Add items to gvfs database?
gvfs-mime --query x-scheme-handler/http and
gvfs-mime --query x-scheme-handler/https
both output
Default application for 'x-scheme-handler/https': firefox.desktop
Registered applications:
firefox.desktop
Recommended applications:
firefox.desktop
when both chromium and firefox are installed. How would I go about Chromium to this list? It's not detecting its installation.

Re: Add items to gvfs database?
Have you modified your chromium.desktop somehow? There should be
MimeType=(..snip.snap..)x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https;Offline

I didn't have this problem until I edited the chromium shortcut in the Cinnamon menu editor.

Re: Add items to gvfs database?
I'm guessing cinnamon menu editor created ~/.local/share/applications/chromium.desktop when you edited the shortcut.
Make sure that the file has the same 'MimeType=..' line as /usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop

I changed the mimetypes in ~/.local/share/applications/chromium.desktop to match /usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop it's still not detecting it.

Re: Add items to gvfs database?
Nevermind, I fixed it by installing the pepperflash plugin from AUR. This installed Chromium as a requirement and put it into a different applications category, creating a new shortcut like the original that gvfs detects as capable of handling internet browsing. As long as I don't touch this shortcut I should be fine
