[[aliases]]
=== aliases
Aliases for commands.
The keys of the given dictionary are the aliases, while the values are the commands they map to.

Type: <<types,Dict>>

Default: 

- +pass:[q]+: +pass:[close]+
- +pass:[qa]+: +pass:[quit]+
- +pass:[w]+: +pass:[session-save]+
- +pass:[wq]+: +pass:[quit --save]+
- +pass:[wqa]+: +pass:[quit --save]+

[[auto_save.interval]]
=== auto_save.interval
Time interval (in milliseconds) between auto-saves of config/cookies/etc.

Type: <<types,Int>>

Default: +pass:[15000]+

[[auto_save.session]]
=== auto_save.session
Always restore open sites when qutebrowser is reopened.
Without this option set, `:wq` (`:quit --save`) needs to be used to save open tabs (and restore them), while quitting qutebrowser in any other way will not save/restore the session.
By default, this will save to the session which was last loaded. This behavior can be customized via the `session.default_name` setting.

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[false]+

[[backend]]
=== backend
Backend to use to display websites.
qutebrowser supports two different web rendering engines / backends, QtWebEngine and QtWebKit (not recommended).
QtWebEngine is Qt's official successor to QtWebKit, and both the default/recommended backend. It's based on a stripped-down Chromium and regularly updated with security fixes and new features by the Qt project: https://wiki.qt.io/QtWebEngine
QtWebKit was qutebrowser's original backend when the project was started. However, support for QtWebKit was discontinued by the Qt project with Qt 5.6 in 2016. The development of QtWebKit was picked up in an official fork: https://github.com/qtwebkit/qtwebkit - however, the project seems to have stalled again. The latest release (5.212.0 Alpha 4) from March 2020 is based on a WebKit version from 2016, with many known security vulnerabilities. Additionally, there is no process isolation and sandboxing. Due to all those issues, while support for QtWebKit is still available in qutebrowser for now, using it is strongly discouraged.

This setting requires a restart.

Type: <<types,String>>

Valid values:

 * +webengine+: Use QtWebEngine (based on Chromium - recommended).
 * +webkit+: Use QtWebKit (based on WebKit, similar to Safari - many known security issues!).

Default: +pass:[webengine]+

[[bindings.commands]]
=== bindings.commands
Keybindings mapping keys to commands in different modes.
While it's possible to add bindings with this setting, it's recommended to use `config.bind()` in `config.py` or the `:bind` command, and leave this setting alone.
This setting is a dictionary containing mode names and dictionaries mapping keys to commands:
`{mode: {key: command}}`
If you want to map a key to another key, check the `bindings.key_mappings` setting instead.
For modifiers, you can use either `-` or `+` as delimiters, and these names:

  * Control: `Control`, `Ctrl`

  * Meta:    `Meta`, `Windows`, `Mod4`

  * Alt:     `Alt`, `Mod1`

  * Shift:   `Shift`

For simple keys (no `<>`-signs), a capital letter means the key is pressed with Shift. For special keys (with `<>`-signs), you need to explicitly add `Shift-` to match a key pressed with shift.
If you want a binding to do nothing, bind it to the `nop` command. If you want a default binding to be passed through to the website, bind it to null.
Note that some commands which are only useful for bindings (but not used interactively) are hidden from the command completion. See `:help` for a full list of available commands.
The following modes are available:

* normal: Default mode, where most commands are invoked.

* insert: Entered when an input field is focused on a website, or by
  pressing `i` in normal mode. Passes through almost all keypresses to the
  website, but has some bindings like `<Ctrl-e>` to open an external
  editor. Note that single keys can't be bound in this mode.

* hint: Entered when `f` is pressed to select links with the keyboard. Note
  that single keys can't be bound in this mode.

* passthrough: Similar to insert mode, but passes through all keypresses
  except `<Shift+Escape>` to leave the mode. Note that single keys can't be
  bound in this mode.

* command: Entered when pressing the `:` key in order to enter a command.
  Note that single keys can't be bound in this mode.

* prompt: Entered when there's a prompt to display, like for download
  locations or when invoked from JavaScript.

* yesno: Entered when there's a yes/no prompt displayed.
* caret: Entered when pressing the `v` mode, used to select text using the
  keyboard.

* register: Entered when qutebrowser is waiting for a register name/key for
  commands like `:set-mark`.

Type: <<types,Dict>>

Default: empty

[[bindings.default]]
=== bindings.default
Default keybindings. If you want to add bindings, modify `bindings.commands` instead.
The main purpose of this setting is that you can set it to an empty dictionary if you want to load no default keybindings at all.
If you want to preserve default bindings (and get new bindings when there is an update), use `config.bind()` in `config.py` or the `:bind` command, and leave this setting alone.

This setting can only be set in config.py.

[[bindings.key_mappings]]
=== bindings.key_mappings
Map keys to other keys, so that they are equivalent in all modes.
When the key used as dictionary-key is pressed, the binding for the key used as dictionary-value is invoked instead.
This is useful for global remappings of keys, for example to map <Ctrl-[> to <Escape>.
NOTE: This should only be used if two keys should always be equivalent, i.e. for things like <Enter> (keypad) and <Return> (non-keypad). For normal command bindings, qutebrowser works differently to vim: You always bind keys to commands, usually via `:bind` or `config.bind()`. Instead of using this setting, consider finding the command a key is bound to (e.g. via `:bind gg`) and then binding the same command to the desired key.
Note that when a key is bound (via `bindings.default` or `bindings.commands`), the mapping is ignored.

[[content.blocking.adblock.lists]]
=== content.blocking.adblock.lists
List of URLs to ABP-style adblocking rulesets.

Only used when Brave's ABP-style adblocker is used (see `content.blocking.method`).

You can find an overview of available lists here:
https://adblockplus.org/en/subscriptions - note that the special
`subscribe.adblockplus.org` links aren't handled by qutebrowser, you will instead
need to find the link to the raw `.txt` file (e.g. by extracting it from the
`location` parameter of the subscribe URL and URL-decoding it).


Type: <<types,List of Url>>

Default: 

- +pass:[https://easylist.to/easylist/easylist.txt]+
- +pass:[https://easylist.to/easylist/easyprivacy.txt]+

- An `/etc/hosts`-like file
- One host per line
- A zip-file of any of the above, with either only one file, or a file
  named `hosts` (with any extension).

It's also possible to add a local file or directory via a `file://` URL. In
case of a directory, all files in the directory are read as adblock lists.

The file `~/.config/qutebrowser/blocked-hosts` is always read if it exists.


Type: <<types,List of Url>>

Default: 

- +pass:[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts]+

[[content.blocking.method]]
=== content.blocking.method
Which method of blocking ads should be used.

Support for Adblock Plus (ABP) syntax blocklists using Brave's Rust library requires
the `adblock` Python package to be installed, which is an optional dependency of
qutebrowser. It is required when either `adblock` or `both` are selected.


Type: <<types,String>>

Valid values:

 * +auto+: Use Brave's ABP-style adblocker if available, host blocking otherwise
 * +adblock+: Use Brave's ABP-style adblocker

=== content.blocking.whitelist
A list of patterns that should always be loaded, despite being blocked by the ad-/host-blocker.
Local domains are always exempt from adblocking.
Note this whitelists otherwise blocked requests, not first-party URLs. As an example, if `example.org` loads an ad from `ads.example.org`, the whitelist entry could be `https://ads.example.org/*`. If you want to disable the adblocker on a given page, use the `content.blocking.enabled` setting with a URL pattern instead.

Type: <<types,List of UrlPattern>>

Default: empty

[[content.cache.appcache]]
=== content.cache.appcache
Enable support for the HTML 5 web application cache feature.
An application cache acts like an HTTP cache in some sense. For documents that use the application cache via JavaScript, the loader engine will first ask the application cache for the contents, before hitting the network.

This setting supports link:configuring{outfilesuffix}#patterns[URL patterns].

This setting is only available with the QtWebKit backend.

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[true]+

[[content.cache.maximum_pages]]
=== content.cache.maximum_pages
Maximum number of pages to hold in the global memory page cache.
The page cache allows for a nicer user experience when navigating forth or back to pages in the forward/back history, by pausing and resuming up to _n_ pages.
For more information about the feature, please refer to: https://webkit.org/blog/427/webkit-page-cache-i-the-basics/

This setting is only available with the QtWebKit backend.

Type: <<types,Int>>

Default: +pass:[0]+

This setting is only available with the QtWebEngine backend.

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[true]+

[[content.cookies.accept]]
=== content.cookies.accept
Which cookies to accept.
With QtWebEngine, this setting also controls other features with tracking capabilities similar to those of cookies; including IndexedDB, DOM storage, filesystem API, service workers, and AppCache.
Note that with QtWebKit, only `all` and `never` are supported as per-domain values. Setting `no-3rdparty` or `no-unknown-3rdparty` per-domain on QtWebKit will have the same effect as `all`.
If this setting is used with URL patterns, the pattern gets applied to the origin/first party URL of the page making the request, not the request URL.
With QtWebEngine 5.15.0+, paths will be stripped from URLs, so URL patterns using paths will not match. With QtWebEngine 5.15.2+, subdomains are additionally stripped as well, so you will typically need to set this setting for `example.com` when the cookie is set on `somesubdomain.example.com` for it to work properly.
To debug issues with this setting, start qutebrowser with `--debug --logfilter network --debug-flag log-cookies` which will show all cookies being set.

This setting supports link:configuring{outfilesuffix}#patterns[URL patterns].

Type: <<types,String>>

Valid values:

 * +all+: Accept all cookies.
 * +no-3rdparty+: Accept cookies from the same origin only. This is known to break some sites, such as GMail.
 * +no-unknown-3rdparty+: Accept cookies from the same origin only, unless a cookie is already set for the domain. On QtWebEngine, this is the same as no-3rdparty.
 * +never+: Don't accept cookies at all.

Default: +pass:[all]+

=== content.cookies.store
Store cookies.

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[true]+

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[true]+

[[content.headers.referer]]
=== content.headers.referer
When to send the Referer header.
The Referer header tells websites from which website you were coming from when visiting them. Note that with QtWebEngine, websites can override this preference by setting the `Referrer-Policy:` header, so that any websites visited from them get the full referer.
No restart is needed with QtWebKit.

This setting requires a restart.

Type: <<types,String>>

Valid values:

 * +always+: Always send the Referer.
 * +never+: Never send the Referer. This is not recommended, as some sites may break.
 * +same-domain+: Only send the Referer for the same domain. This will still protect your privacy, but shouldn't break any sites. With QtWebEngine, the referer will still be sent for other domains, but with stripped path information.

Default: +pass:[same-domain]+

[[content.headers.user_agent]]
=== content.headers.user_agent
User agent to send.

The following placeholders are defined:

* `{os_info}`: Something like "X11; Linux x86_64".
* `{webkit_version}`: The underlying WebKit version (set to a fixed value
  with QtWebEngine).
* `{qt_key}`: "Qt" for QtWebKit, "QtWebEngine" for QtWebEngine.
* `{qt_version}`: The underlying Qt version.

The default value is equal to the unchanged user agent of
QtWebKit/QtWebEngine.

Note that the value read from JavaScript is always the global value. With
QtWebEngine between 5.12 and 5.14 (inclusive), changing the value exposed
to JavaScript requires a restart.

[[content.notifications.presenter]]
=== content.notifications.presenter
What notification presenter to use for web notifications.
Note that not all implementations support all features of notifications:
- With PyQt 5.14, any setting other than `qt` does not support  the `click` and
  `close` events, as well as the `tag` option to replace existing notifications.
- The `qt` and `systray` options only support showing one notification at the time
  and ignore the `tag` option to replace existing notifications.
- The `herbe` option only supports showing one notification at the time and doesn't
  show icons.
- The `messages` option doesn't show icons and doesn't support the `click` and
  `close` events.

On QtWebEngine, this setting requires Qt 5.14 or newer.

Type: <<types,String>>

Valid values:

 * +auto+: Tries `libnotify`, `systray` and `messages`, uses the first one available without showing error messages.

 * +libnotify+: Shows messages via DBus in a libnotify-compatible way. If DBus isn't available, falls back to `systray` or `messages`, but shows an error message.
 * +systray+: Use a notification presenter based on a systray icon. Falls back to `libnotify` or `messages` if not systray is available. This is a reimplementation of the `qt` setting value, but with the possibility to switch to it at runtime.

Default: +pass:[true]+

[[tabs.undo_stack_size]]
=== tabs.undo_stack_size
Number of closed tabs (per window) and closed windows to remember for :undo (-1 for no maximum).

Type: <<types,Int>>

Default: +pass:[100]+

[[tabs.width]]
=== tabs.width
Width (in pixels or as percentage of the window) of the tab bar if it's vertical.

Type: <<types,PercOrInt>>

Default: +pass:[15%]+

[[tabs.wrap]]
=== tabs.wrap
Wrap when changing tabs.

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[true]+

[[url.auto_search]]
=== url.auto_search
What search to start when something else than a URL is entered.

Type: <<types,String>>

Valid values:

 * +naive+: Use simple/naive check.
 * +dns+: Use DNS requests (might be slow!).
 * +never+: Never search automatically.
 * +schemeless+: Always search automatically unless URL explicitly contains a scheme.

Default: +pass:[naive]+

[[url.default_page]]
=== url.default_page
Page to open if :open -t/-b/-w is used without URL.
Use `about:blank` for a blank page.

Type: <<types,FuzzyUrl>>

Default: +pass:[https://start.duckduckgo.com/]+

[[url.incdec_segments]]
=== url.incdec_segments
URL segments where `:navigate increment/decrement` will search for a number.

Type: <<types,FlagList>>

Valid values:

 * +host+
 * +port+
 * +path+
 * +query+
 * +anchor+

Default: 

- +pass:[path]+
- +pass:[query]+

[[url.open_base_url]]
=== url.open_base_url
Open base URL of the searchengine if a searchengine shortcut is invoked without parameters.

Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[false]+

[[url.searchengines]]
=== url.searchengines
Search engines which can be used via the address bar.

Maps a search engine name (such as `DEFAULT`, or `ddg`) to a URL with a
`{}` placeholder. The placeholder will be replaced by the search term, use
`{{` and `}}` for literal `{`/`}` braces.

The following further placeholds are defined to configure how special
characters in the search terms are replaced by safe characters (called
'quoting'):

* `{}` and `{semiquoted}` quote everything except slashes; this is the most
  sensible choice for almost all search engines (for the search term
  `slash/and&amp` this placeholder expands to `slash/and%26amp`).
* `{quoted}` quotes all characters (for `slash/and&amp` this placeholder
  expands to `slash%2Fand%26amp`).
* `{unquoted}` quotes nothing (for `slash/and&amp` this placeholder
  expands to `slash/and&amp`).
* `{0}` means the same as `{}`, but can be used multiple times.

The search engine named `DEFAULT` is used when `url.auto_search` is turned
on and something else than a URL was entered to be opened. Other search
engines can be used by prepending the search engine name to the search
term, e.g. `:open google qutebrowser`.


Type: <<types,Dict>>

Default: 

- +pass:[DEFAULT]+: +pass:[https://duckduckgo.com/?q={}]+

[[url.start_pages]]
=== url.start_pages
Page(s) to open at the start.

Type: <<types,List of FuzzyUrl&#44; or FuzzyUrl>>

Default: +pass:[https://start.duckduckgo.com]+

[[url.yank_ignored_parameters]]
=== url.yank_ignored_parameters
URL parameters to strip with `:yank url`.

Type: <<types,List of String>>

Default: 

- +pass:[ref]+
- +pass:[utm_source]+
- +pass:[utm_medium]+
- +pass:[utm_campaign]+
- +pass:[utm_term]+
- +pass:[utm_content]+

[[window.hide_decoration]]
=== window.hide_decoration
Hide the window decoration.

This setting requires a restart on Wayland.


Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[false]+

[[window.title_format]]
=== window.title_format
Format to use for the window title. The same placeholders like for
`tabs.title.format` are defined.


Type: <<types,FormatString>>

Default: +pass:[{perc}{current_title}{title_sep}qutebrowser]+

[[window.transparent]]
=== window.transparent
Set the main window background to transparent.

This allows having a transparent tab- or statusbar (might require a compositor such
as picom). However, it breaks some functionality such as dmenu embedding via its
`-w` option. On some systems, it was additionally reported that main window
transparency negatively affects performance.

Note this setting only affects windows opened after setting it.


Type: <<types,Bool>>

Default: +pass:[false]+

Type: <<types,Int>>

Default: +pass:[512]+

[[zoom.text_only]]
=== zoom.text_only
