well, Chrome allows adding other search engines as default
and there are other ways to prevent malicious code to add search engine as default, like strict user actions (eg. it must be performed by user)
I know that search engines are they way of income ...but still kinda sucks
new version 4.7.0 is on the store, with the fix for dark theme
but...I think there is some issue with update
auto update doesn't work in my case
even if I force update, nothing happens
(clicking on the button in top right corner on internal extensions page opera://extensions/ )
If you are experiencing the same issues, I would suggest to reinstall extension
remove it first from opera and then go to
https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/v7-bookmarks
and install it again
btw. if some of the options that you change on settings page don't work (like changing theme, additional dark theme, show url, number of children in folders...)
in that case use reload button on top of the sidebar (Opera UI)
new sidebar is doing some kind of caching, and even re-opening extension in sidebar doesn't apply new changes
same here, default scroll is too slow (small step)
i'm using extension smoothscroll
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/smoothscroll/nbokbjkabcmbfdlbddjidfmibcpneigj
where can i adjust step and all other things
to be able to install it from chrome addons page, you will need another extension (just temporarily, you can remove it after you install chrome extensions)
https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/download-chrome-extension-9/?display=en
there is no internal scroll step size/speed to tweak it
I think there's only one way to hide extension buttons from toolbar (without disabling extension)
version 3.3.3 is on the store with the fix for dark theme
you can force update:
...or you can wait for auto-update
pleas export your sessions first, just in case (from extension options page)
and do that regularly... it's a smart thing to do
@andrew84: yes, I can confirm this
It takes around 4-5 seconds to render search results, plus couple of seconds until panel gets responsive
same for closing search (click on X in search form)
also, opening folders with larger number of bookmarks is delayed about 1 sec
@repter
i could only suggest that you try in private window that scenario
(maybe some extension is breaking g-search behavior, and by default they dont work in private window)
if that doesn't help, you should write bug report
you can use V7 History for that
either search for facebook in search field...
...or even better, simply click on facebook icon in sidebar list
this will act as a search for facebook in all titles and url's in history (much faster without typing in search field)
when you get results, there will probably be some items that are not from facebook domain
(like google results in red because there is a term facebook in title)
if you wish to filter only results from facebook domain, click on search term on top (in green)
this will give strictly results from favicon domain that you clicked
then click three dots on the top left corner and choose delete all
ps. this can be very slow process if there is a lot of url's (more than 100)...pls wait until extension is finished deleting

I had issue with colors prevously (couple of months ago)...whole browser window was tinted with reddish color
Instead of changing flags in browsers (Opera and Chrome)
I changed color profile in Win10 settings (previously I had color profile for my monitor)
but this is not that kind of problem...I think
@whiskey: Extension was made more than 6 years ago, when Opera didn't have bookmarks in sidebar, and overall Opera design was much different. This now is unified extensions sidebar and webUI sidebar that was added and modified over the years.
@NeotekGuru
Hi
You need to enable it in Opera
go to internal Opera extensions page chrome:/extensions and under V7 Sessions click Allow in incognito
@nksoft
addition to what @kechristen said...
I don't have that problem
but my first guess would be that your antivirus (or firewall) is treating new Opera executable file as threat and checking every action, request etc.
@whiskybreath
just for the record, I (or better to say extension, any) can't affect sidebar width, that's strictly user action (dragging it to max- min width)
That said, Your desktop monitor looks zoomed, that's why I thought you changed DPI in windows
Your laptop monitor matches the size of Opera browser on my screen (and the min sidebar width)
@whiskybreath I see
By your screenshot, I think that's the minimum width of the sidebar.
On my monitor (1920x1080 resolution) minimum sidebar width is 320px. (normal DPI)
By your screenshot it looks like it's 400px, but you either enlarged the photo or changed some DPI settings in windows
I could make a bug report/request to Opera to evaluate that decision about minimum width, but I think that's tightly related to other content in sidebar (like messengers)
@whiskybreath
can you post a screenshot of your problem?... feel free to blur private data
and pls post your Opera version and OS
EDIT: and does it happening with pinned sidebar too?
@klapsha1214
I don't advertise any access, system is displaying them automatically based on extension features.
Maybe you didn't use Opera for long time, or blocked updates with firewall .. I don't know why you get new permission message
If you don't want to use it, fine by me.
cheers
@andreypa
try to install older version of extension...
Opera 58 doesn't support new features and that's why is broken
so either install latest version of Opera, or previous version of V7 Bookmarks
here are the instructions
https://forums.opera.com/topic/33917/v7-bookmarks/77
@klapsha1214 that's not a new thing
it exists in V7 Bookmarks for years now (since I implemented this feature)
basically, when user drags link onto bookmarks sidebar to create one, extension needs to fetch that page and extract page title from it. Otherwise, bookmark title would stay as URL, and that looks weird.
Because of that, extension needs access to all websites, and that is presented to users in a message:
"This extension has access to your data on all sites."
Permission message looks weird, but technically is correct.
and it's not your data...it's any data.
