      Hey,

      I am quite serious about the question due to the large number of bookmarks I wanna delete:
      In the bookmark menu I can only select a bookmark after bookmark but either I don't know how to select a certain number of successive bookmarks or no shortcut is coded for this issue.
      If it is the former problem, please tell me how to do that. Thanks you.

        You don't seem to be able to use the normal Windows trick of holding down CTRL and/or Shift to do multiple selection, but CTRL+A still selects them all, and then you can hold CTRL down and deselect any you don't want to delete.
        This might speed things up.
        🙂

          PS You can also hold down the left button and "lasso" the bookmark tiles.
          That's probably even better!
          😃

            He did say "menu" ... from the speed dial you can click on the heart to get the bookmark manager that Dave is talking about - I don't think you can select multiple items in the menu.

              Ah, the OP was talking about wanting to delete large numbers of bookmarks, so I assumed he was trying to do it in the bookmarks manager!

                Your assumption was right. Large number is like 20-30 bookmarks out of 300. I thought that the Opera coders do live in the same world as we do, i.e. Windows-world with its usual shortcuts.
