      Whenever I try to import bookmarks from Chrome, they do not import right away. Instead, I have to add each bookmark manually from Chrome to Opera. Is there a way for them to show up quicker without having to add them again? Why don't they show up right away? Do I have to wait a day for them to be added?

          Opera Beta. The way of importing that I use is Import bookmarks and settings.

            Opera Beta.

            And what version of Opera Beta?

            they do not import right away

            What happens when you try to import them?

            By the way, did you look at 'imported bookmarks'?

              Nothing happens. And I tried looking at imported bookmarks but they still aren't there.

                  Now Bookmarks Bar and Imported Bookmarks isn't showing up anymore. Only My Folders now is.

                    Can you post a screenshot of this? It is not normal behavior.

                      I can't post a screenshot because it's hard for me to do so from the browser. But I do know that it's Show all bookmarks, Show bookmarks bar, and My Folders.

                        Press 'print screen'key, paste the image into 'Paint' or other image editor program, cut the part of the image that you want to show, upload it to a image host, paste the link to it here.

                        It's not so hard. 🙂

                        BTW, you do not see the bookmarks bar or the bookmarks bar folder in the bookmarks manager?

                          I'm trying to take a screenshot of the Bookmarks menu, but it's an arrow hovering over it, so that is why I cannot do it. No I do not.

                            And how does it prevent you from taking the screenshot?

                            No I do not.

                            Did you understand the question?

                              1. There is a "PrtSc" button.
                              2. I've stumbled upon an extension that allows you to make videos of your browsing even. Not sure if it is or there is for Opera though.
                              3. One can always shoot their monitor with a gun a camera, for example on their phone, then take it from there. :sherlock:

                                Because when I tried to take the screenshot at the right moment, the snipping tool wouldn't take the shot of the bookmarks. And I did understand the question.

                                  Snipping tool? Just press the 'print screen' key on your keyboard like was said. There is no need to use any tool.

                                  And I did understand the question.

                                  So which one of the options is your answer?

                                      Thanks. And it happens even with the 'show bookmarks bar' option enabled?

                                      BTW, you don't need to quote everything when replying, you can select only the part that you are referring to.
