Customizable menu bar 2014-10-23, 14:03:12 "Customizable menu bar arrives:" is listed under Weekly report #38 (22-09-2014), however I have been unable to find any menu customisation options in otter-browser-weekly38 or any subsequent builds.Can anyone advise how to access this functionality?
Re: Customizable menu bar Reply #1 – 2014-10-23, 15:51:27 Doesn't it mean customisable menu bar rather than customisable menus? And no, I don't know how to customise the menu bar either.
Re: Customizable menu bar Reply #2 – 2014-10-23, 16:01:34 There's a JSON file, but I haven't played with it yet. Nor do I know how to customize it from your user profile rather than having it overwritten by every update.
Re: Customizable menu bar Reply #3 – 2014-10-23, 18:06:33 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.

So, these can be moved to the profile directory. Is the profile under Linux .config/otter/ or .config/otter/profiles/<profile-name> ? No matter. I will try to find time to figure this out on my own and perhaps add something to tips and tricks.
