Edit a new bookmark in the bookmark dialog right after adding it.

There are over 10 different ways you can add new Bookmarks in Vivaldi (see them all in Tip #137). If you’re in the habit of editing bookmarks’ titles, descriptions, nicknames, and/or folders they’re in, you can open the bookmark dialog to do so. For example, if you added a bookmark from the button on the Address Bar, click it again to open the dialog, or use the bookmarking Keyboard Shortcut a second time.

In case you edit the bookmark right after adding it more often than not, you can make Vivaldi open the dialog as you’re adding the new bookmark. To do that:

  1. Go to Settings > Bookmarks.
  2. Enable “Always Open Bookmark Dialog”.

Exclude accounts you’ve added to Lists from your Vivaldi Social Home feed.

To hide Lists’ posts from Home:

  1. Go to a list’s page.
  2. Click on “Show Settings”,
  3. Toggle on “Hide these posts from home”.

Press Ctrl + Enter to send a message in Vivaldi Mail.

When you already have your fingers on the keyboard when typing a message in Vivaldi Mail, it’s easier to use a Keyboard Shortcut to send the email than to look for the “Send” button on a toolbar.

When you’re ready to send the email, just press Ctrl + Enter (Cmd + Enter on macOS). It’ll also close the composer, allowing you to move on to the next message or continue browsing.

Discover more Mail shortcuts in Settings > Keyboard > Mail or on Vivaldi Help.

Make use of the blogging platform’s Spotlight mode to focus on the block you’re working on.

To enable Spotlight mode:

  1. In the top right corner of the editor, click on Options.
  2. Enable Spotlight mode.
