      Just trying out GX for the first time, I couldn't find any info on enabling Twtch in the sidebar. There's a Twitch setting in settings but it doesn't do anything. It turns on but then turns off as soon as settings is closed. I googled this but couldn't find any clear info, is there a particular extension I need to add to get this feature working ?

          @leocg Thanks, I tried that and it turns on but there's nothing in sidebar and when I go back to settings page it's disabled again. I copied my Opera Stable profile over to GX so that may have something to do with it, but I did try disabling all extensions and resetting to defaults and that didn't work. It's not hugely important, I was just curious. It would be a useful feature but if it's going to take a long time to trouboleshoot I'll just try and sort it out when I have more time.

            @duncanm Try with a new profile directory.

              @leocg That worked, so I guess the problem has to do with the profile I imported from Opera Stable. It's just unfortunate that to use that feature I'd have to re-do all my speed dials, add my extensions and so on, start with a completely new profile except for bookmarks. Maybe I'll do that when I have a little more free time. But thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

                @duncanm Most probably it has to do with the fact that such feature doesn't exist in Opera Stable.

                  @duncanm Copying the bookmarks/speed dials from Opera Stable to Opera GX should not be a problem.

                        So I just got a new computer and the twitch sidebar feature was very handy on my old one. Now I can't seem to find it anywhere in settings! I loved the feature and was wondering where it went. Is this just for me? did you remove the feature? idk but it'd be great to know

                          @minaxy Here I can still enable/disable twitch in the GX section of the settings page.
