      Hi there!

      Could you develop a function to save the cookie settings to the Opera profile? When I brows many pages have cookie agreements. You select what kind of data you would like to share and you save that config by accepting it. This is all fine.

      These are stored now locally and if I have to reinstall my PC, I loose all these settings and I have to do it all over again for all the web pages. 😞

      What would be nice, if these configs (what options you selected in the cookie agreement) could be saved into the Opera profile and synced between devices.

      Is it technically possible?

      Thanks!
      IST

        @IST The cookies would probably be rejected by the sites anyway.

          Yes, it's possible for Opera to provide an option to sync cookie settings.

            For Europe cookie agreement there are external options.

            Extension and blocker lists.

            Ask if needed.

              When I check the sync settings, I see options to sync "only":
              Bookmarks
              History
              Settings
              Passwords
              Open Tabs

              I see no option to sync the cookie settings

              Could you advise me a few examples? I'm gonna check them out.

                @IST burnout426 didn't say that there's such option already. He was just saying that adding such option would be possible.
