      Found it pretty handy and useful, since I like to use shortcuts, it's pretty quick and easy to check websites
      is there a possible way to mantain a website active when web panel is inactive?
      let's say I want to keep the Steam chat active (https://steamcommunity.com/chat/), like the Whatsapp web panel that always stays on, but every 1-2 minutes it logs off when panel is not being used
      otherwise it's good for performance (i believe) that it suspends itself when is not being used. maybe make it a custom option for some case like this? just a suggestion, it's still pretty useful extension, thanks!

        Hi @superloki

        Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to keep web pages loaded when the extension is closed/inactive.
        Great that you find the extension useful.

              Hi! Love your extension!
              Is it possible to add the option to "focus the first input field" on a website when the sidebar opens? This would be awesome as I would like to do my time tracking with keyboard only (open sidebar with keyboard shortcut and then just starting typing...).
              Thank you very much!

                @johanneswidm Good idea, unfortunately Opera hasn't reviewed my last submission, which is almost a year old. Therefore, I will wait until it has been reviewed before I continue working on the extension.

                  Could you please add a feature that would allow to keep the tab constantly loaded? Used this for my music service and it stopped working

                    Thank you for this powerful tool. Could you add, that the web panel save the cookies settings because I must click every refresh or searching something to accept the cookies?

                          It stopped working for me. Navigation on a previous cached web works well but trying to load any website from the address bar returns the message: "It takes time to load this page. Check the url and/or your internet connection." and the website doesn't load.

                            I submitted an update a year ago, but it still hasn't been reviewed. I have sent a message to the reviewers to see when it will be done.

                              @dahotfunk Now the new version has been reviewed and released. Could you test the web page again to see if it works in the new version? Also, do you have the same issue on all pages you visit? For example, does it work on https://en.wikipedia.org?

                              One more thing: Please check that you have the latest version of the extension at opera://extensions/ , it should say version 1.5

                                @sealoftime When the panel has been closed or unpinned, there is unfortunately not much I can do as far as I know. But if it stays pinned the page should stay loaded.

                                    I have added this to my to-do list, I'm not promising anything however! If and when implemented I will notify you.

                                      Please check if the problem is present in the latest version (1.5).
                                      If so, could you post a small screenshot?

                                        @gustavwiz Thanks for your fast reply, Gustav!

                                        I've tried https://en.wikipedia.org/ and it works. I also have tried some other websites like YouTube, IMDb or Metacritic and all of them worked.

                                        However, despite https://www.google.com/ loads without problems on a regular Opera browsing window, it still doesn't load on Web Panel. I tried https://www.bing.com/ too and it didn't load neither.

                                        Yes, I've checked and my version number is 1.5

                                        I've uploaded a screenshot for your reference:

                                        Thanks again for your time

                                          @gustavwiz This would be a great feature. I admit my first intention when I installed this extension was to have a music/videos website playing in background with the panel mainly hidden and just reveal it occasionally to jump to any specific song to then hide it again. But, after a time using it, even though it doesn't have this feature, the extension is a great deal. It's a pity bg play couldn't be implemented.

                                            @dahotfunk Yes, some sites block it from being displayed in an iframe (and I use an iframe for this extension to display websites), and Google are one of those. Especially search engines tend to do this, as Bing, Duckduckgo and Yahoo don't work either. Some options that do work are Ecosia, Startpage and Aol, which are now the default included search engines.

                                            One other option is to use Google search in a regular browser tab, go the the correct page, and then press the "open page in panel" button (left arrow, at the bottom of the panel).
