Until Opera 60.0.3255.27 the behavior was as expected: You "minimize" Opera with the red button and it will be (active) in the dock. Click the Opera-Icon in the dock again and it will open instantly a new window. That's what I want. With the latest Opera ..... .65 a click on the (active) Opera-Icon in the dock causes... nothing. The Opera app appears in the menu bar without a new window, you have to click inconvenient "Open a new window" or "Open a new tab" in the (context)- menu.
Sorry, this won't help you, but I never had this problem with Opera. My speed dial tiles are always in the same order I wanted and never shifted. It must be some preference that not works well.
Updated to the latest Opera build and noticed, that Opera will not restore to a window, when it was minimized with the red button (macOS 10.14.4).
That's annoying. I had to minimize it with the yellow button....
Anyone else?
Newest version Opera 60.....70. Still the same bugs.
BTW: Do Opera developers sometimes visit this forum?
Are you sure? It's true that when you type in the address bar in private mode, search suggestions are shown, but these are not from private mode, they are suggestions from normal mode use. Searches in private mode are never saved. At least a test at my end showed this. Of course it would be nicer if no search suggestions were shown in private mode.
I can't reproduce your problems here. Everything is going well. I know this is no help for you, but I have to mention it.
Some of us have already written a bug report. We can hardly do anything else at the moment, unless someone finds a solution by chance (and tells us about it).
If we are a minority that does not use the sidebar, it may take a long time for the bug to be fixed. The developers seem to have more important things to do...
Well, there seem to be several reasons for this error. Since I displayed the sidebar, I don't have any "Skip to main content" messages or buttons to press anymore. It works for me. I suppose you've probably already set Opera to its original state (restore). Maybe it's still useful to check the extensions.
For those who are interested:
I have just made a discovery (a workaround?). Normally, I've hidden the sidebar because I don't like the design with the upright buttons, but as a test, I've displayed the sidebar, and there you go: The "Skip to content”-messages have disappeared. Fingers crossed!
Version: 66.0.3515.27, still the same issue, nothing changed.
