EDIT: To be more specific with my feedback, in the new UI the 'FILES SAVED' column is not showing anything for all of the previous entries I'd made in v0.7. Can this be fixed? It's a huge setback and makes the v0.9 layout unusable.
- did you do the full filesystem migration yet with `archivebox update --migrate-only`?
- what OS and screen size are you viewing on? and are you looking at the admin snapshot list or the public snapshot list?
- is it just the compactness of the old emoji icons on one line you preferred? or something more than that? the reason we changed it is because we have 20+ more icons now, so it no longer fits on one line easily and we cant easily represent every plugin with only common emoji
If you're able to share one of your old snapshot folders in a new Github issue that would be super helpful as then I can reproduce what you're seeing quickly.
Ok I was missing this step. I did a migration with the command you shared and I now see the icons.
But while I can see the icons, I can't access the relevant files, the links are broken. As an example, the singlepage icon leads me to a path that is correct except for the .html in the URI.

Yes, I still prefer the previous one-line rendering. It is more compact and less busy. For my own personal use-case, I don't care for majority of the archive options.
I understand that you had to switch to a different layout given you now have 20+ icons but if there's a way I can hack it to look like the old layout that would be great. Maybe a config setting that allows power users to specify what actually shows up.

Ubuntu 24 and 1080p screen
If there is no easy fix for the broken links let me know. I'm more than happy to continue this conversation on a github ticket.
I will push a fix today for the broken links and I'll try and make the icons more compact / more similar to the old style.
Do you want the preview screenshot/thumbnail on the left also smaller/hidable or is it just the icons part that you want closer to the old format?
Making the preview thumbnail hidable would be fantastic!
(but make sure to install the newer release after that added some more bugfixes)
let me know your thoughts
I'm looking forward to updating and trying out the new features as well :)
But v0.9.x now has built-in chrome zombie killing at the start of every crawl, so it shouldnt happen anymore even if Chromium misbehaves! Definitely open a github issue if you see any performance issues at all!
Thanks for hanging in there, but I promise this release was worth the wait!
In our last big announcement in 2024 we promised a plugin marketplace, P2P archiving by connecting servers together, and better UI / peformance. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41860909
I'm pleased to share that all those promises have now been delivered! Please let me know your feedback and open issues, I'm excited to hear how the community uses this release (especially because we have 0 analytics, comments are the only feedback we get).
