Are there even any official support people here or are everyone just Opera users?.....

RE: Not able to access Settings - ImportOpera for Windows
There's a folder called "Imported bookmarks" if you enter bookmarks in Opera25.
What file and in which folder is this pointing to ?
If I could know that maybe I could convert my bookmarks to .txt and do the same with the opera database file if you tell me what extention it is... Unless it's built in solid with the core program? Which would be quite embarassing for the programmer if he knew he was doing a kernel-like code which would be set and later changes would only be through plugins and other external programs being called on/read into a stack. -

Settings not available in Opera 2x?
What ? What is it I look at when entering 'settings' in Opera25 then, setting up the proxy, language, leeched files location & other tweaks.. Much like other programs "settings" ?
confused
If there's no settings in opera26 but an importer for settings, uhm doesn't exporting from opera25 work?
Since I'm not lying, my settings ARE there. They just lack the ability to import bookmarks/which might be a feature you're not putting under Settings at all I dunno.
Should be fixed though... and without anyone losing bookmarks.
Atleast resetted settings only take like 2mins to redo again.. -

Settings importer in opera 26beta... Yet no bookmarks importer?
Earlier Opera versions had this.
The capability excists, since you're given the option and can import (from Firefox,chrome etc - what it detects) during the install without a problem.
How hard can it be to edit that script for importing and making a patch?
Or atleast putting it up on a temporary link for people who really needs their "side of the internet".
I dont know what format your current bookmarks file is in but I doubt that its like 512kbs encrypted unaccessable data?I'm not a programmer, haven't written code since Assembler and Pascal but in theory this shouldn't be hard.
access either file, get data*.* , set up a stack, put import.file contents*.* in stack - unload stack in first accessed file at bottom. (save as bookmarks.ini or whatever extention you use).
Any converting problems like say me with my .json javascript export from firefox is just as easy to fix for the few export file options there are between these browsers.
Hell, a javascript or most scripts you could just edit with like notepad and fetch the urls from it since nothing is encrypted or compiled.
I don't care if I lose my folder alignment or descriptions of sites etc - aslong as I get the urls;
accessable from within Opera. -
RE: Not able to access Settings - ImportOpera for Windows
Um... I have the same problem. Sortof.
On win7 premium, Opera25.. Want to import bookmarks, and "missed my chance during the install"...
The thing is they are exported from Firefox in .json format.
I've had no problem importing and exporting between chrome, FF and opera before so I wasn't prepared for this.
That's okay though guys it's just a few years wading through crap creating these lists..
If there's no sollution, and the support people keep saying things like "I assumed your default browser was.." etc - guess I'm hopping back to linux or atleast changing to firefox or chrome... It's too bad I was really starting to dig it
