How do I disable cashback?

@hucker Because I was answering the other questions on it.

By the way, I just tested disabling cashback on settings page and didn't get the cashback pop-up when visiting associated sites.

@leocg Really?

For every site which uses cashback, this thing flashes and pops up a menu. For every one I have to disable it for that site within the popup. And that only lasts a week, or to the next Opera update, whichever comes first.

And since it's disabled in settings, why is that button even there?

@hucker Did you disable Cashback in settings page?

Image link isn't working here, so I couldn't see where did you disable it.

Yes

Which image? The one in the original post? Obviously just remove the stray [/IMG] the forum didn't understand. The second image is uploaded to Opera forums and isn't a link.

@hucker With cashback enabled:

With cashback disabled in settings:

You need to open a new tab with the page, if you just reload it you will still see the cashback badge.

@leocg I closed Opera, opened the link in my email to your post, then opened Ebay, then settings to check. Look:

I don't have the cashback extension, this is a new installation of Opera. Never sure what that was for anyway, it seemed to duplicate everything.

@hucker What version of Opera do you have? Here the text says something different, but could be a translation issue.

@hucker I also checked with version 119 and the cashback badge is not appearing if cashback is disabled in settings.

@leocg I fixed it. The switch seems to have some crumbs stuck in it or something. I turned it ON, restarted Opera, cashback still there. I turned it off again, restarted Opera, button gone away.

@leocg P.S. why do all the emoticons in here look weird - is it because of dark mode? (testing) No, they're just odd. There seems to be a few standard ones mixed in, but a huge number of useless ones. They're supposed to show an emotion, like confused, surprised, etc.

And I couldn't edit the last post, I got a red error box bottom right!

Does anything work right with Opera?

@hucker Kinda off-topic, but check if Force Dark Pages is enabled. If so, right click on the page and disable it.

@leocg Yes I have force dark pages on, I want it on so more pages are dark. Why do you want me to turn it off?

[leocg]

leocg Moderator Volunteer @hucker last edited by

@hucker To see if it fixes the emoji issue. You can also try playing with opera://flags/#enable-force-dark

@leocg It may just be Opera uses weird emojis which aren't like I see elsewhere. Can you show me a screenshot of your available emojis please?

@hucker Available where?

@leocg Available when replying in this forum:

Those are not normal emojis I see anywhere else. Are they from this forum? From Opera browser? Are they different to yours looking in the same place because of dark mode?

These are the standard ones much easier to see:

@hucker Usually each page has its own pack of emojis, among the others.

@leocg Are you going to post yours then? I still don't know if it's dark mode or not.
