Completely agree. I keep going up and hitting the reload button.

I missed the start-page button immediately: I use it a lot, as others do. I think Opera One is a combination of hideous and horrible, and I have downgraded and turned off auto update.

I found a little workaround:
Just put the new tab page (chrome://startpageshared) on your bookmarks bar and there you go!
You may also remove the label if you like.

Nice one. But it requires the Bookmarks bar to always be open for a one-click functionality.

Before, the icon was always available besides address bar. Even if Bookmarks bar closed.

Exactly, way too buried, easer to just key in or use the extension given above.

I'm sure this has been discussed, but I can't find a current thread...

My browser just automagically updated, and when the browser restarted, my speed dial button is missing from the address bar. I can't find a simple (SIMPLE) way to access my speed dial page. I can go to Sidebar Setup and scroll down to speed dial to open it, but that's obviously a pain. What gives?

I am also pissed off about the missing SpeedDial. I have to turn on that syper annoyng side bar only for the speed dial, but it is not a solution.

Totally agree - the Speed Dial button has been removed and it's really bad.

Why remove it?

I'm staying on Opera 99 until it is restored.

@greenpalmer-0 I just joined opera yesterday, and thought that speed dial was just the name of the new tab page. Is that not the case? Was there something more?

@greenpalmer-0 Is there a way to go backwards?

The new Opera One(version: 100.0.4815.31) is missing the beloved Speed Dial button on the previous defaulted top left area of the browser. How do I get it back so that it's presence is persistent and not just a one-timer set as a browser app start page?

@teligence - I agree!!!!!! Opera needs to put the button back where it was! It is now located on the side bar, after you activate the side bar and the button. I don't use the side bar so it is very inconvenient!

@cpking Yes you can download old versions from the Opera FTP site. It won't let me post a link, so just google Opera FTP.

@Goldenfire644 Yes, but there was a very useful button at the top left of the toolbar that would take you from whichever page you were on back to the Speed Dial page - pretty much a Home button. In Opera 100 it has been removed.

I really hope that the speed dial icon next to the address bar is restored, it was a small but very convenient feature that I used many times a day. Pleeeease retore this Opera people.

I feel the same way. The short term work around is to right click on any tab. Select "open new tab."

Click on the three dots at the bottom of the sidebar which is Sidebar Settings. You'll find the speed dial option under Opera Tools - just check the box.

well... that just opens a new Speed Dial page. It doesn't replace the currently open page.
