how could i possibly refuse?- all the feeds were "missing" again from the feeds panel [they're not ofc truly missing, being available in the feeds tab, which i keep precautionarily pinned for just this reason]
- a gobsmacking amount of necro-fetching had occurred during this launch [coz they were not there last night when i closed vivaldi], refetching hundreds of old feeds from as far back as five years, right up to this week! impressive...

@ltgorm I have the same issue with the feeds, I could attach the same screenshot. I tried to add a new feed, hoping that it will refreshing the readable feed list on the side panel. No. It become the only one readable and it went to the end of my original list at the feed settings.
By other reason I reindexed the mails as described here: https://help.vivaldi.com/mail/mail-advanced/troubleshooting-and-debugging-vivaldi-mail/#re-index-your-db
And after that I have lost my last and only feed in the side panel, but fortunately the list of feeds is intact in the settings.
Maybe it helps to solve this problem, I am waiting for the new snapshot! -
@vandorrr Unfortuantely, the new snapshot does not solve this problem.
-
@vandorrr what is the version number of that snapshot?
-
@ltgorm Vivaldi 6.1.3023.3 (Official Build) (64-bit)
-
@vandorrr at my home Vivaldi, my feeds are readable, but there is no installed mail account for handling.
-
OK - that build should have the fix Do you see any errors or warning messages in Activity log in Mail Status popup window (opened by the Mail Status button in the status bar)?
-
@vandorrr You don't need any mail account. It should work fine to only have feeds. Maybe I am misunderstanding you here.
-
@ltgorm No, I do not think so. I really wrote about what happened with my last added feed after reindexing the mail db.

@ltgorm after restarting Vivaldi:

@vandorrr can you do my a big favor? Open the browser, open a new tab. Enter the url vivaldi://inspect/#apps. Select the inspect link for the main.html page. See picture:
Then you get the debug dialog for the vivaldi client. I want you to check the version of the db and the status of the filters table in the db. Make sure you do not delete any data from those tables. So avoid pressing any buttons that want to clear data or delete records.
First thing is to see if you have the right version of the db. Open the IndexedDB storage folder and select the M3v1 database. Then you should see the version. See picture:
It should be version 1990Next is to check the contents of the filters table and see if there are filters for Feeds there. Expand the filters table in the list of tables for M3v1 db. Select the index for [accountId+path]. Then you should see entries for the filters ordered by what we call AccountId+path. See if you can find some that are for accountId Feeds. See picture:
Please report to me the version and the number of Feeds filters you find.
Then close the debug dialog window.
