Strange Address Bar Suggestions
-
Update: I'm pretty sure this is a bug at this point. Vivaldi is still showing bookmark suggestions in the address bar for bookmarks which were deleted over a year ago, on different computers.
I think I need to report this as a bug.
Original Post: I would like to know if there's a way to cause Vivaldi to refresh the address-bar auto-complete suggestions based on my current bookmarks and history? The reason I ask this is because the Vivaldi address keeps making unusual suggestions when I start typing a web-address into it. It suggests places I've removed from my history and are not stored in my bookmarks. I have confirmed these places are not in my profile's history or bookmarks, yet it keeps suggesting them.
I moved to Vivaldi about 6-months ago. I don't remember what process I used to create my profile, but I know I imported my bookmarks from my Firefox somehow. I think I may have also imported my history at that time, but I have no clear memory. Perhaps these are the reason I'm seeing these results? I don't know how Vivaldi generates the address-bar suggestions, but this behavior is becoming annoying.
Thanks for any help!

@cdobrich under vivaldi settings>search
I have everything unchecked except "show search field in address bar". So maybe uncheck something there. Probably "search in address field"I only get bookmarks when typing there now because under settings>address bar>address field dropdown, only bookmarks is checked.

I can confirm that this is still an issue. Recently i've cleared all browser data except passwords and bookmarks, but address bar suggests sites that i've visited a long time ago but they are not in my bookmarks. My only guess is that it's somehow related to data sync between browsers.

When you delete bookmarks, do you empty the trash afterwards? I think maybe this is necessary to prevent them from being referenced (or coming back somehow).
