Is it possible to specify a different user agent as a startup option for

For example, a particular website will only allow a logon if I spoof FF 
or Chrome.  I do this by using the user agent switcher in my prefbar. So 
I would like the Shortcut Target to be something like:


"C:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe" -useragent FF 
"https://www.website.com/login.aspx#";


If not possible using prefbar agent switcher, is there another way?

Mark, as an alternative to David's suggestion, in your normal Profile, 
you could set up a User Agent override preference specifically for your 
troublesome site.


1. Back-up your Profile.
2. In SeaMonkey, enter 'about:config' (without the inverted commas) 
in the Browser address bar.

3. Accept the warning
4. Right Click on a clear area of the screen
5. Call the preference 'general.useragent.website.com', or whatever 
the real website is.

6. Then enter a value, say Firefox 66.0
7. Close SeaMonkey entirely

When you reboot SeaMonkey and go to your troublesome website, SeaMonkey 
will present the specific UA to that site. Any normal site will still 
see the usual UA.


HTH.

Get around this problem by creating a second, special profile where the
spoofing is automatic by setting the preference to "Advertise Firefox
compatibility".  Switch to that profile for the Web site that needs
Firefox, and the switch back to your usual profile.

There is.

Instead of using Prefbar, create a new key in about:config as follows:

Name: general.useragent.override.dumbsite.com
Type: string
Value: whatever UA you want to feed to dumbsite.com

Of course, you'll replace "dumbsite.com" with the appropriate site name.

Then your shortcut only needs to specify the target URL, because SM 
automatically lies to dumbsite.com without being told.


Downside: at some future date, you will have to remember to update or 
remove the new configuration key due to software changes.

Back up your profile.

2.33 to 2.49.5 should be no problem but probably best going via 2.40 because 
the permissions api changed in 2.39. Just start 2.40 once. Then install 
2.49.5. If you are on Windows and want to use the x64 deinstall 2.40 first and 
install 2.49.5 x64. 2.49.5 to 2.53.1 should go smooth then too.

We have been advised that, if you are trying to install the x64 version
of 2.49.5, you must first remove the x32 version (only version) of 2.49.4.


Now that you have tried installing 2.49.5 x64, you must first uninstall
it before installing 2.49.5 x32.

Since something has to be uninstalled, I would uninstall BOTH 2.49.4 x32
and 2.49.5 x64.  Then reinstall 2.49.5 x64, which will use you old
profile.  If things are strange, however, restore your profile from the
saved version.  I installed 2.49.5 x64 and did not have to do anything
with my profile from 2.49.4 x32.

In addition, updating Seamonkey does not currently work - you have to

Try using ClipGrab from .  No, this is NOT an

NOTE WELL:  Download ClipGrab and then disable your Internet connection

wg9s) De SeaMonkey 2.53.2 beta 1


I also installed this version of Seamonkey, however, I have Windows 10 
Home 64 bit - nothing has changed, the problem is still playing.



please
a) Contribute link for an RSS feed showing that problem


There are a lot of such tapes, almost all of which I have subscribed to, 
they are from different sites, I think that it’s not about the tapes. I 
wouldn’t want to clutter the newsletter with them, but if there’s no 
way, I’ll send a few links in the next letter.b) try Safe Mode with 
inactive Add-ons


Thank you, I launched it without add-ons, but it did not help, updates 
to the feeds are still disabled.



c) Try an RSS Feed showing the problems in a newly created User Profile


Thanks! I created a new profile, subscribed to the tapes in it, but 
their update is still disabled, i.e. even a new profile does not solve 
the problem, unfortunately. Is there anything else you can do, or can 
you still do without the help of developers?
I also want to note that the feature for customizing news feeds has been 
added to the Seamonkey beta from Thunderbird 60, as developers write in 
the documentation for Seamonkey. So in Thunderbird I have a similar 
problem - news feed updates are constantly being disabled. I found an 
email address on their website, wrote there, but did not receive an 
answer. It seems that I’m fighting in a blank wall ...

Thank you for your answers and help.
Regards and best wishes Anastasia, Kiev, Ukraine.

For bookmarks, have you considered adding comments instead of
color-coding?  A comment can be something simple such as #, $, %, *, A,
x, etc, to flag the bookmark.

To add a comment:

1.  On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks].

2.  On the Bookmarks Manager window, select any single bookmark and then
select the More button near the bottomm-left of the right-hand pane.

3.  Now select any single bookmark that you wish to highlight.  In the
Description area, type a character.

NOTE:  The Description area appears only when a single bookmark is
selected.  Whatever you enter will appear below the bookmark.

Alternatively, you can append -- with leading spaces -- flagging
characters at the end of the names of bookmarks.  In this case, what you
enter will appear on the same line as the bookmark.

Whichever way you do this, the characters you enter will appear whenever
you export your bookmarks to an HTML file.  I export my bookmarks every
time I terminate SeaMonkey.  In my profile, I inserted the following
into file user.js:
user_pref("browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML", true);
// automatically export bookmarks into an HTML file
The semi-colon (;) at the end of the first line is mandatory.  The
second line is merely a comment -- indicated by the double virgules (//)
at the beginning -- to remind me why I have this.

I do use the description area for passwords. It's a great way to keep 
track of passwords for each site. I also export my bookmarks to an html 
file upon closing SM. I would just like some in red to designate 
important ones. Copying them from html to Word seems to be one good way 
to do it.

As for your passwords, there is no equivalent.  I would question
printing out your passwords from SeaMonkey unless you are going to
deposit the printout in a safe deposit box at a bank.

On the other hand, if you have passwords for sites where you do not have
critical data (e.g., not  personal or financial), you might try
something similar to what I do.  When I set such a password, I first
enter it into a text file before entering it into SeaMonkey.  My text
file does not allow colors, but you could use a Word file that allows
the use of colors.  Just remember that this is not appropriate for
passwords you want to keep secure.

I have three lists of passwords on my PC:

*  One is plain text for passwords for sites where logging-on merely
brings up the settings I want to use.  These generally are for
site-specific forums.   I do not care if someone discovers these
passwords.

*  The second is also plain text but saved with strong encryption.  This
too is for sites where logging-on merely brings up the settings I want
but could be subject to serious malicious actions by others.  These are
generally for sites where I make purchases.

*  The third is a spread sheet that is also saved with strong
encryption.  This is for financial services, modem, router, utilities,
Medicare, Social Security, ISPs, etc, sites where I could lose
significant funds or suffer identity theft.  I change these passwords at
last annually, and no two sites have the same passwords.

NOTE:  All three lists contain passwords that are NOT dictionary words.
They are random strings of letters, numbers, and symbols.  I do not need
dictionary words if I have these lists.

Actually I do put a copy with the bank. I'm not clear on how you enter 
your text files into SM?

Export your bookmarks into bookmark.html then modify this web page ...
It's a one-way action  colors will not be present if you import 
your modified html file.


AnyWay, what part of bookmarks did you want to have a red-color 
attribute ?


When I print the whole list, I'd like some bookmark titles and extra 
info about them to be in red.


Perhaps copy/paste the html file into WORD then select text and modify 
the foreground color ?


I see that does work, but I have 99 pages of BM's. I only need a fairly 
small number to be in red, so I'll have to play with this a bit. Thanks.

Only if it is just to be printed. You won't be able to re-import the file
into the browser as Word will add so much word-processing code to the file
it will be rendered useless for the browser.

YES - Just What Thomas siad: to appear and be PRINTED in red.
