Hope this is the right place for this. I offer the usual applies if I miss something from another post.

It is about the news portion of the browser.

So on the news part of the beta ---
I'm one of those who are sensitive to bandwidth: I do a lot of roaming and this can be expensive in foreign parts if one is not careful. I try not to use my personal bandwidth on phone or tablet and always use a free WiFi cafe for my daily dose of downloaded digital newspapers.

So my preference is to download things just the one time and then have an offline copy to come back to during the day. Otherwise, for me, the news feed would always be off except at home with my tame WiFi.

So from that perspective I'd like to be able to download news items for offline reading and disable any background activity from the news function. Naturally that would need a means to delete the download.

Also I note that the same control in settings turns off both news and notifications. Maybe this is a terminology thing about the meaning of notifications, but it would be good if those two commands could face separate controls.

In all settings apart from this one, tapping an App on the left causes OperaMax to do its thing.

But in Savings it seems that tapping on the left causes OoeraMax to stop doing its thing.

Is there a mistake in the wording or otherwise what is the logic?

Probably there's a third question ,- what have I misunderstood!

I did not notice that - thanks for pointing it out.

Have a look at the topic "Looking after old friends" in Suggestions: You will find some links there, one or both of which may help you to be reunited.

Opera does not seem to be in the mode of replying to questions, so I thought I'd give you the information:

You will find it here:

I suspect you've not been around long, rafaelluik, or maybe not touched on the old Opera social scene.

Be cynical if you want to but don't assume others are.

My request in the OP was quite straight forward, and if Opera is treating the Suggestion Box as a Suggestion Box and not a Recycling Bin I still await an answer one way or the other.

Well Opera, what is your answer? My request was not SPAM, It was a genuine request for support.

You owe us.

Because old favourites such as The Lounge and Debate & Discussions (D&D) have been axed, previous My Opera Folk have had to start their own forums to continue their association with others who have grown to be their friends over the years, or at least respected protagonists!

I respectfully request that Opera provide a highlighted link to The DnD Sanctuary ( http://thedndsanctuary.eu/ ) and Vivaldi ( https://vivaldi.net ), which have each their own attractions, so that old friends can be reunited and the Opera Folk Members are guided towards the same level of camaraderie as was previously achieved in My Opera. Such would be in all our interests.

Thank you

String
