Otter Browser Forum / IgnoreSslErrors
Hello.

I've been wondering what exactly is this string that Security/IgnoreSslErrors is being set to and what does it mean.

Otter Browser Forum / override.ini
Hello.

Is there any way to unify domains in the override.ini file?

Let's say a domain is accessible through domain.com, www.domain.com, test1.domain.com, test2.domain.com, etc. what exactly should I have in the override.ini file?

Otter seems to create a new entry for each of these.

Can wildcards (as in "*.domain.com") be used to unify all these entries?

Otter Browser Forum / Re: May I change otter-browser's cache files location to my ramdisk?
You've obviously never ran Otter from the command line. Well then, you're missing a lot ;)

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Beta 9 release (01-01-2016)
Maybe it's a problem between the website and WebKit. I'm using FreeBSD 10.1 and most images I found on the home page display fine. Only a few of them caused the problem you're describing.

Or maybe it's just a problem with the website. I tried it in Opera and the images that didn't work in Otter were shown, but with a weird background image with a "Clear" alttext.

Otter Browser Forum / MIME types
Can MIME types be set now in Preferences > Advanced > Downloads or has it not been fully implemented yet?

Every time I try magnet or x-scheme-handler/magnet it says Invalid MIME Type name.

I also added it with xdg-mime default <someapplication>.desktop x-scheme-handler/magnet and tried again in Otter to no avail.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: What I need.
Yes, I tried it on these forums and noticed that too. That's why I said I'm not sure they're working properly.
I've reported the issue here.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: What I need.
.../config/menu/webWidget.json:
Code: [Select]

            "type": "include",
            "includeIn": "link",
            "actions":
            [
[...]
		"OpenLinkInNewPrivateTab",
		"OpenLinkInNewPrivateTabBackground",
		"OpenLinkInNewPrivateWindow",
		"OpenLinkInNewPrivateWindowBackground",
[...]


But I'm not sure they are really working properly. I'll let Emdek provide a more authoritative answer.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: "ability to add custom toolbars", is there a howto somewhere?
"BookmarkBar" is just something I made up. Try it, it won't blow up in your face ;)

And I guess all toolbars, including custom ones, will have to be integrated into the View > Toolbars menu (to allow enabling/disabling) and be customizable through a GUI, just like in Opera. I doubt this is high on Michał's priority list though.

For now removing the location entry hides the toolbar, but you have to restart Otter for this to take effect.
EDIT: Hmm, actually "location": "none", does seem to be working...

Don't forget this is a very new feature that is being actively developed, with the most significant commits being no older than 10 days (March 12).

Otter Browser Forum / Re: "ability to add custom toolbars", is there a howto somewhere?
Checking the latest commits and source should give you an idea.

Let's say I have a bookmark for my webmail and 2 bookmark folders called "Forums" and "FreeBSD". I would have to add this custom toolbar to toolBars.json to create a bookmark bar:
Code: [Select]

[...]
	{
		"identifier": "BookmarkBar",
		"location": "right",
		"actions":
		[
			"bookmarks:/Yahoo! Mail",
			"bookmarks:/Forums",
			"bookmarks:/FreeBSD"
		]
	}
[...]


The bookmark bar with a bookmark and 2 folders should now be visible on the right.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Problem importing bookmarks.
Quote from: SurpriZe on

The problem I'm having right now is when I try to Import my opera bookmarks (either in .adr or .html format) I get the following error message: "Failed to open file for reading".

While the main developers will see your post, it's always better to head out to GitHub and open a new issue ticket.

Will there be an opera extensions support in the future (such as ExtendTube, etc.)?

Maybe along with Firefox and Chrome extensions?!

Have you tried downloading with different profiles?

You probably mean merely browser's user-data profile. If so, I use only default profile.

ersi is most likely referring to the --profile command line option, e.g.:
Code: [Select]
otter-browser --profile /tmp/otter/config


Quote from: Josh M on
I don't know where the profile is stored.

There's a .config (hidden) directory in your home directory.

Make bookmark sidebar significantly more shrinkable.
Peace.

Yes. I wish there was an about:config line which would state the number of px how shrinkable the panel is, and the user can overwrite it.

There was such an option. It was initially called Hotlist/Width and was later renamed to Sidebar/Width.
Emdek removed it on October 30 when he added a splitbar to resize the sidebar.
