Reorder categories in My Opera Links page

, , ,

Suppose you have 3 categories in My Opera Links page in following order and you want to move Opera to the position 1.

  1. Softwares
  2. Everything Else
  3. Opera

There is no option to reorder categories in My Opera Links page.

  1. Open your My Opera Links page.
  2. You want to move Opera category to position 1 and currently Softwares category is in position 1. Open edit links to both Softwares & Opera categories.
  3. Right click on page and select Source in both EDIT CATEGORY pages.
  4. Swap the values of catid below the line EDIT CATEGORY in source, press Apply changes button in top left corner and close source tabs.
    EDIT CATEGORY
    </h2><p class="nomarg"><label for="catname"><b>Category name:</b></label></p><input type="hidden" name="catid" value="539471" />
  5. Press save button in both EDIT CATEGORY pages.

Now you will have categories in following order.

  1. Opera
  2. Everything Else
  3. Softwares

I tried it at http://my.opera.com/opera.mini/links/ where I'm one of the moderators. So, maybe I can't do it there.

Edit: I just get alert "There are no passwords in forms on this page"

But it gives error message. :frown:
400 Bad Request

An error was encountered and the page could not be displayed.

Maybe you forgot to fill out a form properly? If you arrived here following a link on the site, we would appreciate being told about it.
