March Release

march release

This month, the biggest change to My Opera is most likely the Google search box we've added to the community pages, along with a new theme Fred has made: "Blue line". :hat:

Changelog:

  • A new blog design has been added. It's called "Blue line", so check it out from "Design" in your account settings. :up:
  • Access rights for group photo albums should now work properly again.
  • The *really* old blog designs have been updated to newer ones.
  • A Google search box has been implemented. Use it to either search on the Web or within the community pages.
  • Not a My Opera issue, but avatars on dev.opera.com are now showing again.
  • Logged in users can now use HTML in blog comments.
  • In Watches, posts with new comments now points to the first unread comment, rather than the very last one.
  • The sidebar calendar on blogs no longer links to empty blog posts.
  • The forum rules page now works properly again (it actually show the rules).
  • The edit options are no longer shown for all photo albums, but only to the (logged in) author.
  • Uploading language files now works again.
  • The XML FOAF document now links correctly.
  • Tag clouds should be slightly nicer to look at now.

That's it for now everyone. We hope to have a new release again in a month, or so. banana

How to remove from my blog ?

nice. it is always good to have new stuff :smile: (and of course fix the old, that was created by bringing in the (then) new :D)

I always like to test new themes :smile:

I also tried editing the comment, but got the same message after the submit button was pressed.

oh and the green search button could maybe be changed on the dark myopera bar? I know how to do it in my blog (probably :smile:), but maybe it should look a bit different anyway. or is it just me?

Thanks for all the goodies. Opera has always been the best. It's even better now.

The new Google search box is a bit too excessive. I definitly don't like it!!!
How to remove from my blog ?
I think it's a real loss of style...

Sorry, but it's my opinion...

thanks! The google search box is a useful tool indeed. :up:

Hmm... How can I remove this search box? I don't like it.:yuck:

I'd have to disagree with the tag clouds looking nicer...on my blog all tags but one are large-sized, which I'm pretty sure is incorrect.

Many people don't like (and no use) google :down: :down:

Let's me choose Opera :worried:

them having the google search does this mean they abandoned that terrible yahoo search as well within mini?

By VegaTheTerrible, # 13. March 2008, 13:09:18

Yeah.

Also there are now ads on the info pages. Thanks for fixing the html encoding in code blocks bug.

I think Opera should update Google search to old search box in sidebar :sherlock:

Except for Google's box, this is a nice update. :up:

I noticed that it is possible to access photo directly after the upload. This is really helpful if you add photo to a large album with many images. THANKS!!!!

By Nikio, # 13. March 2008, 13:46:21

I'm quite surprised about all this negativity...

No one seems to care about Opera using Google everywhere else to help its revenu stream, but suddenly there is this soaring bad feedback?

But on the other hand; my costum design looks awful now. CAN SOMEONE HELP, PLEASE?





PS: I can't edit or delete previous comment, so I'm posting a new one

I didn't like the adds either, but everything else is fine... but, I just have one question.

When will OperaMail will go Google to????

I want OperaMail to go Google!!!! NOW! :wink:

By eztigma, # 13. March 2008, 14:05:08

I personally love Google! And thanks for the update - it's very nice! :smile:

By 67shelby, # 13. March 2008, 14:16:37

ill give it bad feedback cuz its an eyesore it looks like trash to me personally and ads who likes those to begin with other than the people benefiting from them? not I thats for sure.
and whats the point of a google search integration? If youre using opera browser there is already a google search bar on our right, if youve disabled the search bar from your browser chances are you dont want a search on your blog either.
so now i have double the search ability and if im feeling too lazy to move my mouse over 5 cm then im in LUCK! cuz bam its placed right there horribly throwing off the classy professional look of my blog.

By VegaTheTerrible, # 13. March 2008, 14:26:51

now opera mail going google youre definitely on to something!

By VegaTheTerrible, # 13. March 2008, 14:27:54

the google search provides something we have not had before: a complete site search. yesterday it was only possible to search for blogs on the blogs page and photos on the photo page, etc.

now, with google, we have a complete site search. and it has "my.opera.com" selected by default, so you will search within the my opera site.

:down: Now we have two search boxes the google one and the blog one, I think this is not good.
I want only one search box with radio button for select WEB - OPERA - BLOG and BLOG must be the default.
Do you really think that a visitor will ever use the inside google toolbar instead of the browser one ? :confused:

What to say more? Finally we can. :yes:
And finally there isn't a so big blank space in the top bar (you planed it, true? :wink: ). :up:

@barbone: Sei un po' distratto, lo hanno già detto!
