I'm running Developer 36.0.2129.0 on Windows XP, which I realise is the last version that I will be able to use on that operating system.
;_;
However, I now notice that the current release version is 36.0.2130.3, which is later.
My Developer version still says it's up to date though, is that because I'm on the Developer channel, as I have been ever since Opera changed from Presto?
If so, should I leave it like that, on the understanding that I will still get security fixes automatically?

Yep, 36.0.2129.3 is a beta build, so a developer build will not update to it.

Most probably only the stable version will get them, but it's just a guess.

Thanks. I could now just download and install the stable version of course as I can't use any developer versions on XP any more, but I don't want to lose my customisations, like enabling the power user settings.
The current beta is 36.0.2130.29, so I guess I could try installing that.

Hello. Switched to Opera Developer yesterday. Currently using version 37.0.2171.0

When I load usatoday.com, the "headline" text that should appear on the photos does not show up. If I run the speed test on the site, the text shows up (along with the ads) for the non-adblocked version of the website. If I then turn off the ad-blocking using the shield icon, the headline text STILL does not show up when I reload the site.

This is the only site I've observed this behavior on so far. Is this a known problem already?

Other than this issue, I love it so far by the way!

You can copy the content of the profile folder into the one for the stable version.

Of course, good thinking!

Is there a portable version of Opera developer? I like the integrated ads block, but want to use from a USB stick.

When installing you can choose a standalone/usb installation.

2 Problems with Opera developer 37.0.2171.0 on windows 10 32bit

1. Print preview doesn't work, printer dialog is looping endless on preview.
2. Web.whatsapp.com only shows error message : ...works only with google chrome 36+

At least the printer problem didn't show up in previous version 2163.

FYI: 37.0.2171.0

We use Google Drive/Docs for business and there is a persistent "hang" when using Google Sheets and Docs. Usually starts with an error message then finally an ongoing "trying to reconnect" message. Tough to use this on a daily basis. Love the speed for just about every other app (with the exception of printing...I have that problem as well). Looking forward to updates.

Works fine here.
