Thanks, would be good if there was a test page somewhere, where we could determine whether we have set things well.

Great, keep up the fantastic work and happy new year!

Hi Tamil!

First of all, congratulations for a magnificent page! I want to know if you can give me a hand with a problem I am having: Customizing my Opera, I got rid of the "Create New Tab" Button, which is on the right of the page tabs. I managed to get it back in, but now it appears OUTSIDE the little back triangle, not IN it. I tried reseting the toolbar, but it did not work.

Here is a link to an image so you can see the situation.

Number 1 is how it is right now, and Number 2 is how I want it to be. Any help will be appreciated!

Best regards from a fan in Brazil.

Matias.

It seems you didn't add it properly.

Right click on tab bar > Customize... > Buttons > Browser > Drag & drop new tab button inside the small triangle.

[or]

Add the following in Toolbar Configuration file under [Pagebar Floating.content] after closing Opera. 
Button0, 1647828869=New page, 1
