        Content blocker is a Settings option, and enabled by default. At the right end of the address field is an icon that looks like a shield - clicking on this will give you the option to disable it on a given site.

        You never said what version of Opera you have, or of Windows for that matter.

          Because there is no such option in Opera's menu? Or are you talking about the ad-blocker, what also isn't in the menu?

          when I see demos of opera I see many options in the menu

          What demos? They are recent? They are about current versions of Opera?

            • The date the article was released is October 2017

            • The "block content" they are talking about is not there in my menu

              They are talking about Opera Presto, what are how Opera versions up to 12 are usually called to distinguish them from Opera Chromium (From version 15).

              Don't know why they wrote an article about an very old version of Opera without mentioning it.

                  You would need to create your own block list, in Easylist format, and use it.
