StumbleUpon is great for discovering websites, videos and photos, but they are not compatible with any other browser besides Firefox and Internet Explorer. Luckily for Opera users, there is a way to avail their offerings. Here’s how:
- Download StumbleUpon for Opera (mirror) and save it in the menu folder under profile. The path changes in accordance with the version of windows installed. Therefore, you may have to adjust the path; it may be e.g., “%appdata%\Opera\Opera\profile\menu” into a multiuser installation, or “%programfiles%\Opera\profile\menu” into a single user installation.
- In your browser, go to Tools, Preferences… (ctrl+F12)
- Select the Advanced tab, and then, Toolbars.
- Select StumbleUpon for Opera and click OK.
- You are done! A “StumbleUpon” menu will appear near Tools.
I’m not regular Opera user, so I’m not sure how painful it would be to install this toolbar, but it would have been pretty cool, if StumbleUpon could come up with an official toolbar which supports Opera and Safari.
Side note: Have you tried Toolbarless StumbleUpon bookmarklets?
