Folks, no need to repeat it again and again. Please read this thread carefully and you will see that Opera confirmed it is the bug which will be resolved in the next release. End of story.

I moved from Beta to Stable channel just to avoid annoying bugs like this, yet here I am again.

I have a feeling that before, in older versions, when opening a new bar, you could enter the new address or word to search.

I see that in the version I'm using this does not happen. (55.0.2994.56).

If not, please put it.

Hugs the Opera team.

I have the same bug with the cursor not focusing the adress bar automatically.

Why wait for the next stable update, when you can roll out the fix before aggravating even more users and THEN work on "important" updates.

Because there are other ways to open a new tab, so there's no need to rush the release just to fix that problem.

I understand why it isn't considered an urgent priority, however, I also want to register the fact that because I am so used to this behaviour, I keep typing my searches into the void and it is driving me up the wall.

Glad I found this thread.
I was starting to think I'd been gaslighting myself here.

The auto-select of the address bar is so ingrown a functionality for me that its absense causes me slight confusion and annoyance about thirty times a day.
