Hey @gruinard:

Thanks for asking! While not enabled by default, support for Vivaldi can be enabled by following these steps:

  1. Ensure that 1Password for Linux is installed along with 1Password in your browser, and that browser integration is enabled from Settings → Browser.
  2. Close 1Password completely.
  3. Pop open a terminal, and run sudo mkdir /etc/1password (if you've done this already, you can skip it).
  4. Run cd /etc/1password.
  5. Run sudo gedit custom_allowed_browsers.
  6. Paste in the appropriate browser code - such as opera or vivaldi-bin.
  7. Save the file.
  8. In terminal, run sudo chown root:root /etc/1password/custom_allowed_browsers && sudo chmod 755 /etc/1password/custom_allowed_browsers
  9. Run 1Password - it will read our new config file and make the appropriate connections.
  10. Launch your browser!

If you downloaded 1Password for Linux from the Snap Store, due to sandboxing 1Password is unable to communicate with the browsers. Using our direct downloads available here would sort everything out: Get the 1Password for Linux app

Just as an additional note, it seems like your thread caught in our spam filter and resulted in duplicates, so I've deleted them. :smile: Let me know how you get on with that, or if you run into any trouble along the way!
