Steps to reproduce:

  1. Navigate to "maps.google.com", or variants like "maps.google.com.xx"
  2. Open a new tab and type "maps" in the address bar

Expected behavior:
Orion should remember the URLs and suggest them, but there's zero related entry shown in the "Bookmarks & History" section.

Orion, OS version; hardware type:
Version 0.99.110-beta (WebKit 613.1.12)
macOS 12.1

    I can't reproduce this on the same version. The only thing I noticed was that it has a bit of lag when loading it as a top-hit, but that's not really an issue. Here's a screenshot:

      Cero While this is true, I believe this result is from the search engine, and not history. Upon disabling the history autocomplete, I still get the hit for maps.google.com. However, if I disable the search engine autocomplete and enable the history autocomplete, it does not give me the maps.google.com result.

          a year later

          any updates on this?

          I have the same issue. I think it's bug where Orion doesn't save in the history the URL that I put in but rather the redirected URL.

          Try this

          go to maps.google.com
          check your Orion history and you'll find

          google is redirecting the subdomain maps.google.com to google.com/maps and orion is not adding it to the history as a domain so natually it doesn't remeber it

            TheUser1 It appears that Orion's behavious is the one you would expect (saving the loaded site in history, because that is how history is supposed to work?).

            Can you provide more details about maps.google.com behavior? Does that site have 302 redirect or something like that? Would you expect to see both maps.google.com and google.com/maps in history if it is a redirect? How do other browsers handle this in history?

                Vlad
                yes it's a 302 redirect

                Interestingly, when I enter maps.google.com in safari and check the history only google.com/maps appears

                but at the same time safari is able to provide autocompletion for maps.google.com

                I don't know what to make of that to be honest

                Ok! this is bizzare, I was in the proccess of recording a video to show you have that orion doesn't remeber that url and doesn't suggest it to me even thought I just opened 5 seconds prior. But it seems to actually work. so no complaints from my side anymore 😃

                    maybe the lastest Orion release "fixed" it, or me upgrading to macOS 14 beta fixed it

                      TheUser1 They are probably 'hard coding' maps.google.com, meaning having special code just for that because it is a popular site.

                          No one is typing
