RE: [Duplicated]Cannot get flow to connect my computer and my phone.Opera for Windows
@seantpg Same problem. I reported it a while ago and nothing has changed. However, oddly, it seems to work on regular Opera for Mac but not on Opera One.

Deepl Extension Not WorkingGeneral
Yesterday, the Deepl extension stopped working, including full page translation and right click translation on selection. This was after the latest update but I'm not sure that is the problem as it doesn't work in Beta or Developer either. I disabled all extensions and just added Deepl back in, no luck. Restarted, etc. etc. etc.
I did send a support request to Deepl, but that was before I tested three other browsers, all of which work fine with it. (Safari, Chrome, Vivaldi).
As I pay close to 100€/year for Deepl Pro, this is very important to me. Some translators (google, for example) don't give correct results for my language.
I need to solve this in the next day or two as I use it regularly, otherwise, I suppose it will be time for Vivaldi, which I don't find works as well for as Opera.

RE: 97.0.4719.28 Extensions issues (M1 Ventura)Opera for Mac
Opera 97.0.4719.28 MacOS Ventura 13.2.1 (M1)
I first noticed with this update that the Print function didn't work from a web page in Opera. The only way to make it work was to select Print Using System Dialog from the Print panel. Not very user-friendly. I did check with Chrome and Safari and they both worked fine.
Then I noticed that Bitwarden would not auto-fill. I could log in and find items in the vault, but it would not auto-fill. Once again, tested in Safari and Chrome and it worked fine.
I noticed other problems, notably Tab Suspender had stopped suspending tabs and Printlimator completely stopped working.
I did disable and re-enable extensions. I removed Bitwarden and reinstalled. No change.
So I installed an older version - 96.0.4693.31 - which is working fine. All of the above problems are gone. However, it could not open any of the existing tabs and I had to launch a new browser window and cut and paste each tab, a bit of a pain as I usually have at least 30 open and being used.
My biggest concern is that Opera will update the next time I have to reboot and I want to prevent that until I know that things are fine.

@nintendork07 Most browsers seem to be having trouble from the reports I've seen.

RE: Deepl Extension Not WorkingGeneral
@leocg It's not an "official" Opera extension, it's a Chrome extension so they are not going to do anything about it.

RE: 97.0.4719.28 Extensions issues (M1 Ventura)Opera for Mac
Sounds like it is time for a bug report given the lack of acknowledgement here.
I'm not all that bothered by using an earlier version except that it is set to auto-update when closed and reopened. Hopefully I won't have to do that until it's fixed.

RE: Opera 97.0.4719.28 Stable updateBlogs
Many of my extensions and printing a web page all stopped working. I reported this as a bug and on the Opera Forums but have heard nothing. It appears to happen when the extension needs to access a URL.

RE: 97.0.4719.28 Extensions issues (M1 Ventura)Opera for Mac
@spike666 So I had to restart Opera and it auto-updated to 4719.43. Miraculously, everything seems to be fixed. I haven't tried every situation, but the printing is restored and the main extension I use that has to access URLs (Bitwarden) works. A non-native (Google) app that sends URLs to email also works. So it looks like it may have been solved. Hopefully it will work for more than a day.

@max1c So your saying that people who have different experiences than you should not report them. Complaints only isn't going to fix anything.

RE: Deepl Extension Not WorkingGeneral
@segis I gave up. I'm using Vivaldi now. Killed an entire day setting it up, but Deepl works fine with it.

RE: Opera 118.0.5461.83 Stable updateBlogs
Why is there still no choice on a non-US search engine for the default? Opera on my mobile has Qwant, how hard is it to add Qwant or Ecosia?

RE: Opera 118.0.5461.60 Stable updateBlogs
@andrew84 I was referring to the default search engine choices in Vivaldi. I didn't get as far as the right click menu as I didn't use Vivaldi for other things I found.

RE: Opera 118.0.5461.60 Stable updateBlogs
@andrew84 I get a small popup automatically and don't have to go through the right click, find search, find the right search engine. This is something other browsers have done without waiting.

RE: Opera 118.0.5461.60 Stable updateBlogs
@pweiden You're right, the shortcut is problematic. The issue I have most often is that when you use a search not generated from the address bar, such as with the popup when you highlight something on a page, it uses the default only, there is no way to insert the shortcut.
This shouldn't be that difficult to add, and I considered switching to Vivaldi but I don't really like it.

RE: Opera 118.0.5461.60 Stable updateBlogs
How difficult can it be to add Qwant and Ecosia to the search engine choices? A lot of us are moving to EU products as much as possible and would prefer a search engine that is not coming out of the US.

[Duplicated]Ecosia and Qwant as OptionsSuggestions and feature requests
Ecosia and Qwant need to be added to the search engine list. It's easy to forget to type the letter before and the search for highlights won't go to them anyway. Kind of surprising for a European company, a lot of us are moving away from US software as fast as we can.

RE: Opera 113.0.5227.0 developer updateBlogs
@ralf-brinkmann How would you know? It doesn't show up in the list of extensions. It just started working for me without anything being done on my part. I don't have auto-update turned on.
