hey jk,
kinda funny this is... Going on 2 mos ago, after a great yr & a half run, my mini6 abruptly quit opening, which led me to go w/mini next, which brought about this post link issue, as i came to forum seeking help w/the mini 6 prob. After tons of effort, both via net searching & major reading thru forum & mini forum & more tons of posts... your msg is the 1st mention and/or acknowledgement of having actually seen anything even remotely similar & to have a possib suggestion for dealing with!.....and so it "figures", ironically, that i can hardly make any sense of what you described...haha
"folding link list"..... umm, what is a "link list"?... & the only clue i have about "folding" is i think i saw it listed as an option in 4.4 pref's/settings? The short description left me scratching head somewhat, but it sounded something like ability to take certain listings or menus, etc, that maybe take up too much space (?) & to "fold" or "minimize" or "hide" that stuff & to be able to "unfold" or bring back up onto screen, that material...like sideways submenus(?)
i may be way off- - thats just my guess... but if on right track, i dont "get" how such lists would relate to my 'individual posts'- -linking issue. I wonder if what u mean is maybe u had some group/list of post links, to somehow deal with & u were using a browser version that had that "folding" option & u wanted to keep the list kind of "close to the vest" so to speak....uhh...sorta like ur own personal "sticky's"?....(am i even in the ballpark?).
In any event, u used the folding function & it somehow (not clear if in same manner as w/me..?) screwed up your post link location performance.
Also, u said the "folding" option was in opera:config, so do u mean in desktop opera?
I'm just trying to take what possible similarities in what u describe, and figure how in the heck i might possibly apply my situ to it. I dont hav desktop, not using any sort of "folding", no "lists" involved... so appreciative of ur reply but no idea how i might apply or if it relates to my issue closely enuff?
Never saw or had prob until i began to try to use the post links & the post link url's, copied & pasted, from opera forum, since using mini next. When i click post links they take me somewhere above or below the actual post sought. In the 'copy/paste/open' aspect, whether i did the copying, or someone else did, same problem when i click on, except i think that avg distance "offset" or "away" from the desired post, i8s even more exaggerated, like it might sometimes be a distance of 'from one end of a page to the other. Definitely not fully 'predictable' (as to where it may land) but is IS predictable in that the links never go correctly to the top of a desired, linked to post.
(i'm just describing all this in case anyone might understand the cause).
I assume that anyone else out there, who might open the links i might post, likely would not have any problem being taken to the right place (as opposed to the action for me), which if so, is not so bad a thing, as long as i KNOW thats what will occur. But what if they have same setup/same issue as me? And it still doesnt solve the issue for me opening links (posted by others) & being led to wrong spot.
The only solution i know of, is to use (myself & whoever else might need to) the posts' id #, in order to check for & locate the post w/correct #.
It aint that big of a deal but i would like to find cause & fix if possib.

I had some weird stuff once with mini that was resolved by not folding link lists (an option under opera:config).
No idea why it worked, but it fixed a problem with placing me several posts beyond the first new unread post.
