vivaldi auto complete URL

[djnoah]

v6.8.3381.46 on osx 14.5

When I type

"www.y" in the URL entry field. The URL auto completes to "www.youtube.com/watch?v=12345678901"

What I would prefer is just the bass URL to appear as part of the auto completion of "www.youtube.com"

Is there a setting to just complete to just the hostname instead of including the entire URL?

Cheers

@djnoah There are better ways to tackle this. First of all you could use a bookmark and a nickname for it, which is the most direct way to get to an often used page. But what are you doing on youtube if not searching for a video? Create a search engine for youtube, give it a nickname (e.g. y), then type y searchterm into the address field to get to the results.

How do I create a custom nickname?

@djnoah Open the bookmarks panel, click on a bookmark and input the nickname in the nickname field on the bottom. Or for search engine nickname open vivaldi://settings/search, click on a search engine, input a nickname in the nickname field.
