Otter Browser Forum / Re: Customizable menu bar
Just like anything else that is customizable in Otter, the menus are now imported from a user-editable (JSON) file. By default the file doesn't exist and you must create it in the <otter profile>/config directory. So just save menuBar.json there, modify it and run Otter.

If you're looking for a GUI within Otter, there is none. And I doubt it's a high priority, but you'll have to ask Emdek to be sure.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Feature Requests

Quzilla and Midori use Qt WebKit and not Qt WebEngine.

I want a werbkit that was not based on Gooogle Chrome webkit Blink

I want nothing to do with blink.

1. Someday in the future, Qt WebEngine will be the default and Qt WebKit will be deprecated and then removed when WebEngine is mature enough. It's only a matter of time.
2. Changing the layout engine should not have any impact on the interface. Just because the management at Opera ASA decided to flush the "old Opera" interface down the toilet and ignore the needs of thousands of its power users, doesn't mean all browsers should have a Chrome-like interface, even if they are based on Blink.


Heck, maybe there'll be build flags, too.

Most probably:

I guess that QtWebEngine backend could be first thing using build options

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Adblock for Otter

Thanks, but I don't see anyway of adding Adblock. In Opera you would go to Extensions and add it that way.

AdBlock is implemented within Otter's codebase. What version of Otter are you using? In any newer version you should be able to use it through Tools > Content Blocking... by enabling some filter such as EasyList which contains everything except country-specific websites. Once you enable a list, Otter should download and activate it.

If this doesn't work as expected, then consider reporting it on GitHub.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: New versions
The notifications you are getting are most probably related to the release of weeklies. However many of these weeklies are part of 0.9.02 (second Beta) as the development of a Beta version is an ongoing process.

Also, there is an issue ticket on GitHub for the inclusion of date timestamps within Otter itself for identification purposes.
