MyOpera on Opera Mini tests

Are links on forums underlined or indicated with any color?

Get Opera

EDIT: Looks alright up But on some blog and album comments the styles are not okay sad

Custom stylesheet, perhaps?

Yes that is a solution but also a problem. I can make sure the text links are easy to spot on my own blog but I can't know if other peeps have done so on their blogs awww I suppose the best way then is to use URL address instead of linked text.

Does Mini have the same link options as other versions?

I generally set Opera to strike through visited links, as most people don't seem to have masked that style.

Do you mean: "Are the same custom CSS definitions applied on Opera Mini?"

In that case yes for almost everything else but some font size and styles. In other words, I can use custom CSS to give visitors fonts with underline, strike through, different colors, bold etc.

The main problem is that many ready made MyOpera designs make the links look just the same as other text on Opera Mini. And that's especially on blog/album comments. So, if I wish to share a text link on comment, others don't necessarily even notice there is a link unless they accidentally hover the link with cursor.

The reason I opened this test thread is that I here test how links look on blogs where I'm the moderator, to test the custom CSS really works as I want.

In Opera for desktop or even Opera Mobile I can go to opera:config and change the link style - so that in my case all visited links use strikethrough ... I was wondering if Mini had a feature similar to opera:config ...

On Opera Mini you have so called 'Power user settings' instead, and address for that is config:. And there's no option to change layout of links.
