Since a while the amazon website is really slow. I really don't know what the problem is. It is slow at loading and scrolling, has problems when searching items and lacks on every use. I tried to disable extensions, cleared cache, cookies,.. nothing helps.
What could cause this?
I use Opera 73.0.3856.344, have a fast internet connection and the problems doesn't appear in Safari or Chrome.
yeah. thats how you do it. but it doesnt work. its everytime just the thumbnail of the site.
Every thumbnail i do has just the thumbnail picture of the website. I cant change it.
@leocg so its fake advertisement and not even possible. thats really sad, i am disappointed. users ask for centuries for custom thumbnails, now they get faked.
Hi,
i just updated to Opera 70, and in the advertisements and previews you can see the thumbnails in the speed dial, like here:
or here:
Both pictures are from the official Opera-website.
So, how can i use these kind of thumbnails? for me, its just possible to add sites to the speed dial and choose between some predefined thumbnail-pictures, but none of them is like in these previews (for example the netflix thumbnail: in the pictures there are a netflix icon on black, and in the other a netflix icon on white - its not possible to choose these thumbails for me).
So, is there a possibility to use these kind of custom thumbnails or is it just false advertisement to make it look better?
@leocg why did you move the subject? it is not the same problem.
@leocg no, thats something totally different.
@leocg its like @operaoperandi already mentioned, it doesnt matter if the setting is enabled.
@leocg did you see the picture? the thumbnails are oversized, so the font is way to big. and by being to big they are also overlapping, how you can see in the picture.. you can also see it in the pictures of @operaoperandi
@leocg no its not normal. you can clearly see the oversized font and the overlapping with .com etc, and also i recognize the difference to before the update
ok, but i hate it 
i like my speeddial cleaned up. why does that happen at all? seems like speeddial was not worked on. anyway, i hate that because of the oversize the the font is overlapping
After the update all of my thumbnails in the speeddial are oversized (you can see it in the picture below).
I tried to zoom in and out, and also to delete them and make new thumbnails. It still shows up like that.
In the bookmark (heart) menu, where you can save them and choose the thumbnail picture, its not oversized.
Does anybody knows a solution?
Since i updated Opera to new Opera 60.0.3255.27, there is no more Option to see the Sidebar only on Speed-dial page. I think its pretty annoying to have the sidebar fixed, but theres also no option to go to bookmarks etc without having it fixed. In the previous versions it was much better solved. Is there any possibility to have the sidebar just in Speed Dial page?
I also think its pretty annoying how every Update brings new Options, but old Options are just disappearing. Every Update is a pretty surprise, and you have to hope that nothing you liked is now gone. No wonder so much people are running away from Opera.
It happens often when i am opening a new tab. The thumbnails have completely new backgorund color, its very distracting. Sometimes it changes back when i close and open the new tab. But at the moment it wont go away.
I am on Version: 57.0.3098.76, but also older versions had the problem.
@leocg
what a pitty, its just distracting and useless
Whenever i hover over a link the url of the link appears on the bottom of opera. How can i disable this feature?
Its incredible annoying how bad the scrolling in the bookmarks-section and all other sections from sidebar like extensions is. Whats the problem here? Only section without that problem is settings.
I am on Version: 57.0.3098.76, but also older versions had the problem.
@leonhardttobias can you try again to update from the site mentioned before, https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/about/ ?
flash worked fine before update and works on any other browser.
This doesn't really mean you don't have to update.
Opera blacklists older versions of Flash when they have security issues, so that's why it could work before and not now.
And working on other browsers doesn't mean that much; Safari and Firefox use a different type of Flash plug-in (NPAPI instead of PPAPI) and Chrome comes with a bundled version of Flash instead of using the one installed on your system.
that worked, thank you.
i had to download the deinstall-manager and remove flash from my mac, then i download the new flash version on the website for opera and also the npapi-plug-in version via mac-settings. now it seems that everything is ok.
thank you for your help.
yes, same result.
settings in opera are set to let every site use flash player, uodated everything in mac settings.
flash worked fine before update and works on any other browser.
i have no new extensions and tried deactivating all of them, same result.
