Doing my Ph.D. and started to use the side bar panels to organize topics and different courses, simplifying my life. However, using Opera on my newer home computer, while Chrome on my older institution crate, and disliking Chrome's version of "side bar" I installed Opera on it and tried to sync, to no avail. But I still had my ca 200 links in my home Opera. looking at ways to copy to the institution one.

My bad, in an effort to "force" a sync, I (which I done multiple times since last autumn), when starting up Opera, all my links was gone, all side bar panels wiped clean. Anyway to save the situation?

And, Opera, why not having a way to export side panels separatly or to mass import them as bookmarks? Side panels is supersmart, but feels halfway done from backup perspective.
