@iwua I'm using a 20 € Rapoo mouse and don't have this issue.

@mathias87 that doesn't exactly solve anything for me

@iwua But it helps you by saying that the problem doesn't happen with that mouse model/brand.

By the way, I've checked here with my Microsoft mouse and both back and forward buttons are working.

1 ) As far as I know it's by design when you use the address bar/start page search and will happen no matter how you go back.
If you open Google and search from there, the back button should lead you back to the results page

@leocg Usually you need to set the mouse to something like "System default", I'm not even using the Logitech software with my M590 trackball and it works fine that way.

@leocg not sure how do you mean that, if I use address bar search, open a google result and then click on back button in opera browser - not using mouse, it goes back fine to the results - the same for forward

@iwua i use the MX Master3 and the MxMaster2 before that, and always has existed the same problem - the mouse-forward button - at its system default setting - does not work from the speed dial page.. so f'n annoying
so, its not just a matter of "it works for me and i'm a forum-cop, so there is no problem and we're just gonna ignore you for 2 month", it goes beyond that one persons issue.

I'm on a Razer Deathadder Elite and the problem exists for me as well. I've only recently switched back to Opera so there may be settings I'm unaware of but googling has been anything but helpful.
I've found that if I place the cursor in the address field then forward click MAY work - i.e. sometimes the first time, sometimes the third time - also on the Speed Dial page. But it's not a satisfactory solution as it is easier simply to click on the browser 'Forward' button.

This has been the case for a while, check: https://forums.opera.com/topic/31666/backward-and-forward-buttons-on-logitech-mouse-not-working-with-opera/54

I still have this problem today.

Seems weird that a bug can be reported and ignored for such a long time

@tiagodbs Which problem? The Forward button not working on Speed Dial you and I can't do anything about, the rest should work fine if your mouse isn't trying to change the buttons.

@sgunhouse The issue with mouse buttons.

Back and Forward on my mouse don't work, but work on all other browsers and apps.

I'm on macOs Monterey 12.6

@tiagodbs You posted in the Opera for Windows forum, repost in the Opera for Mac forum.

Seems like by default registered Opera application is a wrong one, i.e. Logitech is not recognizing it. I deleted it from Logitech Options and added once again (selecting Opera.exe from the installation folder). Registered custom keys on it and all works fine!
