Saving SeaMonkey settings

When I change the view in Seamonkey to 120 or 150%, is there a way to
save it so I don't have to reset it everytime I open the browser?
Thanks.

On MandrivaLinux for sure and Win7 I think.

Certainly with SM 2.0.5 (updated, several times, from SM 2.0.0
originally) and also with SM 2.1a2, the first time I click the browser
icon down in the bottom left of screen, I get directed to the
SeaMonkey-Project home page, rather than the group of web pages that I
actually have set as my Home page.

If I then close this browser and then, again, click the browser icon, it
opens my correct home page group.

Is any one else seeing this behavior??

Daniel


This is very, very old behavior.  It might even date back to Netscape 4.
After installing, the first time you launch the browser for a
particular profile, you get the project's home page.  With multiple
profiles, this will happen for each of them.  Just go to your menu bar
and select [GoHome].



Sorry, David, are you suggesting that this happens the very first time
you open the browser it goes to the SeaMonkey-Project and then when you
next open the browser, minutes, days, months later it will operate
correctly??

Or are you suggesting it will happen each and every first time I open
the browser and I/we should accept it??

Daniel


The former.  This happens only once for each profile, the first time the
browser is launched after an installation or update.  If you terminate
the browser completely and then relaunch, it will not happen again until
you reinstall or update it.



This was not my position, David, as it was happening every time I
started the Browser. Didn't tonighteither because it knows I'm
watching OR because overnight  I installed the new SM 2.1a2 release.

We will wait and see!!

Daniel


If you are automatically accepting and installing new releases, you will
get the SeaMonkey-Project home page after each new release, which can
happen often with alpha releases.  If you are automatically accepting
and installing nightly releases, this could happen every day.



To the best of my knowledge, David, I was using 2.0.5, not nightlies, 
until I installed 2.1a2 recently.


Seems that 2.1 has fixed the problem, hopefully it will stay when the 
final is released.

disabling browser plugins

2010-07-02 Thread Lee
Is there a way to permanently disable plugins?

I don't want the adobe reader plugin and this bit in my user.js used
to accomplish that:
  user_pref(plugin.scan.Acrobat, 99.9);

Adobe came out with a new version of reader  after installing the new
version, about:plugins says I've got the Adobe Acrobat plugin
installed again :(

How do I tell SeaMonkey that I don't want it using the acrobat plugin
regardless?

I know about the menu bar Tools / Add-on Manager / Plugins  click
'disable' for Adobe Acrobat, but the next time I upgrade reader the
plugin is back.  What I'm looking for is a way to permanently disable
the plugin .. even after installing a new version of reader.

Thanks,
Lee

Yes! Yes! Yes! Of all the extensions I have installed NoSquint and the 
two extensions to replace Forms Manager. are my most important I could 
not live without.

Assuming that this is specifically related to acrobat go to 
about:config then filter for acrobat and set plugin.scan.Acrobat to 
false


Not sure if it's still necessary, but it also used to be required to 
find _every_ instance of the acrobat plugin (acrobat does not remove old 
acrobat versions when you install updates) and rename every plugin.

Unfortunately, no.

With SeaMonkey 1.x, many extensions had options to install globally in
the SeaMonkey directory.  With SeaMonkey 2.x, there is a complicated way
to still install globally but that will soon be disabled.  Using the
Add-Ons Manager, all extensions must now be installed in each profile,
one profile at a time.

This is an Adobe issue, not a SeaMonkey issue.

In Adobe Reader, go to the menu bar and select [Edit  Preferences].
Under Categories on the Preferences window, select Internet.  Clear all
checkboxes under Web Browser Options.

Instead of going to addons and looking for NoSquint then allowing install

go to site above and right click and hold mouse should be a window pop 
up asking whether you want to save. save the xpi file. Then as you go 
from one profile  to the other go to addons


http://screencast.com/t/MWJhMDRiMD click install locate the xpi file for 
no squint. Once its found the first time, should just be able to click 
install and it will find it.

Thanks, I found the file, but had to right click and save link target
as in order to dowload it, as double clicking on the link at the page
does nothing. 

So I have the file sitting in my folder. Now what do I do with it? I
saw a mention below about Add-Ons but can't find it in SeaMonkey. How
do I install this NoSquint? I'm obviously not a power user and only
download plugins when prompted because I can't do anything at a

On the SeaMonkey menu bar, go to [Tools  Add-on Manager].  At the top
of the Add-ons window, select the Extensions button.  At the bottom of
the Extensions pane, select the Install button.  Etc, etc.
