New Google Reader display problems, impossible to use

Hi. The new Google reader does not work in Opera, many feeds titles do not display.

It looks to be related to the scrollbar.
I have no solution.

Workaround (without userstyle/css to fix it): enable Fit to Width

#nav {

The above in a style sheet fixed it for me.

Solved my Google reader problems by simply changing the site preference /network "identify as Firefox". Reader now works flawlessly, just as it does in FF.

Based on the fact that 11.52 works perfectly fine for me I recommend a complete uninstall clearing out application data and program folders of opera and a reinstall.

No question of. Opera needs to fix it.

...

What he's saying is that Opera doesn't really need to fix the problem as there are several people here saying they don't have it, so it must be caused by some configuration problems. If you do a clean install then the configuration problems should be solved and it should work. If it still doesn't then there might be something for Opera to fix.

Anyway, I haven't experienced any problems in Opera 12.

Just installed 11.52 on a formatted system.

Google reader. No problems.

At this point, I need to see a screenshot. I don't think that you are going to get any resolution to `your` problem

What for? If you can´t understand the phrase "it does not show many feeds titles" I doubt you can give any solution to this "common"a problem.
Please don´t make us waste our time. Thanks.

And there are several people here saying they have it. I never did a clean install of IE, Firefox or Chrome. If there was bug, they fixed it in a next release.

The first subscription looks blank, but contains 176 messages (see on right side).

The exactly same situation after clean installation (deleted all opera folders in "Program Filex x86" and "AppData") 11.60 - some folder/feed names are not visible.


Had the same in 11.52.

Use the CSS posted by WTD, it works

#nav {
width:281px!important;
}


Google and Facebook do not work well in Opera and it does not seem to get better.
People who recommend clean installations as solution to the many bugs in Opera remind me of PC service people that recommend to format and clean install Windows instead of fixing the problem.

I had this problem. I renamed and shortened the name of the entries and that seemed to take care of it.

If users have to do same operations before using popular services, Opera Software is doing something very wrong

There isn't about it in changelog, but Opera Team fixed Google Reader problems in 12.10 beta Build 1624.

You don't need user script since that build (and i hope since 12.10 stable when it'll be released)!
