Scroll to the top of the page

I can confirm the problem in Opera Stable (last 65 build) at least.

• In a new tab, while not logged into these forums, paste n go https://forums.opera.com/topic/37486/scroll-to-the-top-of-the-page.

• Scroll down the page and then left-click the tab to scroll to the top. Left-click the tab again to scroll where you were at.

As you'll see, the scroll-to-top feature works fine.

• Click "Login" at the top right, log in, and wait to be redirected back to the page.

• Try scrolling down the page and left-clicking the tab again.

Result: Opera does not scroll back to the top.

I assume that Opera's scroll-to-top feature is implemented by an internal component extension that is getting denied permission to run on the page when redirected from auth.opera.com to forums.opera.com. That's just a guess though.

With that assumption, I closed Opera and started Opera with the --disable-site-isolation-trials command-line switch.

"C:\Program Files\Opera\launcher.exe" --disable-site-isolation-trials

Then, the problem goes away.

With that said, maybe there's some Cross-origin policy headers auth.opera.com and forums.opera.com can use to work around it. But, not sure. If not, it might have to be something Opera would need to fix if possible.

@burnout426 Thanks for replying. About the command, i'm not sure how to use it. Where do i put the "--disable-site-isolation-trials" command exactly!
The problem does appear after login. What i can't understand is how nobody else seems to have this problem. And of course it's not normal to use extra commands every time, in order to make it work. Don't you think?
Just a little help with the command to check it out, though i believe it's a real problem they should fix.

@stolis Maybe forums.opera.com and auth.opera.com are being considered different domains and this may be causing the issue, don't know.

@stolis Go to Opera's installation directory, right click on launcher.exe and then on Create shortcut
Right click then in the new shortcut and on Properties. In the Target field, you add the command to the right of the path to the executable file.

@leocg Thanks for the tip. It seems to work this way, but i don't think this is the right solution.
And my question steel remains. As you have said, you don't face this kind of problem. Is there some other way you use to login? Cause it doesn't make sense that appears only to me. Don't you think?

@leocg What do you mean? I'm doing exactly the same. Why it stops working after login in ???

@stolis I mean that I only login once for all and never logout. I only login again if I have to reinstall Opera or if the Forum kicks me out for some reason.

So when I come here in the forum, I'm not redirected from some where else.

@leocg You must be joking. That's your proposal solving a confirmed problem in operas official pages, instead of trying to fix it ? Then what's the meaning of login-out options?
No offence!

@stolis I was answering your question, I wasn't proposing any solution. Although it could be at least a workaround.
