  1. fix the bug where Choosy just disables itself on it's own. Every day it does this. Not boot related.

    If this is OS related then it's a bug. Very annoying that I can use Choosy, come back a couple of hours later when nothing seems to have changed and it has disabled itself.

  2. Choosy disabled itself before it was due to expire.

    I am running Choosy 0.9.2. In System Preferences, it says in red, "Choosy is not registered, you may use it for another 273 days." However, it has now disabled itself. I noticed earlier that in the menubar there were two Choosy menus, 0.9.2 (old icon) and 0.9.3 (triangle icon). Now there is only the 0.9.2 menu. Choosy 0.9.2 has asked in the past to upgrade to 0.9.3, and it told me then that if I did so, my trial period would be set to 90 days. That was less than 90 days ago, and I do not remember even downloading 0.9.3, but it seems to now be on my system.

    When I clicked a link a minute ago, Stainless (my #1 browser in Choosy's list) opened and loaded a redirect page saying Choosy had expired, and if I did nothing, it would continue to open Stainless.

    Admingeorgebrock (Admin, Choosy) responded

    It sounds like some confusion has occured between the two versions – one has expired and the other hasn’t. The automated update shouldn’t install a new version without asking, and when it does it should replace the old version so there are a number of issues here.

    Could you email me and I can get some more details from you?

  4. Allow choosing a browser based on which Mission Control Space is active

    For example, I would like to open links in Brave when I'm in space #1 and Chrome when I'm in spaces 2-5

  8. Links clicked in one Fluid SSB matching a rule to open in another SSB, do not open at all.

    Fluid v1.4

    The current SSB stays focused, however the Window loses focus (the Application is still the foremost application, however).

  9. Bug: Click on link, get Choosy, Chrome opens new window (wrong) but not page (blank/home instead).

    MacOS 10.13.1. Chrome 61.0.3163.100 64bit. Seems to have started in the last few weeks. Choos Safari or Firefox and those open correctly.

  10. Different options for left & right mouse clicks

    I'd like to have it so that a left click uses the default system browser, and a right click brings up Choosy, or at least Choosy's browser list in the contextual menu. There seems to be no option for this in settings or advanced rules.

  11. Always open URL on browser XYZ (even if link entered in the address bar of another browser)

    I'm not sure if this is possible or not, but just like we have the existing regular expression system plus the Firefox plugin, have the browser plugin send a given URL to Safari (for example) if the loading page matches an expression.

    Reason?? I love Firefox but I can't use it with Flash/video sites (like YouTube and Vimeo)... Forget it, it's SLOOW and borderline useless.

    I'd love this feature! :) <3

  12. enable the browser plugins to send all tabs (not just one) to a different browser

    The browser plugins are great for sending windows to a different browser, but for people like me who keep tons of tabs open at once, it'd be awesome if I could send them all to a different browser at once.

  13. hipchat adobe air app doesn't honor choosy links

    I use HipChat's desktop air app for OS X and unfortunately choosy just opens them right up in Chrome :( I saw in a previous release note that you fixed it working for air apps, maybe this one is different?

  14. Choosy does not match ReadNow.app in rule definition

    I have a rule which says "if source application is /Applications/ReadNow.app, use best running browser". However, even if I promote this rule to rule 1, when I open a link from ReadNow, I am asked to select from all running browsers instead of it Just Working and opening the link in Safari.

    Choosy works correctly with similar rules referencing other applications. What's going wrong here?

  15. Make URL field wider in rule definition window

    When I define/edit a rule, for example "Web address" "matches this regular expression", input field for that URL expression is very narrow (from https?://gitlab.com/timbercode(/.*)? I see only https?://git).

    Even if I make window wider, input field is still narrow.

  17. As an option: open Chrome in new *window*, not a new tab in existing window

    When clicking a link in e.g. Mail, it's horrible to be teleported to a workspace where I have other Chrome windows because Chrome insists on opening new windows in a new tab in a new window. This script used to work (and I was able to make Choosy use it), but now it ends up creating a second instance of Chrome (wow, had no idea that was possible with any Mac app!!). This new instance doesn't have my bookmarks and is not logged into the sites where the "original" chrome instance is logged in. That wasn't a problem before, It may have been a Chrome update that broke it, but I noticed it around the time of a recent update of Choosy...

  18. open link in current display for running browsers

    when I click a link in slack that is open on display2 (I have it set to prompt) and click a new browser, it opens on display2. but if I click an already running browser (chrome) it seems to always open the webpage on display1 (main display w/ dock) regardless of if the last active browser window was on display2. This causes me to have to click the link then having to drag the page from display1 to display2 every time. (licensed user v2.1, mojave 10.14.6, chrome+firefox+safari)

  19. Choosy 1.3 can't recognize custom Google Chrome profile directory

    Choosy only recognizes Google Chrome's profile with "Default" or "Profile x" directories.
    But a profile directory can be anything if you create it with profile-directory parameter.
    For example:
    sh
    $ open -a &quot;Google Chrome.app&quot; --args --profile-directory=&quot;foobar&quot;

    And I prefer this way because "Profile x" is not semantic.
    Please support this case.
