  1. @dencoSeca a tip on that note:

    You can already manage your bookmarks in Safari or Chrome but have Alfred open them in the "System Default Browser" which then means it would actually open in Brave if you have Brave setup as your system default.

    It is inconvenient to have to manage the bookmarks in Safari and go there to make changes or add a new bookmark… but it's better than "having to use Safari" if you actually want to use Brave.

    Hope that helps.

  2. @deanishe understood. One can still be hopeful - but I also understand your point in the other thread. For those wondering about supporting other "Web Bookmarks". Here is a thread with the feature request, which as noted by @deanishe , will not be implemented because there is no public api at this point and thus it is a guessing game. 

     

     

     

    I appreciate your updates 🌸

  3. Thank you @Vero for this update. I must have missed this in-between two threads I have found here.

    I understand. I thought the fact that Brave is based on Chromium may mean that it is similar in terms of implementation with Bookmarks.

    Do you happen to know of a public issue one can upvote to get a more consistent / open implementation happening with Brave?

    Thank you again.

  4. Just for those coming here, apparently this Workflow has been discontinued. However, there is a upgraded version which has multi browser support which can be found at: https://github.com/Acidham/chromium-hist-bookmarks

    Its still made by the same person @Acidham but more feature rich.

     

    But @deanishe on that note, I hope that this workflow / feature set of having more browsers supported for the "Web Bookmark" default integration would be greatly appreciated. Especially with more and more browsers being available which are better in so many ways than Chrome. Thank you ❤.

     

  5. Hi @Subject22, that's awesome, instead of going through all the hustle of setting up a fork and all, here is literally the only change we needed for this Workflow. It's only the script that needs adjusting, here is the fully working script as suggested by @cands.

    @Subject22 I hope this makes it easy for you to update everything.

     

    # Quit Alfred 4 and his preferences
    if application id "com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred" is running then
    	tell application id "com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred" to quit
    end if
    
    set prefsWasOpen to false
    if application "Alfred Preferences" is running then
    	set prefsWasOpen to true
    	tell application "Alfred Preferences" to quit
    end if
    
    delay 1 # Wait for the processes to terminate
    
    # Restart and display processes
    tell application id "com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred" to activate
    
    if prefsWasOpen then
    	tell application "Alfred Preferences" to activate
    end if
    
    # Display Alfred
    tell application id "com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred" to search

     

  6. Hi Vero & Others,

     

    thank you for all the workarounds. I am good. It's not a pressing issue. If it's not going to happen, let's just close this thread.

    I just think that it would be great for the simplicity of Alfred to have a duplicate button in the web search list.

     

    Overall, I just like to make suggestions of UX or feature ideas that I have for a better user experience.

     

    That's all.

     

    Cheers,

    Chris

  7. As I said, it's a workaround since it does not copy everything but misses the icon.

    A clean solution would be a proper implementation without a workaround.

     

    I understand that it's probably not the highest on the list of development requests. I'm just saying I would prefer a clean interface integration that others can use easily without searching or wasting time researching (or doing it manually).

  8. Hi @Subject22, I sent you a private message with the new version. Please test it and update your main download if everything works out normally. I don't want to provide a secondary download here because it can get way too confusing by doing so, having the current version be represented in the main forum post is best I think.

  9. It's quite remarkable. I just had to updated the name "Alfred 2" to "Alfred 4" and everything still works as expected — even though this workflow is 6 years old at this point.

     

    Great stuff and I love it. Just too many times I had to go through he interface and all.

     

    I actually believe that Alfred should have a "Restart Alfred" by default.

  10. Hi @Adrian00, I am having a similar experience. It worked on Mojave and without the "Uninteligent" setting for me. Now on Catalina it's no longer working.

    I hope there will be an update sometime to support the new filesystem structure of Catalina soon and that this will also fix the issues with the Google File Stream system.

  11. I'd love to see Rich Text in the Clipboard History. Especially with a combination of "Paste as Rich Text" and "Paste as Plain Text" (default definable by the user in the Clipboard History settings.

     

    Rich Text support for the Snippets is also something I'd be looking forward to. Personally much more rarely used.

     

    The Rich text in Clipboard HIstory though ... it's huge. I always have to use a "Text Edit" file as my rich text clipboard history ?.

     

    PS. I know that other clipboard histories support this, but I am very happy with just using one app (Alfred) to do most of these things. #NoExtraBackgroundProcesses
