option to hide bookmarks in the search bar so it looks cleaner

this is my first time here and i want an option to toggle on/off this feature that every other browsers have but not opera... that would look really clean and be another win for opera looks... (also could be good for privacy when someone is on your computer and is searching something..

Synchronization in the wrong direction

@unphixedBug As far as I know, synchronisation should happen on both ways.

Bookmark keywords

novomente — Invalid Date

I like Opera but I use Firefox as a primary web browser. That's because I miss a feature Firefox has and Opera doesn't.

The feature is Bookmark keywords (shortcuts).

With this feature each bookmark has the possibility to have a keyword and after writing the keyword to the address bar followed by pressing enter on a keyboard, browser will go immediately to the appropriate web site.

Opera has this features only for search engines (called shortcuts).

This missed feature make me to stay with Firefox.

Automatic transition of synchronized content

sgunhouse — Invalid Date

@izyakantorovich Speed dials are avalable bur kept separate (in case speed dials from a personal device might not be appropriate or allowed on a work device). If you look into Bookmarks you'll see a section for "Other speed dials" which could be copied to yout current device's Speed dial folder.

I don't personally use sessions; I know the option exists but couldn't say for sure where to find tabs from other devices.

Bookmarks missing/Sync not working

drjk888 — Invalid Date

Hi,

I have Opera running on 2 machines (Mac and Windows). I turned on Sync on both machines.

Background: I use the Bookmarks Bar on both machines and that's where I normally keep my bookmarks. I store bookmarks in folders and subfolders.

On my Mac, I created a new subfolder and added a bunch of bookmarks.

Then on my Windows, I opened Opera and the top level folder is gone! I see it when I open the bookmarks.bak file. But since it's dated yesterday, it doesn't have the new subfolder and bookmarks I added on my Mac.

Question: Why did Opera delete the top level folder from my bookmarks bar? What's going on? How to get sync to work properly? Is this a bug with Synchronization?

Bookmarks "reset" while synchronizing

somenumber — Invalid Date

I've had many bookmarks (for movies etc.), but I never synced them. Today I turned on "Sync Everything" and it synchronized my Bookmarks with an earlier version of my Bookmark list. In some folders, some bookmarked websites are missing, some things I've removed from my bookmarks have appeared again. Weirdly some Folders (and their contents) I've created not that long ago have stayed, so it seems to be not that consistent.

I doubt it but, would there be any way to recover my old Bookmark Bar before I synchronized everything?
Thinking about it, I'm not completely sure if anything is missing, some things just seem to be out of order, but if there is a way to revert this "sync incident" it would be great.

Bookmark Folder Icons

Is there currently any way to change the icons for Bookmark Folders? Upload a small image? Choose one of the thumbnails out of the sites in the folder? If not it would be a pretty neat update idea!!

Sync - Missing Bookmarks

[[global:former_user]] — Invalid Date

The only thing that I could recommend is to export your bookmarks regularly in the future, so you can restore them from there or transfer them to another device.
Sorry, I don't have any better solution by now, but I'd like to support your request because I have had similar problems on various occasions:
when synchronizing, it went the wrong way: it did not update the stored bookmarks with the new ones but removed the new bookmarks on the computer, so the former version was restored on it (although adjusted the "right way" round in Settings).
It happened too many times so I don´t consider synchronizing a safe process on Opera. It might function sometimes but I think it´s better to have your bookmarks exported and stored.

Temporary bookmark or link collection

It would be great if we get temporary bookmark or link collection feature in opera mobile as well as in other platforms.

[Duplicated]Option to change new bookmarks behaviour

YourCole — Invalid Date

I've seen many people have different ways of organizing their bookmarks, for me, I want new bookmarks to be at the bottom, and old bookmarks to be at the top, other people prefer the contrary.

I'm just asking for an options feature, it could be located either in Opera GX's settings or in the Full bookmarks view menu, this feature would bring an options menu where users could be able to change new bookmarks behaviour, the only option I am really interested in is the option to change between new bookmarks being saved on top or at the bottom of bookmarks folders, of course, some feedback could be obtained from users to add more features to this options menu.

Bookmarks keep appearing

Ponygon77 — Invalid Date

I'm beyond confused, I can't seem to get rid of these random bookmarks that keep appearing. It seems like somehow other users' bookmarks are being saved to my list because there are tens of bookmarks to websites in languages I don't speak that keep popping up in my bookmarks list no matter how many I delete.

Recovering password and bookmarks after storage wipe

segarobot — Invalid Date

Hi everyone,

I recently needed to wipe my drive after my PC got stuck in a startup loop (tried 100 different things to fix before wiping to no avail). I put the drive into a different PC, backed up my Users and both Program Files folders to a drive before wiping. I have put it back on this PC now that it's working. Installed GX and signed in. I was thinking signing in would have brought back my bookmarks and pws especially with sync on with GX on phone but I'm not seeing anything. What am I missing here? I read that it could be in AppData/Roaming but despite the backup having AppData it doesn't have a roaming folder just Local for which it DOES have an opera folder inside. Please let me know what I can do I had hundred of passwords and bookmarks before this it would be a shame to lose them. Thank you for any help.
