          Clicking on an item in the drop down results list, after performing a search, indeed nothing happens.

          [Off-topic]
          In this respect I was searching for information on what 'VK' meant in the sidebar settings.
          Vainly searched in 'Help' - probably overlooking something. After a number of searches (Google) I assume VK relates to Virtual Keyboard.

          Using Opera v60.0.x

            @mopw69 That's VK.com messenger (a social network that's popular in Russia, for example).

              Ah, right! Thank you so much.
              I got a bit confused after a Google search showing me hits like:

              VK Saver extension - Opera add-ons
              Saving from vk-com. Download music and video from vk-com quickly and easily. and download video ...

              and

              Messengers in the sidebar | Opera
              Full web versions of Facebook Messenger, VKontakte and WhatsApp are now nested in your sidebar...

              hence my forum search.

              Anyway, thanks again!

                Just a note - I tried Chrome and Edge: same problem.

                  After a search and within the search results I click on either of the posts displayed in the search result panel. I would expect the forum software to direct me to the post itself.
                  However, nothing happens.

                  For example:
                  I search for : Sync now
                  click on the first hit, nothing happens, I remain on the same page.
                  Any suggestions?

                      Hi 🙂

                      I tried now, but cannot reproduce the issue anymore.

                      For me it looks like a recent NodeBB upgrade fixed the problem - I can click on the pop-up and it takes me to appropriate post. Works the same in Opera, Chrome and Firefox.

                      What browser/OS combination are you using? Can you try a different browser or an incognito mode?

                      Thanks!

                        Thanks for getting back on this.
                        I am using the latest Opera version (62.0.3331.43) and Windows 10 x64.

                        Made a short video of the issue

                        https://1drv.ms/v/s!AkRaefqU_yzsiJohpvlQTj3DkiEgLg?e=8DKymH

                        Yesterday I also tried using Google Search to search the forum, like:
                        Google Search [site:forums.opera.com sync now]
                        (Note: I tried a few other thread titles as well..)

                        When I clicked on a search result, I ended up on the main forum list only, i.e. the thread/post was not displayed. Weird, but true, at least with me.
                        However, it seems that it is solved now: doing the same Google search and clicking on the title in the results brings me to right thread.

                          please ignore the above post, regretfully I can't delete it myself.

                          search works fine now.
                          sorry for the confusion.

                            Hi Amatczak, I started this thread back in April, the problem still exists!
                            I had a crash on my system and am currently using MS EDGE as my browser Ver 18.18362 (44.18362.1.0)
                            Opera Snip.jpg

                            As you can see from the pic the fields drop down ok but clicking on the "contents" does nothing, I suspect the code for that has been left out but I am not a programmer!

                            Good luck, keep us informed!
                            Sharky

                              Yes, indeed, I think the issue still exists.

                              Note: Initially I thought the issue was solved - reason why I wrote a comment to 'ignore my previous post'. However, after checking again just now, indeed, as said, the problem still exists.

                                @mopw69 I am a little bit confused.

                                On this video it can be seen that you are first here: https://forums.opera.com/topic/31654/opera-forums-search-box-drop-down-list/14 (as I can see the fragment of that post). After typing "sync now" and clicking that search result you are taken to https://forums.opera.com/topic/30969/syncing-is-now-manual/1 (you can see the displayed topic changed). So... isn't that expected behaviour? Where's the issue?

                                    Is anyone looking at this issue? I reported it back in April 2019 and as far as I can see the problem still exists!

                                            @sharkyca So i guess I can assume that you already know the answer for your question.
