Sites in incognito mode does not have favicon on the tab.
This does not make sense, because the design of the browser is different in incognito mode.

But an even bigger problem is that if you bookmark a new site (which you din’t visit in non-incognito mode before), bookmarks will not have a favorite icon.

All other browsers have no such problem.

I really don't like it.

Favicons should appears in the tabs in incognito mode. And favicons should be correctly saved with bookmarks entries (when you bookmark the page in incognito mode).

I couldn't reproduce this.

E-m, it's easy.

1. Open japanese or chinese site in private tab (I don't think that you visited it before. So you should not have favicon in cache.)
   
   You can use Yandex search, it displays favicons for sites (Google does not).

2. Add site to favorites.
   

3. See.
   

It's a bug.

That terrible purple color is not enough to understand, that the browser in incognito mode? All of browsers show favicon in incognito mode, because it's helpful functional for users. But Opera have other way. Wrong.

OK.

But at least, the bug should be fixed.

@anonan Ah, yes. You have to go to "Menu -> Bookmarks -> Other Bookmarks" and hover over the bookmark for the favicon to load and show. Indeed sounds like a bug to me.

Test in Opera Developer though to see if that part is fixed. Seems like it is.

It is still not fixed.

Making a bookmark in incognito mode creates the bookmark without the favicon.
(when you have no favicon for this site in the cache)

It was fixed partially, it was not fixed correctly.

• When you bookmark a site (in a private tab), whose favicon you have in the browser cache:
  The new bookmark would have the most old favicon (favicon of the first bookmark entry for this site (domain)).
  It should take favicon from the last created entry for this domain, not the first one.
  Examples:
  
  
  The left bookmarks were created in incognito tabs, and they have the most old favicon that was available in the browser cache.
  (And this is cool that the browser stores the old favicon, just use the most recent for new created bookmarks)

• When you bookmark the site, whose favicon you have not in the cache:
  The bookmarks has no favicon at all.
  The example:
