I've been meaning to leave some feedback on Opera's forums, but as my account name is my full name, I don't want it to be displayed as my user name. Is there any way to change my displayed name? Oh, and the new Opera will be out tomorrow: Pic. Also confirmed on Opera's Twitter feed reading "Tomorrow". ufarn fucked around with this message at 18:33 on Jun 2, 2009 |

I guess I'm too used to Firefox's extender where I can scroll the tabs if I move the mouse wheel by hovering over the tab bar. ufarn fucked around with this message at 20:39 on Jun 3, 2009 |

Just came to whine that Opera choked, losing my entire session of tabs along with it. Guess it's a beta and all.

Opera 10.0 beta is being incredible wonky. The newest snafu is reducing the quality of pictures, as if they'd been through 50 Paint conversions. It also hangs in terms of bandwidth on occasion. Anyone with the same issues? Another strange thing; I'm pretty sure it didn't save some of my bookmarks, but that's speculation I can't prove - unfortunately.

Colour me unamazed. Weird that they hyped it so much - albeit without any big campaigning, though, but they were pretty bold about it.

Is there a reason for why Opera 10.0 beta doesn't (auto)update to the version with Unite? Are they making two separate versions to make using Unite optional?

Might check out Unite - after they've upped the security (seriously, URL-extensions for passwords?) and allow me to pick my own profile name, so it doesn't get associated with my user name. Speaking of which; my mate's Firefox tab crashes when accessing my file-sharing link. Can I get some reports on the success rate of connecting your friends to your links? ufarn fucked around with this message at 18:47 on Jun 16, 2009 |

I think the crux of this discussion is that the hype thing they were trying to get going was only going to be seen by the tech savvy goons, whereas the service it was teasing in no way is meant for the target audience of the teaser page. If you think this is a new direction Opera is taking, no offence intended, wake up! Have you ever been to My Opera? It's a horrible sight to be hold, to be sure, but it's there, and has been for a while. I only noticed it because I use Opera Link. Opera's claim to fame is its incorporation of a lot of features in one product, and the aforementioned projects are some of their ways of improving on that platform. It's not like it's taking a new direction and abandoning the tech savvy fans.

Got this message in a browsing session when connecting to certain sites: "A page on the public Internet requests data from your private intranet. For security reasons, automatic access is blocked." Bad, right? Done some malware scans, and nothing so far, although the search is still going on in Malwarebytes and Eset Smart Security. I'll probably shut off the internet most of the time, but that's not a viable solution to a problem that potentially is persistent. Any idea about the cause?

Casao posted:Has anyone discovered a way to disable the new tabs thing? It's cute, but I don't like it. I keep middle clicking to close tabs and missing by a bit and suddenly my tab bar takes up 1/4 of my screen. Like to disable it, if anyone knows how. I'm the kind of person who uses at least twenty tabs at at time, and there just aren't any browsers who address this near-satisfactorily.

RoadCrewWorker posted:Usually when operas tabs go above 50, i switch to the "Windows" panel which has handy 'quick find' filtering to quickly switch and drag tabs between Opera windows - it even has multiselect with shift or ctrl. Im still looking for a better "Sort" option, though i guess the name sorting is okay in most cases.

I was just installing some Greasemonkey script, and when I started Opera again, all my tabs were gone(!). Now Opera won't load my session, but starts with a blank page. Anyone experiencing the same thing (running the latest Snapshots)? EDIT: Weird; now it's loading some previous tabs, but only SOME of them. Odd. EDIT: And now it won't. Sporadic, I guess. EDIT2: And I've only JUST found the hidden Restore Previous Session (autosaved) - too late for me to restore the session, since it's already been succeeded (or any of my previous crashes). I think Opera confuses "features" with "easter eggs". ufarn fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Jul 6, 2009 |

http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/. Also, check out these skins; http://my.opera.com/community/customize/skins/info/?id=8888 in particular looks great. I'm considering replacing the default theme with it. Only downside to it is that the favicons in the tabs (and text if you have that enabled, I guess) aren't as big as with the default theme. It's not a problem to people who regularly have twenty-or-more tabs open, of course.

It's not an affirmative answer, but I haven't had any positive experiencing with the one-or-two urlfilters posted in the OP. You should manage by blocking wildcards such as "*adbanner*", "*adfarm*", "ads.*", "ad.*", "m1.*" with a few additions. They are usually the lovely banners you shouldn't feel sorry for depriving site owners off. Usually I prefer to keep the banners if they don't annoy me to death, as a way of paying your respects to the - bandwidth of the - site owner.

Has anyone tried customizing their Opera Speed Dial? It's a bit of an eyesore if left by its default look. Opera issued a contest for whatever reasons with some nice entries. Resources here, here and here. I haven't wrapped my head around everything, but if anyone start making a customized Speed Dial page, feel free to share your thumbnail icons with the rest of us, and we might be able to create a nice collection of thumbnails. Speaking of which, does anyone know where I can find a high-res SA logo?

Except I need some proper adblocking. I've tried a 3rd party urlfilter.ini, and adsweep, and they're just.. not Adblock Plus. Is there a better solution, other than running a proxy locally? Remember that you can right-click on a page and choose "block content".

Is there a way to protect some of your bookmarks from showing as shortcuts up in your address bar when you type in it? I, er, have some links I'd like didn't show up when other people use my computer. There's are right-click folder features from what I can tell.

I want to use an ad filter, but I only want to use it too weed out the most atrocious ads - not the harmless and purdy ones like SA and Fusion Ads for instance. Is there some sort of "light" ad filter for Opera?
