  Yeay thanks, it's good!
  
  Would be much more useful if it uses the appropriate language instead of English. I'm sure you will work on this.

  predictions - cool !
  
  Gmail doesn't load (will be fixed in the next snapshot)

  does not refresh every 10 seconds as it should.

• Mahesh Jagadeesan15. November 2010, 22:35

  Well, Gmail wasn't loading for me since the previous build

• Avola15. November 2010, 22:38

  Would be nice if we could get more than 3 suggestions at a time.

• rseiler15. November 2010, 23:03

  I could have sworn search suggestions happened a while ago--I've had them anyway. Inquiring minds....

• feld15. November 2010, 23:04

  No FreeBSD builds?

• Khaled Khalil15. November 2010, 23:09

  talking about google, I can't connect to gmail anymore, using the link:
  
  https://mail.google.com/mail/?nocheckbrowser
  
  the google labs mail in-box preview is shown, but loading doesn't finish.
  
  any suggestions?

  Sweet! Finally native google results!
  Can't wait for the Gmail fix, hope the next snapshot comes along quickly.

• David Bloom15. November 2010, 23:11

  one-line User JS to fix Gmail not loading (note that you must enable user js over https for this to work):
  
  delete Function.prototype.bind;

• Meison Epimeison15. November 2010, 23:13

  "Known issues

  But loads the 'basic html view'. Works for me in the meantime..

• hundredorzero15. November 2010, 23:21

  i don't see any change in Google predictions. i have been seeing google predictions before this snapshot. Although only 3 predictions were shown at a time.
  This snapshot too, shows only 3 predictions. So what have you changed anyway?

• shaneh15. November 2010, 23:25

  Gmail loads fine for me for this build (but perhaps it is due to some content blocking I have?)
  
  I think suggestions need to show when typing a search without the 'g'. The fact is, most people treat the address bar identical to the search field on google.com, and are more comfortable when it behaves the same.

• Christian Rivest15. November 2010, 23:32

  I cannot acces the extension page for now Opera load a blank page, can do it with Opera 11 b1060 no problem

• A. Silva15. November 2010, 23:33

  Somewhere around My O blogs or forums found this solution for Gmail, worked for me:
  
  

  // ==UserScript==
  // @name          hide faulty bind implementation
  // @include       *://mail.google.*
  // ==/UserScript==
  
  delete Function.prototype.bind;

• townsend15. November 2010, 23:36

  Bug:
  
  I'm not seeing any google search predictions. My keyword is g and the address is http://www.google.com/search?q=%s
  
  Also, the google instant and youtube search bars are also cut off/too large.

  Lastly, google page previews are not aligned correctly in opera.

• Obese Maurice15. November 2010, 23:38

  I have a question, how can I add new search engine to Opera, Wikipedia for example.
  
  I go to preferences/search/add and then I must type the address. Which one?

• Jarasmen15. November 2010, 23:44

  So. How can us people with custom Google searches (ex. I use Google SSL) add search suggestions, apart from the custom config-editing method that has already been known for a while? Can we go back to the default?

• Mark15. November 2010, 23:45

  Google search suggestions didn't work until I deleted my search.ini and let it create a new one.

  I dont see them either..... Only prevous searches....

• Remy15. November 2010, 23:50

  For all those people suggesting temporal Gmail workarounds: It's not the idea to provide workarounds when testing Alpha/Beta versions. That doesn't make any sense. If you unofficially start altering scripts or settings to get around a problem, these alteration may cause false positives in future snapshots.

• Little3D15. November 2010, 23:51

  No GMail Support.
  Just perfect.

• Hector Macias Ayala15. November 2010, 23:51

  Works awesome, waiting for HWA and M2 phase 2.

• Sid3215. November 2010, 23:52

  Using google.ca and don't see any suggestions either...

  Next feature = beta. So we should wait really long.

• Cristian Rodriguez15. November 2010, 23:56

  Nice!... Anyway there will be a new version 10.xx ?

• ouzowtf15. November 2010, 23:59

  Looks like you start getting some snapshots out with small wishes/fixes to fill the meantime while you are coding bigger things/fixing bigger bugs?!
  I think this would be a good idea in general.

  1. Go to the site where the search you want to do is located 2. Rightclick in the search field 3. Choose 'Create search' But please, ask such things in the forum next time. This is not the right place for that.

• Obese Maurice16. November 2010, 00:08

  I love you, ouzowtf.

• hundredorzero16. November 2010, 00:13

  many users are not seeing any search suggestions. On the other hand i have been seeing search suggestions in previous builds as well. for eg 10.63
  As far as i remember, google, wikipedia and bing suggestions were introduced in opera 9.x or 10.x
  So what's new at all?

• sleepyhead16. November 2010, 00:25

  maps.google.com isn't working for me on WinXP

• Cutting Spoon16. November 2010, 00:26

  Predictive search results were initially available from Wikipedia, Yandex, 1-or-2 other sites. Suggestions when using Google could be added by pasting a bit of javascript to the end of the search string.
  
  But now Opera is offering Google predictive search results officially. We'll see where this goes.
  
  BUG: Ctrl-Shift-V still opens pasted link in new tab. This is common to all windows snapshots of 11.00. (Tested on XP-SP3)

  NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! I still do much prefer having everything coming in English from google.com

  Wow...Thanks.

• André Kolb16. November 2010, 01:08

  thx =D

• Blagoj Radezov16. November 2010, 01:53

  who uses Gmail anyway? Yahoo is the best in this area, and I have a feeling that facebook will be either....

  That's possible, if you've edited the Google search entry. Opera updates generally only change the defaults, and don't change custom or customized searches.

  Originally posted by hundredorzero:

  Now Google search suggestions is available by default, using the officially sanctioned Google APIs etc, instead of by workarounds.

  We still now... should also be fixed soon.

• Jan Segre16. November 2010, 02:03

  maps.google.com isn't wokring here too, maybe is a problem similar to gmail's.
  does anybody knows if the maps.google.com thing is only with this build or too a google update that borke it on all opera builds?

  How do we ensure that the new default Search Engines doesn't get replaced during Sync? The same happened to the Bing engine and nobody provided a solution....

• Rafael Luik16. November 2010, 02:53

  @YongShun Only modified / deleted search engines are sync, if you haven't touched Google it'll be updated.
  The problem is if you edited Google one time, there's no turning back since Opera doesn't have a restore defaults button like Firefox have.
  
  I suffer with this situation because I deleted some search engines that I want back now but it doesn't matter if I reset search.ini they aways get sync and deleted again. :/
