  Ah ah, I don't know what you're talking about. Ah.

  Luckily i have used to make backups before using these builds.

• ncc504468. March 2011, 17:26

  haha Opera: 1, Password Manager Muncher-Monster: 0
  Excellent work so far

  If I'm right, the last snapshot caused password loss for some people, but now, that bug is defeated.

• Bardokas8. March 2011, 17:31

  Thanks all Opera team!

  Thanks.

• Алексей8. March 2011, 17:35

  great and now wait nice speed-dial )

• Z1-AV698. March 2011, 17:35

  The heroic developer shall be praised! The question remains: What loot did the "dreaded Password Manager Muncher-Monster" drop?

• James Cassell8. March 2011, 17:39

  Always good to see the data monster defeated. Glad to know our passwords are now safe.

• ouzowtf8. March 2011, 17:41

  Colored pills for free at Opera Software?
  
  

• tormento8. March 2011, 17:43

  I hope the "magic bar" has disappeared.

• Mike Manger8. March 2011, 17:44

  keep seeing this bar (is it the Intranet toolbar?) come up after changing settings in the Preferences (e.g. proxy settings, but it seems to be any) then clicking OK.
  
  Can replicate it by going to appearances shift+F12 -> toolbars -> Show hidden toolbars... -> click on the bar and select placement as bottom (or whatever - I don't remember setting this!) then clicking ok. Click on the close button then go to a settings page (ctrl+f12) change something and click ok again.
  
  Win7.
  
  p.s. Cheers for fixing the pw manger!

• Pastor David8. March 2011, 17:55

  AMAZINGLY, STILL cannot use the JCE Editor with ANY of the Opera 11.10 "Barracuda" builds. Using these builds, you cannot upload an image or edit HTML, as the pop-up in which to do so is blank.
  
  Google Chrome, Chromium, and the FF beta13 work, EVEN IE9RC works. But not Opera Barracuda.
  
  Can we get a fix for this please...

• Mike8. March 2011, 17:59

  But be aware! Even dead or not, these monsterous creatures can be revived from The Ring!

• Patrick O'Reilly8. March 2011, 18:04

  Huzzah! Now to slay those pesky plugin trolls!
  For a knight that lies with embeds gets bugs.

• Bill P8. March 2011, 18:06

  As one of those whose passwords continually disappeared I salute you

• raphweng138. March 2011, 18:07

  There is a very strange bug in this build that hasn't been there in the previous one:
  
  - All Speed Dial windows are set to reload "every second" (not my actual configuration)
  - Even if I change the setting manually to "15 minutes" or so, the problem returns after restarting.
  
  This is very annoying since it costs a lot of bandwith.
  
  Also,...
  
  - Mouse panning works, but stops after scrolling for a second or so when Speed Dial goes crazy
  
  Win 7 64bit - Can anyone confirm this?

• Алексей8. March 2011, 18:09

  
  Win 7 x86 SP1

• sleepyhead8. March 2011, 18:13

  thanks a lot!

  Confirmed.
  
  
  Happens to 4 of my 20 speed dials, problem reappears after restart.
  
  Win7x64
  
  Edit: Did'nt see the restart-part

• Dr0N8. March 2011, 18:32

  @raphweng13
  Have no problems with Speed Dial windows (all are set to Reload Every->Never)
  Maybe, because they all were set to Never.

• Kamalesh8. March 2011, 18:34

  Clearly an epic "password data" confrontation with the good guys winning this time.
  
  Speaking of which, there's another reputational battle going on at Apple's home page now. It's been tweaked so no links work in v11.01 or Barracuda. This is hurting downloads from the Mac App Store in the Comments section. Let's slay this one also, ASAP (with browser JS or a real fix).

  Confirmed (Win7 x64)
  
  edit: Only if you set custom refresh period on a speed dial item.

• bushtukker8. March 2011, 18:58

  Hyves.nl not properly working. Can't open the friends-online list which is pretty annoying.

• Tim Altman8. March 2011, 19:00

  I thought there were only four floors in Opera's HQ....

• Ja`Nusz Wu8. March 2011, 19:02

  This magic trick:

  don't work correctly in my 90% zoomed SD.

• ramainen8. March 2011, 19:22

  TinyMCE still not work.

• Guilherme8. March 2011, 19:22

  Yay! Thanks!

  confirmed, but only 3 of them on my speeddial! I deleted them and make new ones...that was a mistake, because it´s hard to put them back in the right position if you have 55 speeddial windows
  
  W7x64 SP1

  Everyone experiencing this 'til now is running on Win7x64, anyone running different OS able to confirm?

• dovelove8. March 2011, 19:35

  
  Thank God (or someone) I did NOT have password problems in last build.
  
  I haven't seen this problem? or feature discussed yet pertaining to PDF files.
  
  I have use browser back to view PDF's in Opera. I can see if Opera now is MEANT to NOT close PDF files when exited I could see that would be handy in some cases. TROUBLE is (I even rebooted) it doesn't ever release them or see that I still have these DUPLICATE open PDF files when I reload.

  after a restart this build don´t remeber the position of the speeddial items sorted for nothing!!!

• Charlie Clark8. March 2011, 19:44

  Hooray for the brave knights of Norway!
  
  Profile name still missing from the post - it helps to know this advance especially when preparing backups.
  
  Luckily, though I've had a few scares with the dailies I haven't lost any data.
  
  @Junyor - you're forgetting the third and half floor! ;-)

• 1st SEA8. March 2011, 19:46

  How about memory leak?
  When I leave opera running for few hours with few tabs opened, it eats up all available memory and freezes eventually.

• Kamalesh8. March 2011, 19:51

  Even though it was mentioned that HTML5 video was fixed a OSX couple builds ago, I can't get it to work after turning it ON at YouTube...seems to work at IA and Wikipedia, though. Hmm.
  (OSX build)

• Stanley8. March 2011, 19:52

  maybe next time you can put there in small letter what's going on..

  Only if they were set to reload in a certain interval. If set to none it seems to be respected.

• John A. Bilicki III8. March 2011, 20:03

  ...and there was much rejoicing.
  
  yay!

• No Fanboy8. March 2011, 20:16

  Seems that not all readers are aware of that very special day we have today in some European regions.
  
  But tomorrow everything will be over, for sure. At least until November 11, 2011, 11:11 CET.
  
  Congrats on defeating the monster.

• Viewy8. March 2011, 20:22

  XP SP3
  
  Some passwords cannot be deleted in the password manager. Others can be deleted, but require closing and reopening of the manager in order to update.
  
  Anyone confirm this behavior in this or the last snapshot?
  
  Edit:

  Confirmed with this snapshot.

  Opera crashed when i tried to delete passwords from manager in last build, I haven't try it with this snapshot

  I suspect you can't turn it on because of this.

  Not at all. It's certainly much more plausible that the Opera HQ has expanded vertically since my last visit.
