What can we expect from Opera in terms of Manifest v3?
When and will Opera support Manifest v3? If so, in what form?
Will the webRequest API still be supported in v3 like Firefox decided to do?
When can expect manifest v2 to nolonger be available?
In case manifest v3 will be supported, it's very welcome if the store can support both manifest v2 and v3 during the transition period.
@qpayct Can confirm your issue about the CSP. When you remove it Opera states "Manifest format version is not supported.".
@gmiazga @qpayct @namero999 Currently the Opera Add-ons Store doesn't support manifest v3 extension packages. When can we expect the store to support them?
@gmiazga Thanks a lot for the explanations. Is there any reason why the non-blocking webRequest API and/or blocking webRequest API won't be supported in v3 by Opera?
@gmiazga Thanks for the MV3 timeline!
Is it already clear how Opera will handle browser-specific choices and features?
Mozilla Firefox decided to handle MV3 a bit different than Chrome to help developers and users:
(When) does opera want to stop supporting MV2 extensions on the store and in the browser? Due to all the issues with MV3, can we as developers ask for extended support of MV2 on the Opera Store? Or allow publishing both MV2 and MV3 at the same time for best backward compatibility?
@gmiazga By now we as developers and users really need to know when Opera will support Manifest v3 on the Opera Store. OR, if the Opera Store will be phased out and we need to migrate people to the Chrome Web Store.
Opera forced dark mode doesn't consider the fill color of svg objects.
Given this situation:
<div>
<svg>
<path d="something"></path>
</svg>
</div>
With this css:
div {
color: black;
fill: currentColor;
}
Opera GX forced dark mode would change the color to white, however, the fill color would stay black somehow. This needs to be resolved as many websites rely on the fill color like that.
@plamadestiny we can! You can expect this in the next update!
@david27 Might be true, yet I'm requesting this as a developer. Since Opera forced dark mode breaks my and other sites.
Personally I'm not using any forced dark mode solution.
@osmantseng Thanks for reporting this! I was not able to reproduce your issue.
What custom shortcut were you trying to add? Does the issue happen for any custom shortcut you try to add or only some?
When does the issue appear? When opening the dialog or only on the final step of actually adding the custom shortcut?
Screenshot would be helpful!
@Katsygin there is no harm in using extensions with manifest v2. Once Opera announces deprecation of manifest v2, many extensions like probably Bitwarden will update the extension they serve on the Opera add-on store to be manifest v3 supported. Many developers hold back tho for compatibility reasons and for some features which are only available in manifest v2.
@Katsygin the 4.9.2 version from AdBlock Plus as listed on the Opera add-ons store is using manifest v2. They might have a manifest v3 version ready when Opera makes the switch, that does not change the fact they currently serve a manifest v2 version on the Opera add-ons store. Trust me, I checked the running extension myself.
@leocg Yes, still would be nice if Opera would hide these warnings for the time being until they have an mv3 schedule.
@Katsygin Both bitwarden and Adblock Plus might use mv3 on the Chrome Web Store. On the Opera Store however, both of them are using mv2.
@Katsygin What version are you talking about? Seems the bitwarden extension provided to Opera is still using mv2.
@Katsygin See: https://forums.opera.com/topic/50569/manifest-v3-opera/20
Seems Opera forgot to inform developers about their mv3 timeline.
People are reporting mv3 warnings in the extensions panel.
https://forums.opera.com/topic/36230/app-launcher-customizer-for-google/32
Why is this appearing before Opera gave any statement on their mv3 schedule? What is the timeline?
@Katsygin Thanks for sharing! Don't worry, G App Launcher will continue to work on Opera.
@Katsygin Hi! Thanks for letting us know! Can you share a screenshot of what the message looks like?
