Save browsing history time frame problem
-
I've always had browsing history set to delete everything but the last week. Several weeks ago I tried to change this to 1 month, which didn't work out. After that I had to reset my profile, because of the update to 2.4 – I tried to set the browsing history to 1 month again, but it still saves only the last week. Don't really know what else to do, but to ask about it here. I'm on 10.13.6, latest snapshot. Can't really tell for how long this problem exists, because as said, only tried to change this recently.

Even with the extra cool features than other browsers, Vivaldi still has a long way to go.

This still doesn’t work, even after a switch to Linux. I wonder how everyone else does it.

Hi, what do you meant with "Don´t work"?
I had my setting to 3 month but changed now to one month, delete all entries (except passwords, cookies). And now?Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin It only stores a week at max for me, no matter what I set in
vivaldi://settings/privacy
. I’ve tried this on 2 different operating systems and with clean profiles. The only thing connecting these installs is Vivaldi sync.edit: cheers, luet : P

Ah OK, we have to wait for the next week then.
I will report back to you.Cheers mib

@mib2berlin ok, cheers and thanks, I look forward to your findings!

I found that saving the browsing history for the current session only now works as expected.
(VB-54428) Settings, Privacy, Save Browsing History, Session Only Does not Clear Browsing History

@Pesala I didn’t know that was broken. But my problem is the opposite. It’s not that the browsing history isn’t being deleted, but the fact that the wrong time frame is being used.

Hi, I remember today to look at my history and all is saved from Thursday 18. until today.
It looks all fine on my system, I have no idea why this not work for you even on a fresh profile.? AFAIK history is not synced, should have no influence.Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin Thank you. I have no idea, but since I first noticed this problem, which was probably 2 years ago, I had at least 5 fresh profiles and an operating system change. The only constant is sync, but I even reset sync in between… Anyway, for me anything before June 25th is already gone. History is set to 1 month for testing purposes.
