The Wand
The Wand is Opera's password manager. Enable it to let Opera store user names and passwords the first time you enter them.
The next time you visit the Web site, you can log in simply by clicking the Wand button or the Fast Forward button on the address bar, or by pressing Ctrl+Enter.
Note that user names and passwords are encrypted on disk. If you want to protect your Wand by setting a master password, go to the Security preferences under "Advanced".
Wand passwords can be deleted from
on the menu.Personal information
Some sites require you to fill in personal information such as your name and address. Rather than typing the same information over and over, you can enter it once here.
After entering your personal information in the preferences, you can quickly fill in forms by selecting from a drop-down once you start typing into the field, or by right-clicking the field.
Right-clicking any input field, including chat sessions and e-mail messages, will produce a sub-menu called "Insert personal", where you can select information that you have stored in the preferences.
Tip: Use the "Other" fields for alternate addresses or other snippets of personal information you find yourself repeatedly typing into forms.
