      If your home page is the speed dial, you have a "home" button technically

        @leocg said in How to add a start page/speed dial button to the toolbar in gx?:

        @meh122 Not possible as far as I know.

        hello. I'm new user of opera gx and I'm wondering is it still not possible on windows version? On macOS this button is where it should be - by refresh button, why not on windows?

            true however.... it's much easier to click on an actual home button rather then clicking on a speed dial button then having to click on the website you have set as your home page.

              true, its a feature that is missing and annoying when a thousand tabs are open at once and i have to close them to get the [+] option to open a new tab which goes to the speed dial tab

                I want a speed dial / home button as well ! I use it a LOT on standard Opera, instead of closing a tab i hit the home button and I'm ready to go on a new website.
                Also I tend to just leave the tab on speed dial screen when i'm not using Opera, because it is not too distracting when working. Having to open a new tab just to access home is infuriating when coming from normal Opera aha

                  I was requesting this right after initial release, and they still havent done it. Now I copletely switched from main opera to GX and I still do miss this home button. So please, put it back... there is seriously no reason to not have it there besides laziness. Leaving this button out doesnt make GX more "gaming"

                    @sgunhouse Mods, do feature suggestions actually matter to the development team? If they do, how would we get a simple button implemented?

                      @arion-za Yes, but it doesn't mean that they will accept and implement all suggestions and requests.

                        I know that this was already asked several times:

                        • How to add a start page/speed dial button to the toolbar in gx?
                        • Why they removed "GO TO SPEED DIAL" Button
                        • [Request]Add Speed Dial button
                        • Opera GX Has No Home Button
                        • Homepage button.

                        But why Opera team has still not responded to this yet?
                        I know that there is a Speed Dial button in the Sidebar, but it's too far away, and it also functions differently. Why not at least give an option, which is disabled by default, so that those who need the button, can enable it?

                                    @redcapshortcut This is something that was asked for many months ago I can vouch. The topics listed have since been deleted by the moderation team for a merging reason I guess but the feedback from those posts are now lost.

                                    The home button is such as simple request but the forums fails to let us know what we have to do to get "x" implemented, like, do we need users requesting such features? since most of the people dont know that a forum even exists let alone they be willing to create an account on here.
