How to configure the path in linux?

[Sparklytical]

Since using /opt/vivaldi-snapshot/resources/vivaldi this as application path does not work

[LonMcGregor]

In what way does it not work? Do you get any error messages?

@LonMcGregor The problem is that we (Linux users) have the Viv install dir the same as you have in the x.xx.xxxx.x (version) dir, i.e., these two are "equal":

• Linux: /opt/vivaldi-snapshot/resources/vivaldi/
• Windows: C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\3.0.1874.27\resources\vivaldi\

…and you detect the folder in the script (because who would want to change the config every update), thus it cannot work if the version dir is missing (and the same if the config goes even to the resources/vivaldi dir).

//EDIT: clarification and \Application\

Another thing that came to my thought is that the user-added files don't get overwritten upon update.

But as I can see, you remove them, anyway.

    newest_vivaldi = os.path.join(CONFIG['application_path'], matches[0], 'resources', 'vivaldi')

I'll look into that

I've pushed a potential fix, let me know if it works or not

[Sparklytical]

using path asshell "application_path": "/opt/vivaldi-snapshot/", worked. One suggestion, how about you try mixing it with Jdhooks? Since it also has an option to directly switch mods off inside the settings panel? one will not need to edit the mods again inside config.json file.

I haven't looked at that before - could be interesting
