      I just got Opera 22.0 and I can't seem to find where the edit site preferences is. It won't show up on the right click anymore and I can't mask my browser as IE or Firefox on web pages that don't support Opera. Am I missing something? Did they move it somewhere else and I'm just clueless?

        Within the native browser, you can't do what you want.

        However you can mask your browser as you did before with the Opera extension, User-Agent Switcher, which I have used.

        https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/user-agent-switcher/

        And here's an Opera extension called, "Site Specific Preferences,

        https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/site-specific-preferences/?display=en-US

        I haven't tried it, so don't know what it covers.

        Also, the Opera extension, Stylish, let's you install themes and skins for different sites.

        https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/stylish/?display=en

        Of course AdBlock Plus is a per site Ad Blocker, https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/opera-adblock/?display=ar

        As is the AdBlock and Disconnect Extensions. And there's quite a bit more.

            No problem, ashuriena,

            Here's another one. It's called Extension Automation, and let's you decide whether to use certain extensions, based on websites you visit.

            https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/extension-automation/ghopjgdkodchjclkkfdekhjfomdbakkb?utm_source=chrome-ntp-icon

            With the extension installed, you can set up extensions to only run on specific sites by adding them to a list. This keeps the extensions from slowing down Chrome and clogging up your toolbar. It's also handy if you have a couple extensions you love to use but they cause problems on certain sites.

            Now I haven't used this, so it's just if you're interested, to explore. Only try if it looks useful to you. You can always uninstall an extension, if you change your mind about it.

            To download a Chrome Extension, you do need the Opera Extension, Download Chrome extension

            https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/download-chrome-extension-9/?display=en

            Or Extension Source Viewer

            https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/extension-source-viewer?display=en

                  lem729,

                  Most of what you write is way over my head. I have a simple question for you that may be related to the initial question on this thread.

                  I just loaded Opera for the first time, and I did it so that I can play Tribal Wars, where it is the recommended browser.

                  I can't find the Toolbars, which are necessary for some of the stuff I do in TW.

                  Guidance from Opera says that I should go to Settings, Preferences, Advanced, Toolbars.

                  The problem is that path does not exist in my version.

                  Can this be fixed by using one of the addons listed above?

                    I think you'll find that only applies to the original Presto Opera, not the current new versions.
                    Try using Opera 12.17 which you can find here -

                    🙂

                      The Opera 23 browser is like the Opera 21 browser for purposes of playing the game. So it sounds like the thing to do is download Opera 12.17.
