<![CDATA[Opera 51 does not remember last bookmark folder]]>Previous versions did remember the last selected bookmark folder in the left menu.
In my case it was the other bookmarks folder. After restart now, the bookmark bar is always selected

The current implementation is redundant and super annoying:

  • If I use the bookmarks bar, then I already have it displayed on top of my browser window. So when I go to Bookmarks view, I probably want to display a different bookmarks folder.
  • If I don't use the bookmarks bar, then when I go to Bookmarks view, I probably want to display a different bookmarks folder.

Either way I probably DON'T want to go to the bookmarks bar folder.

I'm not going to use the bookmarks bar and still everytime I want to look for a bookmark in my huge list i get sent there first. Why can i not just define in the settings where clicking on bookmarks sends me? On Microsoft Edge for example you can set what happens when opening a new tab.

Shouldn't have to do that but still, thanks again.

Thank you for your suggestion. I have tried it but that causes another annoyance as the other bookmarks tab is always open and means my speed dial is no longer dominant.

Still would be great if someone at opera could give us all the choice about how we use and view bookmarks. I am no expert but surely it must be acheiveable?

Open bookmarks in new tab, right click on it and choose pin tab. It will remember last visited bookmark folder. And it works with heart in sidebar. And yes, i know it opens bookmarks as default, when starting opera, but i don't mind . For me this is lesser of two evils... 🙃

And it's not a necessity to work with bookmarks bar in bookmark manager when you can do it directly at the top "bookmarks bar" panel.

And also that those who use the bookmarks bar may want to go directly to their bookmarks when opening the bookmarks manager?

I'm getting sick and tired of the devs making stupid changes like that when there has been no complaints or reason to change somethig that isn't broken. Opera just continues to suck with each and every new update.

I am having the same problem. It is a first world problem, I know. I would love to be able to click on the bookmarks heart on my sidebar and automatically get the other bookmarks to show. One extra click but so annoying....

Forgot to say as I got this link through a goggle search that I am using Opera on Linux Lite 3.6

Vivaldi is not even capable of right click on bookmarks in bookmark folder on the bookmark bar.
which is 10x more annoying than this.

Way to go.... Vivaldi...

Looks like the devs are hell bent on losing as many loyal customers as they can. It seems that with each and every update whether it's PC or Android, they manage to ruin as much as they can with what once was a great browser. 😡 Once Vivaldi establishes their android browser and sync features, it's goodbye Opera for good with me.
