Allow custom folder icons for bookmarks
-
Hi.
I follow these instructions in order to customize bookmarks thumbnails (folder or not).
Vivaldi shows me that the change made , but the bookmark icon dont change :
Is there a bug or i do something wrong ?
Thanks.//MODEDIT: You're not doing it wrong, this feature doesn't exist. Therefore I'm leaving your post as a feature request for allowing users to change the bookmarks folder icons
There is also a similar feature request: Option for Colored Bookmark Folders

Thumbnail != icon. Even if you could change the icon by messing with files, I suppose V would continue showing the folder icons for folders.
// Just realised this is in the FR category. Nevertheless, what I said is valid.
// Oh, I’m really slow today. I see you got answers elsewhere…

@potmeklecbohdan The function of "Change thumbnail" at vivaldi://bookmarks/ , just not works.
You said everything but nothing about the important thing. -
@Buglocker It works, it changes the bookmark's thumbnail. However, you're trying to change the icon, which is a totally different thing, as already mentioned by @potmeklecbohdan. This feature does not exist yet, therefore I edited your post and left it here as a feature request.

@Buglocker
Finally I found a solution with this css code that I found on the internet./* RESTORE ICON FROM VERSIONS PRIOR TO V3.3 */ svg.folder-icon path { d: path("M6.16,2.5H1.6A1.12,1.12,0,0,0,.5,3.63v8.75A1.12,1.12,0,0,0,1.6,13.5H14.4a1.12,1.12,0,0,0,1.1-1.12V5.76a1.19,1.19,0,0,0-1.1-1.23H7.76Z") !important; } /* CHANGING COLORS */ svg.folder-icon svg path { fill: rgb(255, 255, 0) !important; fill-opacity: 1 !important; stroke: rgb(0, 0, 0) !important; /* OUTLINE */ stroke-width: 1.0 !important; stroke-opacity: 1 !important; } /* INCREASING SIZE OF FOLDER ICON IN BOOKMARKS BAR */ .bookmark-bar button img.folder-icon, .bookmark-bar button svg.folder-icon { width: 24px !important; height: 24px !important; }

@Buglocker Oh, didn't know you wanted to change all the folder icons together. The instructions I gave in the other post were for changing an individual folder icon.
Sorry, could have helped you sooner...
-
@nomadic No , you have right. The perfect one for me , would be a custom icon. But this is also a solution , since the preset icon is very bad and there is no solution for custom icon.
Thanks. -
@Buglocker said in Allow custom folder icons for bookmarks:
there is no solution for custom icon.
Did to ever try the solution from the last post I made?

If you find an SVG icon you like, I can prepare it for you. Then you would just need to find the
data-id
.Just send me a link to an icon. I could also look into making a regular PNG image work.
-
@nomadic Nope. Its a little complicated. I 'll wait for a future update to fix that.
Thanks. -
Yes, I would very much want a bookmark folder custom icon to readily differentiate folders from one another. Just like there are different icons for regular bookmarks! This used to be a standard feature in Firefox by property clicking on the folder icon and changing the icon from a vanilla folder icon to an icon that could identify folder. That went away as Firefox moved to a more chrome-like world. I switched to Basilisk for that and many other reasons. I used to be easy to do in Basilisk but then that changed. And Basilisk is beginning to fail on many chrome-centric-coded websites. So, here I am at Vivaldi which is much more flexible than other Chrome-based browsers and builds in many features that one would have to rely on extensions but using extensions can sometimes be like chasing down a rat hole.

So, you can edit bookmarks folders logos, to look better.
Example:
-
@Vivaldiscool There is some CSS code for this in Option for Colored Bookmark Folders.
-
@Pesala Yea, but custom icons that you can upload not by code?
