Command Chain Recipes

Mioni

I need to take the link from the news and open a site to remove the paywall, can I do this via chain?

The site to remove the paywall is: https://leiaisso.net

@Mioni the easier way would be to wait a bit for the snapshot version to hit stable. In there, when you use a chain command in a context menu you have access to special variables, like {page_url} (your use case).

With that, a chain with 1 step of 'open link in new tab' with value as 'https://leiaisso.net/{page_url}' would do the trick.

Then, customize the menu for when you right click a link (for example) and add it there.

finally, on a news site, right click on the article's link you wanna read and pick the chain.

@MasterLeo29 Thanks! I'll be waiting

Embed Youtube: takes the current video and opens it embed.

Open Link in Current Tab
Parameter: javascript:(()=>{const url=new URL(window.location.href);window.open(`${url.origin}/embed/${url.search.split("=")[1]}`,"_self")})();

Hello. Please advise if it is possible to create a chain of commands for:

Search selected text in Google in background tab?
Save a picture to a certain folder or open a picture in the background tab?
In order to hang these chains on mouse gestures.
Earlier I used to use "smartUP gestures" extension for this purpose (it's cramped like many other similar extensions), but I switched to gorgeous native mouse gestures.

I couldn't find it at random. Thank you in advance.

heres something you guys might appreciate

1.Vivadi help
2.open link in new tab Parameter:https://forum.vivaldi.net
3.Tile Vertically

and if you want you can Remap F1 to execute the command Chain and replace the help link with the command in the context menu

Tile Link (with keyboard shortcut)

We can do this from the right-click menu with a native parameter ({link_url}). When using a keyboard shortcut to trigger the chain, a bookmarklet is needed. Hover with the mouse cursor over a link and use a keyboard shortcut to execute (or open quick commands and execute the command chain from there). The delay might have to be adjusted depending on usage. 1000ms should be safe, but on some pages it might need more.

Open Link in Current Tab
Parameter: javascript:(()=>{const hover=document.querySelectorAll(":hover");for(let i=hover.length-1;i>=0;i-=1){if(hover[i].hasAttribute("href")){window.open(hover[i].href,"_blank");return}}history.replaceState({},"",location.href)})();
Delay
Parameter: 1000

@luetage

Is it possible to send keys in a Command Chain?

Like this in AHK (or a number):

Send, {LButton}

barbudo2005

@luetage

I remind you of this question.

luetage

@barbudo2005 lol, sorry. No, I can’t think of a way right now. You can simulate key and mouse events through Javascript and you can obviously give that a try, it’s not complicated, but I think it’s deemed insecure and therefore won’t work from a bookmarklet.

Share Current Page with OS Share Menu

This command chain makes it easier to share a link with additional details (when supported). It will pull the current tab's URL, title, and og:description ( a short description of the webpage's contents that page owners can choose to provide) and pass them to the OS' share dialog that can redirect you to various apps and websites where you might want to share the link.

Command Chain:

Open Link in Current Tab
Parameter: javascript:(()=>{if(navigator.share){navigator.share({title:document.title,text:document.querySelector('meta[property="og:description"]')?.content,url:location.href}).then(()=>{history.replaceState({},"",location.href)})}})();

Notice for Linux users, who would want to give this command chain a try: navigator.share doesn’t work on Chromium yet, therefore it won’t do anything.

@erazer101 Thanks for the HotkeyHighlightSearch command chain, very useful. Am I right when I say a single key shortcut, instead of a "normal shortcut like CTRL+Q, does not work?

@luetage Thanks for the DeepL command chain.

You also stated:

command chains have replaced bookmarklets

I have a bookmarklet that kills so-called stickies on a webpage, like a pop-up at the bottom of the page.

I don't know which command to use for that. This is the parameter:

javascript:(function%20()%20{%20var%20i,%20elements%20=%20document.querySelectorAll('body%20*');%20%20for%20(i%20=%200;%20i%20<%20elements.length;%20i++)%20{%20if%20([%22sticky%22,%20%22fixed%22].includes(getComputedStyle(elements[i]).position))%20{%20elements[i].parentNode.removeChild(elements[i]);%20}%20}%20})();

@luetage re your command chain Copy Page Address, can you tell me where to add the code?

I ask because after command 6, Focus Page, there is no box to add the code.
