        Any way to change background color? Don't really like the grey one 🙂

          According to this post https://forums.opera.com/topic/42456/opera-stable-70-news they removed the #sidebar-extensions-in-browser-sidebar flag in the latest update. So as far as I understand it's now impossible for this extension to work properly on the latest build of Opera.

          If anyone has a solution please share it with us.

            After removing the flag opera://flags/#sidebar-extensions-in-browser-sidebar in Opera 70, Bookmarks By the Side does not work any more. That's sad, because the native Opera's sidebar is unusable -- it's too wide and occupies too much space on the screen.

              Why would you need a flag? If it is in Settings then there is no flag.

                That's really sad!! Totally agree that native Opera's sidebar is unusable.
                Really no workaround? Half a year ago there was a similar situation and this here did help: https://forums.opera.com/post/195641 .

                (Haven't restarted to Opera 70 by now; don't wanna know ... 😉 ).

                  @sgunhouse: Where exactly is it in Settings? I could not find it.

                    User @l33t4opera is looking into the issue with this extension, but other sidebar extensions are fine so it isn't the removal of the flag that is the issue.

                      @sgunhouse Of course the removal of the flag is the issue, because it was the only workaround for a fundamental flaw that was never fixed at the root, the high minimum width of the sidebar.

                        Not related. File a feature request or bug report, depending on whether you think the developers consider it a bug. (If they don't consider it a bug, then obviously a bug report would be ignored.)

                        I wouldn't mind it narrower myself, but I don't work for Opera and thus have no influence on their decisions..

                          I would just like my bookmarks open in a left-hand side panel and stay there if I desire. I do hope they sort something otherwise I will just go back to Firefox
