    The popular VkOpt plugin is easy to download. Thanks to this, users of the social network Vkontakte can enjoy many additional features. The social network Vkontakte maintains its position, remaining the most popular resource of the Russian-speaking segment of the Internet. In addition to a convenient messenger, users of the “contact” have a lot of audio, video and images. For the convenience of managing your favorite content and personalizing the VK interface, many add-ons have been developed for Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera and other leading Internet browsers.

    Before installing any plug-in, you should clarify whether it is compatible with your favorite browser, as well as how its functionality meets your requirements. Typically, users are interested in how to download audio or video from the Vkontakte website to their device. For this purpose, you can install VkOpt - a convenient extension available for download for free.
      VKOpt will add additional buttons and functions to your page.

    For example, when you hover over the audio recording you are interested in, you can:

Music lovers can include scrobbling of the tracks they listen to in their own Last.fm profile and find out their music statistics, as well as mark audio recordings as favorites, which will also be reflected on the page.

    The latest design changes Vkontakte did not appeal to all fans of the social network. If you are one of them, you have an additional reason to download VkOpt: the fact is that with it you can return comments for photos, remove rounding of avatars and even change the inscription “VK” in the header of the site to the previous “VKontakte”. The appearance of the site will become much closer to the familiar version.

    VkOpt Extension Benefits

    The great advantage of the VkOpt extension is that it works correctly with any browsers such as Firefox, Chrome (some functions are not available in Chrome, but their number is minimal, see above) and many others. The installation will be identical without additional parameters, depending on whether you are downloading VkOpt for Mozilla or for browsers based on Chromium, so VkOpt is suitable for Yandex. The browser interacts with the extension without difficulty. The application installs very quickly. When using the VkOpt extension for Yandex Browser, there is no decrease in performance and the system is not overloaded, as is the case with additional applications.

    If you are not just ordinary users of the network, if you are actively involved in administration, then you probably caught yourself thinking that it would not hurt to improve or add something. For example, you want to have quick access to the statistics of an interesting group, or create a wiki page in two clicks, or even want to have a script for downloading VKontakte music ... If you have at least once had the same thoughts, then your "" must definitely appear VkOpt service!

    In this article we will analyze in detail what kind of script is in contact, how to install it and how to work with it. Be careful!

    Install Vkopt for free - step by step instructions

    Vkontakte Optimizer is a multi-functional script for VKontakte that supports all modern browsers. Initially, it was intended for downloading music and video. But over the years of its existence, it has acquired much more convenient functionality.

    The vkopt optimizer is very easy to download for free. The official site has all the latest versions. Follow the link to download vkopt:

    Choose a browser and install the application

    Vkopt for chrome or vkopt for Yandex are downloaded via adjacent buttons. If installed in Mozilla, immediately after you clicked the Install button, the following message may appear:

    Allow, pass browser protection

    We allow and agree to install this script to download VKontakte for your browser

    If you do not trust, do not try the application

    Then we restart the browser and upon entering the Vkontakte website we see a pop-up window:

    Do you need Russian?

    We select the language we need and refresh the page.

    Now all the functionality is available. On the left, a panel item is added through which you can open the advanced settings menu and enable the necessary functions.

    What can be done with Vkontakte Optimizer’s?

    A description of all the features of the script for VKontakte can be seen on the official website, on this page.

    Among them, emphasis is placed on such useful functions as:

    Showing an extended user menu, pop-up photos and user information, sorting the friends list by parameter.

    Mass removal of private messages, adding a “reply” button to messages in dialogs.

    Highlighting the details of topics and posts, the ability to respond in the comments to several people.

    Change the position of pop-up notifications, automatically expand news in groups, display in the list of groups a button to exit them.

    Display lists of new and deleted friends, "favorite" contacts.

    Huh! Here is such a variety of functions. I admit, I really love all sorts of amenities and VKopt gives a lot that is not in VK itself. I can’t even imagine how one could come up with such a thing.

    One thing is obvious - with the help of these "little things" you can make your stay on the social network Vkontakte much more convenient. Many actions can be accelerated to one or two clicks!

    However, all these improvements, by and large, are of interest to ordinary users, and for some reason the most “tasty” chips in the list of optimizations are not indicated.

    Vkontakte Optimizer’s administrative functionality

    Right after entering your community you will see new options.

    Such, if you go to any community:

    Optional two functions

    And such, if you go to your community:

    Three additional features

    What we have:

    1) the ability to update wall records without reloading the page completely;

    2) the ability to open an album with images from the wall;

    3) we can also open a list of community-related wiki pages;

    4) a button for quick access to statistics appears;

    5) and the most interesting - you can change the type of community.

    It is very attractive that a public page can be made a group. However, you need to weigh the pros and cons of such a change, because after changing the status of the page, existing subscribers will no longer receive updates in the news feed. In order for the community to work correctly, the participant must exit / unsubscribe and then click on the subscription again. Typically, if you ask users to complete this procedure, many simply unsubscribe without returning to the community. And most people can skip your request altogether.

    I was very pleased with the new features when working with wiki pages. Now, the creation of internal pages does not create any work! Click on the menu that has been added, and then on the “add” button.

    Add page

    We write the name for the page, then enter the necessary data. Please note that next to “return to the page” there is also the “add” item, which allows you to quickly go to the new page after finishing work with the current one.

    Fill the page with content

    We will return to the main page of the community, again look at the list of pages and see the update:

    Page added

    The optimizer also adds a few more useful functions, for example, community members can be viewed in the order of entry, and in the black list - to conduct a full amnesty and unban everyone.

    Want to unban everyone? You are welcome!

    And finally, it is possible to easily see statistics from other groups and publics! Under the community avatar, we see the [Statistics] button:

    Statistics button

    It appears in all groups, however, if access to statistics is closed, and is allowed only for administrators, the corresponding error window will pop up:

    Such a window appears if the statistics are closed!

    But if the statistics are open, then you will get into it in one click! By the way, if the admins of the advertising sites do not open statistics, then they have something to “hide”. Communities that make money from advertising usually keep statistics open.

    And another cool feature:

    Do you have a Like button?

    VKopt adds another button under the posts: "I do not like it" with a shard. She doesn’t have much weight, but when she appeared ... I admit, I was worried: “Well, that was still not enough!” I thought. The function appeared on April 1 and it turned out that it was an April Fools joke by application developers. Funny huh?

    It should be noted that VkOpt does not violate any rules of the VKontakte network - it only allows you to use some functions that were originally laid down in this social network, but for some reason were temporarily blocked, or allows you to use standard functions in the most optimal way, which sometimes leads to very impressive results.

    It should also be mentioned that due to the fact that the VKontakte social network is constantly being updated, the optimizer should be updated on time to the latest version, which includes support for new functions.
