Hide the EV Owner Name
-
What & Why
The mod hides this:
From the address bar until you hover over it. It is a superficial change that doesn't affect the underlying security.I won't go into great detail here, but I'm not a fan of EV Certificates, especially the emphasis on "site owners". My full description of why I would want to hide the onwer name can be found here. Suffice it to say I don't think it adds any security, and it might even be a hazard in some cases.
Installation
Installed as a [custom.css] mod:/* Use the following to hide the site info text*/ button.button-addressfield.addressfield-siteinfo.certified .siteinfo-text{ display: none } /* Include the following to display the full name on hovering */ button.button-addressfield.addressfield-siteinfo.certified:hover .siteinfo-text { display: block }

Good idea, but already done before.

I forgot this mod then I opened a site with an EV cert :3
/* Use the following to hide the site info text*/ .button-addressfield.SiteInfoButton.certified .siteinfo-text {display: none;} /* Include the following to display the full name on hovering */ .button-addressfield.SiteInfoButton.certified:hover .siteinfo-text {display: block;}

Anyway, I just noticed my link 404s there. Seems like the topic I posted in got deleted.

@luetage Whoops. Fixed. Is not the first time I invert the major with the minor

The EV certificate button is a good example of where Vivaldi inherits stupid stuff from Chromium, and then is unable to remove it even after Chromium decides it wasn't such a good idea after all

@pathduck But luckily is went in the Vivaldi UI where is easier to fiddle without having to compile the whole chromium

@Hadden89 u can simplify your code to just a single line:
.button-addressfield.SiteInfoButton.certified:not(:hover) .siteinfo-text {display: none;}
And here is my alternative version, with nicer eye candy animation... LOL
CSS code
/* EV certificate */ .SiteInfoButton.certified .siteinfo-text {transition: .25s ease-out .15s !important;} .SiteInfoButton.certified:not(:focus-within):not(:hover) .siteinfo-text {font-size:0; padding:0;}
