Not necessary. You can click with the middle mouse button/scroll wheel on the bookmark, or hold down Ctrl and left click on the bookmark, and it will open in a new tab.

Bug Report for Block Ads: it throws out the baby with the bath water: The middle (main) part of these two web pages should show Stock Index charts, but with Block Ads on, this somehow prevents these from showing:

For bug reports you can use the "Opera for computers' part of the forum.

Anyway, how do those pages behave if you use another ad-blocker like uBlock?

Forum Bug Report: Numbering gets rearranged to all "1.", see above! I actually put in "1.", "2.", "3.", and "4." for each point, but Opera Forum changed all of these back to "1."

For forum issues you use the Forum Feedback part of the forum.

You can do it by adding a command line to Opera's shortcut.

If you want a dark browser use Vivaldi, love its color themes.

The geolocation Opera uses, whether obtained from the Windows API or from the IP address is not correct. It's 1,200 kilometres off. There's no way to manually override this incorrect IP address. This makes using websites that rely on this geolocation through Javascript a hassle. Some websites cannot be used at all because they, as well as Opera, also have no means to manually override an incorrect location. Geolocation from IP is very inaccurate. Geolocation from IP with no means to manually override is surprising. That's why I started this thread.

I checked the backyard, thanks 😉

Well, given the global diversity, there might be more categories.

I'd say personal name and family name would be "default".
But still. Even with considering additional items like the middle name, father's name and mother's name, I don't know if it used to be spread, I know of the existance of "single names" - like "Miramar", some "Robert" or "Jones", I don't know, it's rare but exists.
Well, not to forget a possible field for an alias. Can they be more than one?

Names are so non-standardised 🙂

Please add customization for Rocker gestures. Would like to have navigating through tabs in recently used order as with old Opera.

Thanks!
Please give back the javascript icon

Bravo! A very deep and intellectually stimulating exercise, probly wasted on the bipolar knuckle-headed "moderator" here but a gallant attempt to enlighten said individual nonetheless. Well done, sir.

There is a trial version in Developer, but it would have to be enabled in opera://flags first.

Why not? If such custom blocklist allows you to use Opera better, then it would be good thing.

I personally use both internal and external adblockers. To conserve resources, I have uncheckd 'Easylist' (this is used by Opera too) in AdBlock preferences; this way I can benefit both from speed of internal adblocker and flexibility of external one.

It would be great if the developers actually cared enough checked these forums and comment on user feedback.

Well, this is an users'forum. Maybe in the Desktop Team blog you have better luck receiving feedback from someone from Opera.

Why is it that there is no place to report bugs

There is one. But the subject of this topic is not a bug.

or send feedback directly to the development team?

They get feedback from here and from the comments on the blog. And also from social networks.

Hi @kuba5555, I'm aware, that this is not exactly the same, like hiding it in the menu, but you can hide extension button as follows: right-click on the button, that you want to hide, select "Manage extension...", and untick the checkbox on the left of "Hide from toolbar" (or "Hide from address field" - depending on the extension type) :cheers:

I'm definitely going to have to add my support to this suggestion. It is extremely inconvenient to be unable to open a highlighted URL in a new tab via the context menu.
