There’s no Plug-ins setting in Website options. Opera 50.0
I have flash player installed on my pc, so not wanting to install a second copy on my pc.
Using Settings–> Websites –> Flash–> Manage exceptions is not working.

Have you figured out a solution for this yet? I’m having the same issue.

The instructions for Opera are no longer available after last update re: plug-ins section…. Really need Flash on some websites & hate to go back to Chrome just for that..

There isn’t an option to “allow sites to run flash” in Chrome settings, only “ask first (recommended). If you turn it off it blocks from all sites. No other option.

Don’t know what Opera browser you are using but version 47.0.2631.80 (PGO) does not have anything about plug-ins under settings/websites. Enable Opera Turbo is unchecked/allow Flash is enabled but I still get you need to enable Flash on video.
