Selection menu items not working #159

Open pdc1 opened 6 months ago

pdc1 commented 6 months ago

I have installed and configured the latest NickelMenu (0.5.4), and I am not able to see the selection menu items. I have a Kobo Clara HD, version 4.38.21908 (8/22/23).

I tried both selection and selection_search:

menu_item : selection : Translate : nickel_browser : modal: https://translate.google.com/m?sl=auto&tl=en&q={1||%}
menu_item : selection : Wikipedia : nickel_browser : modal: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?fulltext=1&search={1|S|%}
menu_item : selection_search : Translate : nickel_browser : modal: https://translate.google.com/m?sl=auto&tl=en&q={1||%}
menu_item : selection_search : Wikipedia : nickel_browser : modal: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?fulltext=1&search={1|S|%}

And there are no additions to my select menu (see below). Am I missing something?

Seems like you're missing the search submenu. I'll take a closer look later.

Thanks! Let me know if additional log files or debug information might be helpful (I am technical but not very familiar with Kobo specifically)

Turns out parental mode was on (to block the Kobo store) -- when I turn that off, the new menu items appear. It looks like PR #131 might help with that.

If other people find the same thing, I found that kobopatch has an option to remove the store without needing parental mode (look for Remove footer (row3) on new home screen). That allows the selection menu to work.

I had completely forgotten about #131...
