Opera extension - persona.ini

I am downloading my first Opera extension. It is very simple. This is a toolbar button that launches a popup window. It works great in Opera mode. Opera does not allow me to download it successfully. He goes on to say that the persona.ini file is missing. In the meantime, I downloaded quite a few extensions that already live in the Opera extension directory to see their persona.ini files, and none of them even have a persona.ini file. I can only find one example of the persona.ini file online, and it does not have to be right, because it does not allow downloading.

Has anyone experienced this? Why is this happening?

Perhaps you will download the extension in the .zip format, which is not supported - only .crx and .nex..zip are supported only for Opera themes (hence the link to persona.ini).

So, to fix this, you can do the following: when in developer mode, use the "Package Extension" button to package and sign the extension. Then try downloading it again - everything should work fine.

I successfully downloaded the zip package in the Opera store.

I ran into the same problem ("persona.ini is skipped") when I try to download the zip package with the root folder - I mean the zip content: "Sources / content (for example, manifest.json). The Chrome store accepted this package, but for Opera, you can try to create a zip package with all the contents without a parent folder (the Sources folder in my case).
