Maetras Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Hey, I would like to know if it's possible to change the web search icon to the safari icon. I have attached pictures of the ones I mean. I just find them really ugly and I would love to be able to change them to the safari one. Many thanks. Edited August 13, 2018 by Maetras Link to comment
vitor Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Welcome @Maetras, No, there is no way to change those icons. As you might’ve guessed, they’re generic so as to fit with any web browser the user might have. Link to comment
Jono Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Yeah, I'd also like to be able to change those icons for the default Safari icon. I really dislike them, to the point that I don't search for bookmarks in Alfred 🙁 I was wondering if it's possible to create a separate workflow to search Safari's bookmarks? Just so that we could change the icon to use one of our choosing 🙂 Link to comment

Jono Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 @deanishe Thanks. I looked at this last night but when I try to run it I get this error Link to comment

I knew about adding it to Accessibility, Full Disk Access etc. but didn't know about adding it to Developer Tools 😃 I updated the icon of the workflow, and the script filters for Bookmarks, History etc. but it's still showing your icon. Is the workflow pulling that icon in from somewhere else? How do I change the icon to show for my bookmarks when I use the workflow? 🙂 <edit>Actually scratch that, I can see I can replace them by opening the workflow in Finder. Thanks for this!</edit> Edited February 25, 2020 by Jono Found the answer to my question Link to comment
Jono Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 @deanishe …I guess I spoke too soon. Once I select a bookmark in Alfred and hit Return to open it nothing happens 😊 Any idea why that could be? Link to comment
deanishe Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 No. What does the debugger log say? Link to comment
Jono Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Oh, hang on …user error, sorry! Link to comment

Jono Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I was trying to strip out parts of the workflow that I didn't want. I guess I 'stripped out' too much 😊 deanishe 1 Link to comment
deanishe Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Yeah, I'd be careful what you delete. It's a pretty complex beast. Perhaps you could just clear the keywords on features you don't want. But I don't really understand why you'd want to cripple such an awesome workflow Link to comment
Jono Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Good idea, I've removed some of the keywords. …and yeah, I'll actually use quite a few functions of the workflow, not just regular bookmarks 😃 Link to comment
deanishe Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I've missed having you use my workflows, tbh. Whenever I released one, I always hoped you'd start using it, change all the icons to better ones and then give them to me to add to the next version Jono 1 Link to comment
Jono Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hah, maybe I will in the future! 😃 Link to comment
Jono Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 …so a year later and the Safari Assistant workflow doesn't work for me anymore 🙁 I don't suppose anything's changed in Alfred that allows changing the default bookmark icon, is there? 🤔 Link to comment

(Not that I plan on resurrecting the workflow unless Apple uncripples Safari's extension APIs.) 1 hour ago, Jono said: I don't suppose anything's changed in Alfred that allows changing the default bookmark icon, is there? 🤔 Nope, afraid not. But I'm trying to persuade @Andrew to add support for showing custom file icons instead of the filetype icons, which would open the door to exporting your bookmarks as .webloc or .url files with whatever icons you like.

I guess I need to dig a little deeper to make sure I 'got 'em all'! 19 hours ago, deanishe said: Nope, afraid not.

There are over 30 icons in there. 3 minutes ago, Jono said: I guess I need to dig a little deeper to make sure I 'got 'em all'! There are a bunch of icons in the scripts subdirectory for the workflow actions. The workflow doesn't generate or cache any icons, though, so they should all be in the workflow folder.

Actually, it would be great if there was just an option to show the bookmark icon of your default browser, like it does in Spotlight 🙂 Link to comment
