      I completely second @celadyn 's request. We must have the flexibility to arrange the extension buttons as we want if we were to harness the full capabilities of extensions. Please implement these in 32nd version of Opera.

        Can't agree more with @celadyn !
        At least a way to see and use hidden extensions,
        if not it completely negates their purpose.

          Request:

          • Extension Icon order changable

          Make Extension Icons dragable to change the Extension order. Currently this only works for the icons hidden behind the "More Extensions" button. See screen capture below.

            Hello,

            I would like to retake this suggestion because this would be great to have on a stable version.
            These threads have been opened across the time but nobody take into account

            http://forums.opera.com/topic/77/how-to-reorder-extension-buttons
            http://forums.opera.com/topic/8058/how-to-move-icons-places-extensions

            I do not want to hurt feelings but other browsers already do it (this is not spam or ad, this is the example)
            https://vivaldi.com/blog/snapshots/shuffling-of-extensions-vivaldi-browser-snapshot-1-9-804-3/

            Please Opera team turn your head to look at this, we are the community and we have a lot ideas to make bigger and cool this great browser.

            Regards!

              It would be nice if one could add an extra toolbar for the extension buttons.

                I just switched to Opera after having too many issues with Chrome's scaling, and I want to voice my agreement with celadyn's request. I'm sorry to see that this request was made nearly two years ago and still hasn't been addressed. I'm fairly confident that one of the reasons that people looking for an alternative to Chrome aren't switching to Opera more often is due to this lack of customizability.

                  It seems that Opera team does not care about the users' experience. Two years elapsed, and the problem still stands here!

                    They have added the ability to reorder extensions in recent builds, so you're a bit off there.

                      There's a major bug too which causes opera to crash when you left-click addons in that French quotes menu >> for extra extensions in Opera...

                      Being able to resize the address bar is required!!!

                      Being able to reorder extensions is required!!!

                        Yes I totally agree with this —I require this functionality as it facilitates organizing extension so I can access my most used extension icons, without clutter & having haphazard ordering. Please add this feature which is highly sought-after in browsers like Firefox, which has a seperate menu features for dragging & dropping extension icons in toolbar. This is a must-have feature IMO. Please add this in a new update as I'am a die-hard Opera fan & grown to use it so far as to say that it is the only browser I cannot live without —with features like built-in Adblock + VPN + Opera Turbo (compression) —this new tip (re-ordering extensions) would be indispensable !!! 🙂

                          Reordering extensions icons is already implemented.

                              Thank you very much ! I love it, got the Extension Bar icons just the way I wanted it. Great addition, puts it on par with Firefox !

                                It would be great if it were possible to add a new toolbar. That way, extensions could be on a different toolbar with lots of room for them.

                                  Get https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/simpleextmanager/
                                  Then you can hide whatever ext u want from the bar - but still get them all in a dropdown menu 🙂

                                    Yeah I have it ! 🙂 I unticked "Show uninstall icon" & "Show 'disable all' button" Just so I don't accidentally do something harmful.
