<![CDATA["Recommended"]]>Hey,

I just installed Opera on a new PC and there's this "Recommended" in the Adressbar now. It's Version: 30.0.1835.157 in
Version: 30.0.1835.125 there isn't such a bar.

Is it possible to get rid of it or is it finally time to move on?

I updated my Opera Developer yesterday to ver.34.0.2011.0 and now there is this ugly "Recommended" thing every time I just click in the adress bar.

How can we get rid of this, please???

Thanks in advance!

Just found the post of l33t4opera (https://forums.opera.com/topic/11929/new-opera-developer-34):

Address bar recommendations:
This feature is now enabled by default. To enable or disable the feature, please go to Settings and in the “User interface” section, modify the “Show extra suggestions” check-box setting.

Not that Opera could use those information to improve their products. That's very egoistic, isn't it?

@vux777, @sgunhouse:
Neither opera://flags/#site-tiles (it is disabled, still by default) nor disabling plugins solved the problem.
But I think I found a solution:

The entries in the 'Recommended' bar (@herrevo's screenshot), really seem to come from Speed Dial. But at least for me they didn't appear on the Speed Dial page (blank new tab). Maybe it was some kind of a bug? How ever I found a work around:

  • I linked Opera on Android with the one running on my pc using synchronization.
  • I opened a new blank tab in Opera on Android, that made Speed Dial (for me it's called 'Schnellwahl') appear.
  • There's a little monitor icon (left arrow, right arrow, monitor icon, tabs, Opera icon) on the pages bottom. Clicking this little icon shows up all devices connected to the Opera account. For me: my phone and my pc
  • From there I was able to see and to remove all the preinstalled crap (such as facebook, ebay, free vpn, etc).

It seems that since then the 'Recommended' bar doesn't appear anymore.

Besides the usage of several different terms for one and the same thing is very misleading.

Schnellwahl

Speed Dial

The bar itself is called Recommended. (screenshot made by @herrevo)
Either less translation or one consistent translation would have made it easier to identify and solve the problem.

Thanks to everyone that tried helping. 🙂

I'd still say it has to be an extension - I see at least 3 in your screenshot.

I asked on twitter some weeks ago, but @opera didn't even understood what the problem is.
Is there any way to get rid of that "Recommended" field? It is really annoying.

I never saw something like that...
can you post a screenshot of that?

actually, I did see it before... just didn't realized you were talking about that
In latest dev that flag is removed (i can't find it)
and I don't believe that flag reached stable build, plus I also have 30.0.1835.125 as latest

But it seems strange to me, that the installer always offers to upgrade my opera installation, as If he would not get that the current installed version is already the highest.

If you want me to do some deep debugging suggest something to start with.

Is the actual text gray and can't be selected? Could be an error in the translation. In English the message in the address bar is "Enter search or web address" - if it is a bad translation then it'll also show in a new tab, but only on the speed dial page.

Could come from your startup settings, or an extension, or something in the shortcut used to start it. But yes, 1835.125 is the latest table version - so we may need to know where you got this .157 build ...
