      I still do the same mistake by publishing updates for my extension on Opera. I'm waiting since Oct. 2018 for a new review.

        @haterapps Do you try opting in to automatic reviewing?

        Also, Opera can install extensions from chrome.google.com/webstore. Just make sure your version there has any workarounds for Opera (if needed), so that it works fine in Opera.

          Are you sure of that? The last time I checked (which was years ago), Opera did not support installs from the Chrome Web Store. Vivaldi does. Edge does. Brave does. So now, Opera does? When did that change?

            Yes.

            Don't remember, but it seems like a long time ago to me.

              @burnout426 Yes, I did enable the automatic review a month ago, but still nothing.

              I have my extension up to date in other stores (Chrome, Firefox and Microsoft). It's only here where it's 1.5 years outdated.

                  I'm celebrating my birthday, 3 three years and still waiting! I posted my extension on April 13, 2017 and still nothing.

                    We submitted a new version of our extension in February, two months ago. Such a long review process hurts us and our clients. Is there any way to make it faster?

                      On May 29, 2020 it is going to be a year since I submitted Ant Video downloader extension for moderation.

                      Since then I pushed 5 new versions already, all hanging in 'Awaiting moderation' state:

                      • Version 4.7 – Apr 21, 2020 11:12:22 AM
                      • Version 4.6 – Mar 12, 2020 9:21:46 AM
                      • Version 4.5 – Feb 11, 2020 3:10:43 PM
                      • Version 4.4 – Dec 10, 2019 5:02:56 PM
                      • Version 4.3 – May 29, 2019 11:52:08 AM

                      Sent a message at the Conversations tab — no response.

                      The same version for Mozilla Firefox is being published on AMO for I don't know how many years:
                      https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloader-player/

                      Publishing process there is automated and takes only several minutes. But even back in the old dark days when they were manually checking add-ons it still took days, not even weeks.

                      Here at Opera it seems to be a lottery: some add-ons are getting updated regularly, others are waiting in line for weeks / months / years.

                        Hello!
                        On Apr 3, 2020 we submitted new version of extension (id: 244169), but no any feedback so far from moderator.

                        We have been trying to publish our extension since December 2019, but we cannot because of the terrible moderation. Only part of our versions has been checked. In checked versions I see only automatic verification. No major complaints about the code. Why automatic verification takes so match time?

                        Our application has been available in chrome and mozilla stores for a long time. I can say that guys from Mozilla really checks the code and do it fast enough (3-5 days).

                              I uploaded extension on March and still waiting for manual review by moderation. I'm disapointed.

                                Hello, I've submitted my extension to the opera.store. The automatics verification was passed within 1h period and now my extension is fit to Opera.Dev and Opera.Next
                                But I've been waiting for couple of months for the extension to be available on the Opera.Stable. Nothing happens.
                                All i have is Moderator's note:
                                @ Your extension needs to be manually reviewed and moderated before it can be added to Opera Stable. @

                                the extension ID is:
                                iblipoflhcnginbkkndncicgegjpfbok

                                What i'm doing wrong? Please, help.

                                        Hello mods, submitted extensions few days ago, passed auto-check for Opera Dev, now waiting for manual moderation. Previously successfully passed moderation for Google/Firefox if it matter.

                                          Its been like a week and there is no reply or any message from the Moderator.
                                          I am wondering if you guys even have a moderator.

                                            Our extension has been awating moderation since Jul 21, 2020: "Hide My IP v1.0.36 was submitted. Awaiting moderation." and the extension ID is: okkpfaeofjkckljjlpnkclopjlgkdikf

                                            There has not been any update or response from the Opera moderators since then.

                                            It is sad to see this from Opera, as our extension when submitted or updated with Mozilla was approved within about an hour.
