          Had exactly the same problem (no Contacts appearing in Yahoo -- seemed to work fine in other browsers.
          So along with the rest of you I disabled "Block Trackers" in Opera and everything back to normal again. Good catch ! Thanks

          Wondering the practical consequence of disabling "Block Trackers" ? Does Opera support know of the problem it is causing ? Was just about to abandon Opera for another browser. Glad this worked out OK.

            @countrygirl1411 I thought I was following you, but when @jacie added the screenshot, the light came on for me. Thanks.

              Since "Block Tracking" probably adds some value, I suppose you could leave in turned on and add Yahoo to the "Exception List". Best of both worlds.

              Anyone tried this?

                @gp123 Yes, I did enable 'block trackers' but in 'manage exceptions', adding www.yahoo.com' wasn't enough, I had to add the mail link: "https://mail.yahoo.com/d/folders/1" and now my contacts are visible. 🙂

                  @gp123 Just tried it and contacts went away again. Took it off list and contracts back.

                    @countrygirl1411 You need to add "https://mail.yahoo.com/d/folders/1" to your exclusions list, then it will work properly.

                      @marcoangels Thanks. That is what I added. My contacts came back without that. Adding that took them away again on my computer.

                          Yes that is what matters.

                          Many thanks to all that posted with different things they tried as that is what made me think about disabling the trace blocker.

                                @earthman If you add that exception to the list, you can turn the tracker back on. "https://mail.yahoo.com/d/folders/1"

                                      The solution which worked for me was:
                                      Opera settings > track > block trackers

                                        Got it working with tracker blocking.
                                        Disable tracker blocking to get your contacts back.
                                        Save your contacts as a .csv file.
                                        Enable tracker blocking.
                                        I didn't even have to reload the contacts.

                                            Go to setting > advanced > privacy protection and disable block trackers.
