@rejzor said in Sync Extensions & Extension Settings:

I want extension syncing as well. But settings and state of extensions (enabled or disabled) should be per-PC. Sometimes you want different settings between PC and laptop devices. But having them synced is certainly a must.

In fact I want 3 more things to be synced:

• extensions
• RSS subscriptions
• search engines

Almost everyone use more than 1 device these days and managing all this stuff over and over again for each PC is just ridiculous, especially for things that are universally useful across all systems (liek synced custom search engines and keywords for them).

if all is going to be synced then ones personal extension settings need to be saved too, just like chrome does.

bug report created and sent

i'm onboard with this. love the feature in chrome. till then people can use hekasoft backup and restore. works great.

Hekasoft

opera isn't a os, so no to the added bloatware.

@leocg said in Flash Player Not Working On Xfinity:

Do you have VPN or Turbo enabled? They will turn on 'click to play', which is what you are seeing.

Try clicking on the arrow in the gray block or just add the site as an exception.

spoton worked perfectly turning off turbo and browsec. thanks for the quick fix.

@leocg said in Request: Extension Bar - resizable and custom order:

Reordering extensions icons is already implemented.

it JUST got implemented with the 49 developer and now the 49 stable.

@leocg said in What the Hell is Going On!!!:

I think that keeping old inactive topics opened in a tech forum may be a door to confusion, that why I prefer to close them from time to time.

agree in general, nut the lounge? post in that should stay open.

@scudmissile said in VPN engaged but get warning from ISP about a download:

@leocg
Sure was. I have looked at Opera's history and history shows the date that the ISP was told about the download.

Also history for other browsers shows no trace, and they would be blocked from a pirate site anyway as they don't have VPN's on them

get yourself the browsec vpn extension available for firefox, chrome, opera.

@acidinmyfridge said in IS VPN with problem now?:

@cbrown72701 currently trying ScriptSafe addon to prevent such things.
haven't tried uMatrix yet
@chuchkyschild are you using any of these addons? if so, are you pleased with the results?

safescript is like noscript for firefox and won't have any effect on WebRTC IP leak. i'll checkout umatrix and let you know what i think.

i've noticed that regardless if i'm using browsec or opera's built in vpn when i go to do a google search i have to prove i'm human, so the easiest thing to do is to temporarily disable the vpn to do my search. is there any chance in the future of being able to disable opera's vpn only on selected sites like we can in hola? thanks

i almost posted a new thread why peeps are having so many problems with flash. i don't mean to be rude but my guess is the enduser in most of these cases did something. the worst i had is when i forhot to rerun flash after my install of opera. alls been good since on stable, beta, and developer. as for sync i don't use it since i can bcompletely backup opera with hekasoft, or just save a copy of the parent folder in appdata.

@acidinmyfridge just added webrtc protect and privacy badger and ran the test and passed.

i've noticed i annoying feature of opera, and that is when you go to about and the browser updates and you need to close and restart the browser to complete the update opera does reopen the tabs you had open. firefox on the other hand, shuts down, updates, relaunches, and upon relaunce opens the tabs you had open. is there a chance of getting this in opera. thanks

combine these flash problem threads before we get too many of them. still need to combine all the vpn problem threads together.

@rudrick said in IS VPN with problem now?:

OPR VPN is fantastic - and has been - from get go.

But current functionality is not - and it's been like this for 1.5 months!!!

you do know you contradicted yourself, right? plus it's been A LOT longer than a month and a half that the builtin vpn has had issues.

@browzer1 said in Move extension sidebar to main bar.:

The concept that a browser can have two sidebars is ridiculous. Come on Opera. You can do better. Lay off the Virtual Reality nonsense and get back to basics.

agree one sidebar just with the icons to open the following full pages, and remove them and developer from the O dropdown menu. hate the way vavaldi has history setup. a side panel instead of a page. opera can learn from vavaldi how downloads are handled. if you have vavaldi set to ask where to save when you click to download an item vavaldi opens a nice looking download panel.

opera updated to 51, and now no more having to authorize every magnet link. perfect. thanks

agree 1,000,000%

@davehawley said in Disable access to local drives ?:

@chuchkyschild
Unfortunately the OP wants to block the C: drive as well!
I don't know what OS we're talking about, but presumably a recent version of Windows.
Presumably he's locked out users from using Windows Explorer to access the drives, maybe that will stop browsers as well, I don't know.

he should be able to limit which folders can be used on c as well or set it up to revert back to it's original state when the user logs off. i suggest the op either goes to sevenforums, eightforums, or tenforums depending with os he's using and ask them.
