      Hello,

      Please, please, re-enable web-page content search with "/" key. It was there for a long time and disappeared with Opera re-design.
      Missing this feature is real pain-in-the-browser for me.

        Hi macmacz: Settings (Alt+P) > Shortcuts > tick the checkbox on the left of "Enable advanced keyboard shortcuts" 😉

        BTW: even without enabling the above option, you can search using "Ctrl+F" by default.

          Hello,
          Oh - great - I have "/" search again 🙂 Thank you.
          I know "Ctrl-F" shourtcut - just got used to "/" search for years.

          Forgive RTFM question - I'm getting back to Opera after some interrupt caused by Opera redesing that cut-off many features. Looks like I should search more before posting...

              I used to use this ALL the time -- but it doesn't work now, because if you enable it you can't type repeated slash, period, or commas into comment boxes -- it snaps you into search mode.
