Where's the Delete Session button?
-
I think there is no need to re-add a Delete button, you can use Sessions Panel.
-
Even if it is possible to delete a session via the sessions panel (just now I tried, and it works! hurrah! I had the same problem – which is why I looked for this discussion) – I think it would be good to have a delete button.
My own practice is to store a set of opened tabs in a session 'for later' (not 'forever') and after one or two weeksat the most I delete the stored session. So a delete button would be convenient.

@rzydenbos Upvote existing feature request "Bring back the delete button for "Open saved Sessions" window"
-
Yes please! I mistakenly forgot to click 'this window only' and ended up with a session of 209 tabs, instead of just six! I used to be able to delete a bad session, but I don't see how to do that now.

@DoctorG Why? What is the problem with having Open, Delete and Cancel buttons which are the 3 basic operations users need?

There is no problem for me. Vivaldi developers of user interface decided to have no Delete.

Hi DoctorG, I'm using sessions quite regularly, and sometimes I make the mistake of having a second window with more tabs in the second plane when I save the session. I would like to be able to delete those sessions I don't need, as otherwise. What's the point of having sessions if I have a mess when looking at my sessions? Shouldn't it be better if I delete the irrelevant ones to have them organised out of clog?
-
@DoctorG Is there any extensions to add a delete button in Vivaldi as clearly many people in the community don't have the same opinions from the developers? Thanks for your reply.

@Translucido So far I found this extension that can Save, Update and Delete sessions, also can save all the sessions to a file or loading from a file, which is very helpful if someone wants to do a backup of their sessions. It is not ideal because Chrome said "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." but I couldn't find what practices are those.

Hi, we have a feature request for this but it have exactly 4 user votes since a Year.
It will not come back.https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/94006/bring-back-the-delete-button-for-open-saved-sessions-window
-
@mib2berlin Probably because the users didn't know they could vote?
-
@mib2berlin Checking in that forum I realised I can edit, organise and delete my sessions using the left panel, which is exactly what I needed. All the best.

More than 2 years later.
There is no delete session button again (or it was never added?).Vivaldi version: 7.4.3684.50 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
-
The delete session button was removed from session save dialog popup. No goal of dev team to add it again.
Session can be deleted in Session Panel.
-
@DoctorG
Wow thanx!
And also.. bad..I had to add it to toolbar just to delete a session..
Then I removed it from toolbar again.I guess I will have to add and remove it when ever I want to delete a session?
Weird choice, but a choice none the less.And the tutorial is wrong.
There is no quick command.

Just let the Sessions Panel button stay in panel bar.
Removing an re-adding is too much business. -
@DoctorG
I don't want it there. -
@DumbJetty Typing sess works for me to see the correct command in Quick Commands.
And typing session panel works for me, too.
-
Weird.. Maybe that search only works if you have it in the sidebar?
I don't have open session panel.
open saved session opens the list that doesn't have the delete button. So that's null and void to use.
-
@DumbJetty Quick command session panel does only shows up if you have such panel added.
