# [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Weird Opera Problem

 * I switched to W3TC a few weeks ago after using Super Cache for a long time before
   that. It took a while to sort everything out and everything worked fine in tests(
   various web browsers).
 * I recently however got a few emails from Opera users, e.g. Opera 10.10 or Opera
   10.50, who said that the website sometimes would display garbage instead of the
   contents.
 * I’m not sure why this is only caused sometimes and not all of the time and would
   like to ask if this issue can be resolved or if there is a way to block Opera
   from the plugin.
 * The website in question is [http://www.ghacks.net](http://www.ghacks.net) and
   I’m happy to provide any additional information that you might need to resolve
   the issue (like the htaccess file).
 * thanks in advance,
    Martin

 * The issue seems to only appear when the page is cached, when it is not cached(
   e.g. when I delete the cached pages) then it displays the website fine.

 * I seem to have fixed it by adding the Opera user agent to the agents that never
   get to see cached pages.

 * Try using gzip method only for page cache. WordPress doesn’t do a good job right
   now with deflate.
