Wrong website is accessed after copy pasting URL
-
Steps to reproduce:
- I open a new tab
- Paste a copied link in the address bar
- Press Enter.
Expected result: Link I copy-pasted is accessed.
Actual result: The last keyword of the link is accessed as a website.
Example:
-
I copy-paste https://9gag.com/gag/awAPP4r and press Enter
-
It tries to access www.awAPP4r.com instead
-
I copy paste https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000154/?ref_=tt_cl_t1 and press Enter
-
It goes to http://www.t1.com/ instead
Repro is pretty low but it does happen often enough to notice it. I searched and didn't find it reported.
Using the last stable version.

I can't reproduce, all links you posted go correctly to the locations once pasted in a new tab address bar.
I suspect you have some extension interfering with Vivaldi. -
Ok I reproduced it, I tried it a bunch of times until it happened again and paid attention to this "random" bug.
This happens because while switching from Ctrl+T to Ctrl+V, I keep pressed the Ctrl button and then I press Enter pretty fast before I can lift the Ctrl button.
So it does Ctrl+Enter on the link.
- Press Ctrl+T to open a new tab.
- Switch to Ctrl+V to paste the link.
- Press Enter fast, before un-pressing the Ctrl button.
This issue does not happen in Chrome however.

No redirection.
URL 1 shows a cat
URL 2 displays the millionaire M. Gibson-
www.awapp4r.com’s server IP address could not be found.
-
http://www.t1.com/ - something related to MS server.
It seems the issue lies on your Network.

It seems you misunderstood the bug, perhaps I was not clear enough in my second post. The issue is not with a network redirection after I paste some links.
The issue is that if you copy-paste a link in the address bar and press CTRL+ENTER instead of just ENTER, Vivaldi creates a different address with words from my link, instead of the one I copy pasted.
For example:
- Open a new tab
- Copy paste this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AQFQMeOAig
- Press CTRL+ENTER
- Browser will try to go to http://www.0aqfqmeoaig.com
(notice the 0aqfqmeoaig in both links)
Also happens in Incognito mode.
Issue does not occur in Chrome. If you press CTRL+ENTER it opens the address and does not create a new one based on words from the link, like Vivaldi does.

Ok, tried and it seems a bug to me, ctrl-enter should change the TLD of the current url (according to settings/address bar/domain expansion) and go to the root of the site currently in the address bar, removing everything after the site address, but if the address isn't already entered it removes the actual site address from the url you're pasting leaving the rest, which at this point it's just garbage, and tries to go to that url.
For now you can work around it by removing all the TLDs in the domain expansion field, so ctrl-enter won't be a bother for you anymore. -

@iAN-CooG @apekiller sorry for the trouble and thanks for reaching out, I can't reproduce this issue.
Are you able to reproduce this issue on a standalone install? -
I confirmed it a while ago: https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/293544 - gave all the instructions and all I got was a couple of downvotes?!
-
@gaelle enter something in settings/address bar/Domain Expansion as explained, at that point ctrl+enter will truncate what's copied in the address field
-
@apekiller if you report it on vivaldi.com/bugreport and give us the VB-number we'll link it to the issue above and you'll be notified once it's fixed and released on Vivaldi stable.
-
@gaelle I reported it a while back and all I got was a reply that they could not reproduce it.
Well, I sent them another reply mentioning that other VB number, hopefully now they are able to reproduce it.
Thanks!

Seeing this as well on v2.5.1525.40.
I hit it every now and then, and was never sure of the exact cause. Now I know.
