How to move bookmarks to folders

After Opera entered into its relationship with Google, I switched to Firefox and am largely satisfied with it. However I do recall fondly the old versions of Opera that I used - from v.5 to v.12.17, and particularly how bookmarks were handled so elegantly. I have recently decided to try Opera again and am using v.31, sans the Google search bar, of course. I used Opera to open certain web sites, and bookmarked them. They ended up in Unsorted Bookmarks. I have created in "My Folders" a new folder into which I would like to move some of the Unsorted Bookmarks. Drag and drop does not seem to work. Opera Help is unhelpful. Any assistance appreciated for this particular problem - and where I might find some general and detailed instructions on handling Opera 31 bookmarks.

You can open the page, click on the heart button and select the folder you want it to be.

Drag and drop is generally how one does it but there are other ways. Are you using the bookmarks manager? Are you using Windows 10? There are a few quirks that still need to be ironed out for Opera on Windows 10.

Does selecting and CtrlXCtrlV-ing work there?

Bookmarks Manager???

OMenu > Bookmarks (the one under Discover). Or click on the bookmarks button in navigation bar.

Do CtrlB and/or Ctrl^ShiftB work?
There are shortcuts, aren't they?
