    Tip #780

    Switch Speed Dials from the right-click menu.

    Have you hidden the navigation bar on the Start Page for a more minimalistic look, but still want to access your various Speed Dial groups? Luckily, Vivaldi offers you an alternative navigation option.

    To switch Speed Dial groups:

  • Right-click on an empty area on the Start Page.
  • Click on the Speed Dial group’s name you want to switch to.

    Tip #769

    Make the most of Speed Dials and Widgets by combining them on your Start Page.

    The Start Page is for populating it with your favorite and most used bookmarks – Speed Dials. To take it to the next level, you can also add Widgets to each Speed Dial group, creating unique dashboards that meet your browsing needs.

    To add a new Speed Dial group:

  • Go to the Bookmark Panel or Bookmarks Manager.
  • Right-click on a folder and select “Use as Speed Dial”.
  • To add Widgets to the Speed Dial:

  • Go to the Speed Dial group you want to add widgets to.
  • Click on “Widget” at the bottom of the page.
  • Click on the one you want to add.
  • Repeat to add all the widgets you need.

    Now with keyboard navigation :)

    #HTML #Speeddial #epiphany #gnome

    #gnome web or #epiphany is my new main browser. I love the reduced interface.
    Only thing I missed ... a #speeddial.

    But there is HTML :)

    Tip#765

    Prevent accidental Speed Dial changes by disabling drag and drop.

    After having spent time on making your Start Page perfect by rearranging and customizing your Speed Dials, it would be a shame if things got disarranged because you accidentally clicked and dragged a Speed Dial. Luckily, there’s a setting to prevent it from happening.

    To disable drag and drop:

  • Go to Settings > Start Page > Speed Dial.
  • Disable “Allow Drag and Drop Reordering”.

    Tip #736

    Choose the Speed Dial group you want to open the Start Page with.

    We all have our preferred workflows and it’s great when the tools you use are able to adapt to that workflow. That’s why in Vivaldi you can choose what gets shown to you when you open the Start Page. Is it always the Speed Dial with your most important bookmarks or is it the one you viewed most recently?

    To choose the view the Start Page is opened with:

  • Go to Settings > Start Page > Reopen Speed Dial with.
  • Select between:
    • Last Selected Group,
    • First Group (reorder groups using drag and drop on the navigation bar).

    #VivaldiBrowser team has just released a new desktop update, Vivaldi 7.5
    https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-on-desktop-7-5/
    I personally love the new smooth way of interacting with Speed Dials and Dashboard elements (Widgets), the new Mail and Calendar look, as well as the new Ad Blocker supported rules (badfilter, strict3p, and strict1p).

    P.S. Related to the **real bugs** hotel: https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-on-desktop-7-5/#:~:text=We%20squashed%20bugs.%20But%20we%E2%80%99re%20kind%20to%20the%20real%20ones. Does anyone know where I can find the #drill in the photo? I like it. It must be as powerful as #VivaldiBrowser. Maybe it even has a button to change its colour :)
    Please, do you know where to get it from? Possibly on the Vivaldi Store? TY!🙏

    Thinking about ditching Vivaldi. It's become too unstable and resource-hungry on Linux.

    I need a browser that supports Speed Dial and Workspace. Brave is my secondary browser — solid overall, but it lacks those two feature I really rely on.

    Any recommendations?

    Tip #689

    Hide seldom used buttons on Vivaldi’s Start Page on your mobile for a cleaner look.

    While customizing the appearance of the Start Page is fun, you probably don’t do it very often. The same goes for manually adding new Speed Dial bookmarks. If that’s the case, feel free to hide one or both of the buttons in Vivaldi on Android and iOS and use alternative routes on occasions you do need to access these features.

    To hide the buttons from the Start Page:

  • Tap on the “Customize” button on the Start Page.
    Alternatively, go to Settings > Start Page.
  • Toggle off “Customize Start Page Button” and/or “Show Add Button”.
  • When these buttons have been hidden, tap on the 3 dot menu in the top right corner of the Start Page and select “Customize Start Page” to access customization settings. To add new Speed Dial bookmarks, select the right Speed Dial folder when adding an open web page as a bookmark or add one manually in the Bookmarks Panel.
