Extensions' keyboard shortcuts don't work

DoctorG

@TheBestPessimist Ok, no body promised anything.

6.2.3105.43 (Stable channel) (64-bit) on Windows 11 Pro 22621.2215, but haven't found any working extension shortcuts so far.

Extension shortcuts seem to be broken since 6.2 update ; reported bug ; VB-99601, but still unconfirmed.

Vivaldi version 6.2.3105.45 (Stable channel) Windows 10, extension shortcut is working on my side.

The extension was tested:

Bitwarden
uBlock Origin
Violent Monkey

It's broken when multiple Vivaldi windows are open; seems like the last opened window is considered the only eligible target to open the popup at; at least on Linux/KDE.

Behavior described in https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/662246 and by a couple other comments since then still persists.

I do believe the "activate" shortcut likely requires pop-up while the "lock" shortcut does not. I saw a couple of mentions of pop-up behavior on this thread, and it appears that the "activate" shortcut for the Vimium extension is non-responsive, as well.

Now using 6.4.3160.44 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit) on Manjaro.

@leegenes Input Vimium in Quick Commands and the action popup will show, this can be bound to any keyboard shortcut. Well, not that straightforward, it’s not part of command chains, but you could work around it. Anyway, the Quick Commands way is valid.

Thanks, @luetage. Didn't know that. It also works for 1password, which is great. Appreciate you pointing me in that direction. This is a major improvement to my workflow, as trivial as it seems.

Having the default functionality for something like this would definitely still be better, even with the workaround being a not-so-painful one. Acknowledging that it's likely not a simple fix if it's persisted this long though, and appreciate the team's effort on it over the years.

Same issue for me. Bitwarden keyboard shortcut not triggering. Tried changing the shortcut combination, still the same issue. It works perfectly fine in Edge, just not Vivaldi (v6.4 as of this writing). This is on Windows 11.

I posted about this 2 years ago. This is literally the only thing keeping me and others off Vivaldi... How is this STILL an issue?

It's maddening.

I just switched to Vivaldi today after getting tired with some of issues I was having with Firefox, and I'm having the same issue with the 1Password extension shortcut not working.

Confirmed that this is the issue on macOS as well. Was this detail (new windows stealing eligibility for extension shortcuts) included in the VB-99601 bug report?

For me (coming from Opera) it is the same with another extension. It works when I configure the shortcuts. But after restarting Vivaldi it no longer works.

I would like a solution to the issue.

Hi, I reopen, updated the bug report Feb. 2024 and send a message to the OP but never got an answer.
We have not an exact description which extension is used and how to reproduce it.

VB-99601
Extensions shortcuts not working after latest update

Is all we got.
I cant read trough 14 pages.
Please, if you can give instruction how and with which extension it doesn't work.
I can test in Vivaldi 7.1.3570.50 with a clean profile and add it to the report.

Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin Hi there,

1Password (and other password managers with a quick opener toggle) have had this issue for years. To reproduce it - download the 1Password extension, sign in. The only shortcut that works for some reason is “Lock”. The rest don’t work, and don’t permit you to make them a global shortcut either (a work around suggested in other threads).

Thank you for making a bug report.

@brandonclark
Hi and thank you, it was no my report.
Can I post your description as comment in the bug report?
I don't have a 1Password account but the Vivaldi team have for sure.

Cheers, mib

brandonclark

@mib2berlin feel free to!

@mib2berlin Was this fixed...? Opened up Vivaldi on my Mac and to my surprise, 1password's extension shortcut has been working consistently? Knock on wood.

Edit: Still broken on Windows, but usable on Mac again!

@brandonclark Extensions Shortcuts still broken. Tested on tab shelf & TickTick.
