6.6 | Bookmarks nicknames not working in URL bar
-
I saw that the topicstarter in the other (closed) thread said that this bug is fixed. But with me, everytime I type a one character nickname in an already active tab (with website loaded), it tries to search in Google for the typed text. So perhaps https://forum.vivaldi.net/user/sinix can explain what exactly has been fixed for him. Because my bug hasn't been fixed in Viv 6.6.

Can you perhaps ask them to assign a developer to this bugreport? I mean this is just weird.

No they can't, they can only report and confirm bugs. The dev managers can allocate programmers to various tasks, volunteer testers have no such power.

OK I see what you mean, so it's all up to them. However, I assume bugreporters can at least kindly ask them to fix those bugs that have not been fixed in months.

I'm unsure whether it's related, but my bookmark nicknames stopped working after the 6.7.3329.17 version update, and I discovered that I could get them working again by re-ticking Bookmarks in the Drop-Down Menu Priority list. It appears that Bookmarks Nicknames (a separate item) has a dependency on Bookmarks that didn't exist previously.

I'm afraid it doesn't fix the problem that I reported. It's so weird that they forgot to fix this stuff, which should be quite simple to do.

Same here. Can't use bookmarks nicknames separately without enabling bookmarks. And it worked for me before last update.

I see what you mean, but to clarify, that's not the bug that I reported. Why would you like to disable Bookmarks in the addressbar anyway?
But the bug that I reported is about one character nicknames not working in an already active tab, so when a website is already loaded and you type in nickname c, it will search for it in Google for example. You can not fix this with changing the Drop-Down Menu Priority.

Bookmark nicknames
not working again after 6.7.3329.17 (Stable channel) (64-bit) update -
single char nicknames work for me after update to 6.7.3329.21.
//EDIT: Works not always. -
Single or double nicknames still not working for me after 6.7.3329.21 update.
-
Strange, first typing
d
works for me and i get the bookmarked page with the nick opened.
Typing second timed
the default search tick in.
Weird issue in 6.7 Stable.I updated tracker for bug VB-102765
-
Hmmm. Weird. Thanks for updating
-
@DoctorG If there is something highlighted in the address bar and you try to type the single letter nickname which will replace it the problem happens. If you use the "delete" or "backspace" key first to clear the address bar the nickname will work as expected
-
For me, even with a new tab and clean address bar, entering any nickname does not work.
