Can't turn off tab islands
-
hucker last edited by huckerI assume it's Tab Islands which is causing this I don't want any specialised island stuff I just want the browser to operate like they used to.
for example I have three tabs open let's call them A, B, and C. in tab A I click something which causes another tab to open, I expect it to become tab D but it is placed between tabs A and B therefore I've no idea where all the tabs are. To me I thought this is what Tab Islands were, collecting similar tabs together. I've turned it off but it's still happening

Ignore the above post which the broken Opera forum won't let me edit.
I'd like to turn off tabs altogether. When I click a link in a webpage, I don't really want another tab at all, it just ends up with a mess of 50 tabs and I have no idea where anything is.
Please tell me Opera allows this?!?! Or is there an extension to stop these tabs breeding like rabbits?

For the post we're supposed to ignore, https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/classic-tabs/ has an option to make tabs open at the end of the tab bar instead of next to the active tab.
For the no tabs thing, I think you want a "reuse existing tab" option for links that are set to open in a new tab. I see https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/link-in-current-tab/cbkcdebbfbegnmbephalggnchfebihbl might do that, but didn't test.

@burnout426 Thanks! That extension works great and stops everything opening new tabs. (I've never liked tabs appearing unless I open one myself for a completely different purpose!)
I'd forgot the newer Opera versions allow pretty much all Chrome extensions to work.
