Post 2.4 – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1497.4

@mossman Personally, I can't be bothered to set up multiple Vivaldi accounts and go through the trouble of linking multiple user profiles to multiple accounts on mutiple devices - so for me it's a waste of time!
When I first heard about it I thought: set up a second account for work and it will automatically appear on all my machines! But that's not how it works at all...
-
@mossman Perhaps there should be a distinction between profiles and accounts. Right now, adding a new profile only means adding a new account, so as of now: a profile is equal to an account. However, you seem to want it to work in differently. If I understood you correctly, you want profiles to be independent from accounts so that one account can have multiple profiles, so that one account can contain more than one profile. Is that correct?

Yes. And all this "accounts", "people", "users", "profiles" stuff is WAY too confusing!
For me it's only interesting if I have ONE Vivaldi sync account which itself contains multiple profiles... so I can install Vivaldi somewhere, do sync ONE TIME and then instantly switch between "work", "personal", "research" etc. with all associated bookmarks and settings.

@mossman to me makes sense as it is, each profile has his own set of data and they don't see each other, so yeah, you basically have to setup your settings for each profile, including the sync settings.
For example if I have a guest profile at home for people visiting me and wanting to have a quick look at their gmail account etc, and then I want to sync my profile to the Vivaldi installed at my work PC, I for sure don't want to get the guest profile data synced on my work PC.I would assume the guest "person" in Vivaldi is not synced and clears on exit in any case, even in my scenario.
But anyway, for that kind of privacy concern we have operating system logins...
-
@mossman In that case, maybe you should open a feature request where accounts and profiles are separated in such than:
-
An account stores and syncs profiles
-
A profile stores bookmarks, settings, extensions, cookies, browsing history, settings, etc.

@jenoki: Confirmed

@Para-Noid : Support for AMP?
-
@Jenoki Seems that's broken in Shapshot and in the internal test version as well, so I expect it will be repaired post haste.

The Session Buddy extension icon disappears in this snapshot. Going back to Vivaldi.2.4.1462.4.x64.exe snapshot and the icon reappears. I have 26 extensions installed and all icons stay except Session Buddy.

Excellent browser. Removed chrome from my laptop. I need one help.
When I watch video from websites other than youtube it is really difficult to chromecast. Let me explain.
For those websites I can only cast the whole tab (this is not an issue).
When I full screen that video it occupies my whole screen (in a classic manner) then I had to keep that video run in my laptop whole window so that it keep casting. But in chrome this is dealt differently. Even after I cast the video and make the video full screen it does not take up the whole screen. It take up only the whole tab and I have access to other tabs or even minimize the chrome browser as a whole.
Thanks. -

Hi, may you open a new thread about the problem and add a link to such a page.
I mainly use Chrome just for Chromecast but would like to fix issues with Vivaldi.
Have no page ready for testing now.Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin: Thanks. I posted my question in the Vivaldi forum. I remember I asked this few months back in twitter. Got a reply that the team is working on it. Not sure.

I just had a recurrence of the issue where text is typed in reverse in a textbox. It only happened once on an Amazon product page. Haven't been able to reproduce. I remember this was fixed a while back, but it might be back again.

Under vivaldi://bookmarks/: Immediately after editing bookmarks, the first page loaded loads fine but locks and is unresponsive. It happened with both internal pages and web pages. Only a restart of browser cures it.
Editing was rearrangement, deletions, folder creation.
If already reported, sorry, I'm uncertain on that.
I really like that context menu with 'edit' for the bookmarks.
It is much more convenient. -
The importance of Locking Speed Dials is severely overlooked. Please add this functionality!!

Session Buddy extension icon disappears in this snapshot
Dunno what your OS is, but i can confirm it also vanishes in Linux [tested also in virgin "Test" 2nd user]. How odd.
