      When I highlight a field now in the address bar, the entire address is displayed. Great!

      The classic tabs works perfectly, GFREX, thank you so much!

        It's not that either. Cut also works, from the menu or with Ctrl X. Try to diagnose the real cause before reporting any bugs. It's probably by design if there's a way to cut or copy part of the URL.

        Thanks. I'll disable some extensions and try to figure out whats causing it.

        EDIT: Disabled all extensions and looked through opera:flags disabling anything it could be yet it still does not work with cutting. Both on Opera 19 and 18 and both by right clicking and cutting or just Ctrl X. Copy works just fine for me, though. Oh well.

          Dang, I cannot edit my post.

          (7) Make new tab from a link open at end of tabs OR beside current tab.

            I'm sorry Opera team, but fix this shit. Pardon my french.

            I can't find anything. Where the heck is Opera Link? I was completely happy Synching all my bookmarks with my Android device and Opera Classic, now you've turned the PC version into the awful Opera browser beta. Performance has improved but everything else has been messed up. Why would I install extensions and who the hell what else just to see my bookmarks? I just want to check them at a glance, well organised like it used to be, period.

            I just can't bear this, I think im going to Chrome, Firefox, or even Dolphin.

              (4) To get a Booksmark button on your Search toolbar: (where you can have ALL your bookmarks organized as you wish in folders and sub-folders)

              Go to extensions and get extension:

              Download Chrome Extension (https://addons.opera.com/en-gb/extensions/details/download-chrome-extension-9/?display=en)
              (this enables many other extensions to work on Opera such as the Home button and the bookmarks button, etc.)

              Then download:

              Bookmarks Manager (https://addons.opera.com/en-gb/extensions/details/bookmarks-manager/?display=en)

              This puts a button on your Toolbar for all your bookmarks (separate from QAB)

              OK, I did those things, but I still don't see any bookmark button or my bookmarks. My bookmarks - about 4,000 of them - seem to have been imported somewhere but I don't know where...maybe the speed dial...

              I just want to have my bookmark panel on the left like Firefox has it and like Opera always used to have it, but which Chrome doesn't, which is basically the only thing I don't like about Chrome. Is Opera morphing into a bad copy of Chrome?

                Did you restart Opera every time it asked you to? You should see a button on the right of your address bar where all your bookmarks should be.

                It worked perfectly for me and my hundreds of bookmarks are now all there.

                  Oh, I see there's a button on the right, and it opens up some sort of truncated "bookmark - manage and import" thing that apparently shows a few (?) of my 4,000 bookmarks, but unless I'm doing something all wrong this is no good at all for me. I just want my bookmarks to stay open on a left panel like they used to, plus Opera used to have an additional nice feature where you clicked the left edge of the screen and the bookmark panel opened and closed. Something like this is, I think, like Chrome, only worse, at least for me. I want my many bookmarks to be easily accessible without going through multiple steps.

                      Ah!!! Okay. I just wanted my bookmarks imported period. I never use the panel. Thanks for the clarification

                        Interesting but I cannot figure out how to import my bookmarks to this extension? I must be missing something

                            Hi Brenda (bjdobson), maybemy" target="_blank">http://my.opera.com/community/forums/findpost.pl?id=14990772]my tips will be helpful.

                            Nope, sorry, not helpful. I don't WANT all my bookmarks in that toolbar. I DO have the "Bookmarks Manager" extension where all my bookmarks are neat and tidy but I cannot figure out how to bookmark a page using that.

                            When I tried to use the Chrookmarks - Chrome Bookmarks, it only imported my bookmarks from the quick task bar, which are just a few of my common bookmarks.

                            I only have my FULL list of bookmarks in the "bookmarks manager" extension and, of course, in my other Opera.

                            I'd like to import ALL my bookmarks into this Chrookmarks - Chrome Bookmarks extension but NOT have them all on my quick access bar as that's way too many. I just leave my common ones there.

                            I hope that's not too confusing?

                                    Okay. Well, for me, THAT extension gave me all of my bookmarks and folders in one spot.

                                    Otherwise, ALL my bookmarks were on the QAB, where I definitely did not want them.

                                    So if you can explain to me how to import all my bookmarks THEN get them into this extension you're promoting, THEN remove all the ones I want to remove from the QAB, that'd be awesome. 🙂

                                      Firstly, I don't recommend, nor advertise any extension - the choice is yours, and by the way, I'm Opera's user, just like you 🙂

                                      Originally posted by bjdobson:

                                      If for some reason you do not want, or can not use the "Xmarks Bookmark Sync" extension to sync your bookmarks, and your bookmarks in the "Bookmarks Manager" are already better organised, than in the old Opera, so in this case, I have another idea for you:
                                      1. Export your bookmarks from the "Bookmarks Manager" to html file, and then import them to the Chrome, or Chromium,
                                      2. Close the Opera and Chrome/Chromium, and then copy the files: "Bookmarks", "Favicons", and "Favicons-journal", from the Chrome's profile folder (e.g. "...Chrome\User Data\Default"), to the Opera's profile directory (e.g. "...Opera Developer\profile\data"),
                                      3. Launch the Opera, and then open the "Chrookmarks" menu, and move (drag and drop) all of your bookmarks and/or folders (which you don't want to have in the "Bookmarks Bar"), to the "Other Bookmarks" subfolder, as it's shown below:

                                            The bookmarks don't come. Just the ones already in my QAB, even though they're all there in Chrome. In Opera, they're not there - except in my OTHER bookmarks extension but not in the chrome crook one
