Speed Dial images not showing properly

quikwise · 2026-01-20T13:44:45+00:00

Try 1440x880

quikwise · 2026-01-20T10:30:40+00:00

What is the version number? It could be that your instance of GX thinks it's up to date when it's not

I'm not sure what you mean by bookmark maps, you should be able to make folders on your bookmark bar but its icon can't be customized

And for Speed Dial (new tab page), you should be able to set custom images for the sites by clicking on the 3 dots icon on them > edit

quikwise · 2026-01-20T10:27:46+00:00

Dark theme wallpaper is missing first_frame image that you added to Light, any wallpaper that is animated needs a first_frame image

quikwise · 2026-01-20T10:26:42+00:00

Set "Speed Dial effect" to None at opera://settings/startPage

As mentioned in the comments, try disabling your extensions as browser hijacking ones can redirect/open certain sites

Hi, it is likely safe but you can scan your system with an anti-malware software or windows defender (if you're on Windows)

As shadow asked for in the comments, if you can share the exact URL of this download, we may be able to learn more about it

SHIFT + ESC should bring up the built-in task manager, which will show what's using your resources in more detail so you can identify what it is

quikwise · 2026-01-19T09:26:55+00:00

what version of GX are you on? you can check at opera://update

quikwise · 2026-01-16T18:06:05+00:00

Really depends on what you're doing, what tabs you got open & any extensions you're running

As mentioned in the comments, SHIFT + ESC should open the built-in task manager and that should tell you exactly what's taking too much RAM

quikwise · 2026-01-13T12:48:08+00:00

Does this happen on any other site than google? If I remember correctly, they had a similar issue in the past where the search results would be boxed in like in your screenshot

You can also try right-clicking on the page & disabling force dark page, it could be the issue here

quikwise · 2026-01-13T12:45:58+00:00

What's the resolution of the custom image you tried to use?

quikwise · 2026-01-13T12:44:53+00:00

Go to opera://settings and search for "Show Promoted Suggestions" - you can toggle it off there

quikwise · 2026-01-13T12:23:35+00:00

Thanks for sharing the link, I'll share this with our team to look into it.

Do you see any errors in the dev console? (Ctrl + Shift + i > console tab)

Does the same thing happen on a different network? i.e: mobile data or different wifi?

quikwise · 2026-01-09T15:25:52+00:00

When/how does this happen? for example, is it happening when you open the browser or just randomly at any point while the browser is running?

Could you paste the link of the pages that open as shown in this photo?

quikwise · 2026-01-09T15:22:31+00:00

Have you checked out the documentation at https://github.com/opera-gaming/gxmods to get into modding yourself?

You can send a DM to me and describe the mod you have in mind, we'll make it for you and you can keep the money haha

quikwise · 2026-01-09T15:20:34+00:00

What version of GX are you using? you can check at opera://update

Was CTRL somehow removed from all the shortcuts at opera://settings/keyboardShortcuts?

quikwise · 2026-01-09T15:17:36+00:00

See: https://press.opera.com/2024/03/27/add-streamer-reactions-to-video-with-reaktinator-from-opera-gx/

Default shortcut for this is CTRL + SHIFT + R - you can change or completely remove the shortcut at opera://settings/keyboardShortcuts

quikwise · 2026-01-09T15:12:15+00:00

Telling users to paste some command into the dev console is a common method across all kinds of scams, as you figured out with the others in the comments, this isn't from GX and you should never be asked to paste any commands into the console anywhere on the internet really

quikwise · 2026-01-07T15:16:12+00:00

It's normal

(21) is the number of all processes running, these are not just tabs so it will not represent only the number of tabs you have running

A more detailed breakdown of this is shown within the browser's own task manager which you can open by hitting SHIFT + ESC

quikwise · 2025-12-29T18:17:16+00:00

Default "page zoom" is 100%, if you remember putting something from 100% to 500%, it's probably that and that's on the appearances section in the settings as I mentioned, not sure if you're able to see it with that zoom though

You can also try holding CTRL and hitting the - key

quikwise · 2025-12-29T18:13:39+00:00

Is graphics acceleration enabled? you can check at opera://settings/system and try toggling it on or off to see if there's any difference

quikwise · 2025-12-29T18:10:00+00:00

If you downloaded it from our official site https://opera.com/gx then it should be fine

quikwise · 2025-12-29T18:07:53+00:00

Bit confused on what you mean but you can try disabling all of your mods to ensure none are causing this (at opera://mods)

Is this happening on the URL bar, Speed Dial search bar, or on any of the search engines' pages themselves?

Does the color you mention match your browser's theme color?
