        @localmeatblob This works but just disable the wallpaper option, close Opera, and reopen, reenable the wallpaper option and you can select wallpapers now 🙂

          I could use some help here. I've tried several of the suggested fixes for my issue, but mine seems to be different. I find that with my mods, Opera GX refuses to change to the modded wallpaper automatically. This is the case with only one mod active, and I have to manually change the wallpaper every time. Anyone got a fix?

            @antoinequint9 I have the same problem, my wallpapers are activated, yet it just comes up with a normal search bar. Please fix this problem, moderators.

                  @itioseprimitiv Goto the URL opera://settings/opera-gx and keep clicking the wallpaper preview slider to the left till you get to the first one, which should be the mod's wallpaper. Then, click it to set it.

                    @leocg wallpaper mod isn't working only gives me the ones in settings. I have wallpapers enabled and I want the modded one (its made by opera) to turn on instead of the selected wavy ones. Any way to solve this?

                      Nvm guys @burnout426 solution works! Use this to fix it. PS click left on 'AI wallpapers'

                                    I'm unable to find new wallpapers from the "get more wallpapers" section of opera. Every time I head there and go to the animated wallpapers section and try to go to the next page it redirects me to a page with the text "The page you're looking for could not be found". Any ideas as to what's going on with it?

                                            @dzoni101 Know issue for regular Opera (Opera One). You need version 112 for the fixed, but 112 is still in beta and hasn't reached stable yet.
