Classic Images (GitHub)
Reload Images (GitHub)
Download Control only on GitHub
ViolentMonkeyThe other extension I have require a button, so they obviously don't work.

Polyglot Wikipedia also works fine ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
-
Ublock (https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/ublock/?display=en) and Umatrix (https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/umatrix/?display=en) also work fine.
-
MEGA works too.
-
The only extension i'm using to any browser: fb purity - works fine.
I'm testing battlefield hardline and battlelog plugin works.
-
@An_dz: User Agent Switcher needs button, needn't? How can you use it regularly? :ohmy:
-
Thanks @spectatorx I installed FB purity from www.fbpurity.com/install.htm using chrome icon because of I don´t get chrome or opera, I have yandex.

I could not use ClassicImages.I downloaded it from .zip file because I don´t use opera anymore, I upgrade to new yandex so I installed it but It don´t appear in contextual menu
see the notice at extension panel:

Anybody suggested earlier to install chrome extensions via CRX-downloader. I did it, but it's any problem with it.
I downloaded the right CRX-file, and renamed extension to ZIP. I could extract the folders and files from ZIP. But…all files are "empty". If I want it open, it blinks once, and nothing. Can anybody help me: :ohmy:
-
I tried to install five or six different unpacked extensions from their profile folders, but every one failed, returning the "no manifest" error.

see the notice at extension panel:
It's a warning (advertencia) not an error. It works perfectly fine. Just right-click any image and seek for Image Properties…
If you want to get rid of this warning just open manifest.json and remove that key (developer).
@all
If having difficulties installing unpacked extensions see my guide: https://vivaldi.net/forum/all/1298-tutorial-installing-any-extension -
@An_dz: Thanks the guide. I use this way, too. But it's a bit annoying to search the proper folder via extension name. I used to search in *.json files in the Extension folder with Total Commander Find option. It would be more elegant to get the extensions directly from Chrome site.
-
I was able to install my first extension (yay!) - Auto Copy - and I am pleased to report that it can be added to the list of working extensions.
-
Four of my extensions reported working so far.
I can add the remaining 8 to the list, too (though StrappedPin doesn't make a whole lot of sense to install without pinned tabs ). -
Extensions are not officially supported yet. They will be, but it was said this feature is not enabled yet in the current snapshot releases.
So what ever extensions works for you and is reported here, its absolutely just pure luck. I think most ones will not work correctly at all. I would wait until they announce extensions support officially before testing this feature or reporting bugs.
A future snapshot could break your working extensions as well as the feature is even in beta yet. And some of your bugs could be related to actually having the extensions enabled. :woohoo:
-
@terere: Of course I know (and I think, all commenters knows), that extension support is in early phase. But many extensions are essential in the daily use of Vivaldi to feel the Opera-feeling, and they can work already in this technical version.
I think, more people will use and test the technical preview, if they can feel via the working extensions, that Vivaldi is really comfortable. But I'm waiting excitedly the process of development the real supporting of extensions.
-
But how can you guys start to test extensions when even basic things are not working yet?
Personally the browser is not usable yet for daily browsing at all. So why would someone even bother with installing his favorites extensions. In particular when they can be gone in the next snapshot.
