 __TOC__
-== What is the new SeaMonkey official name?  ==
+== Where can I find more information about SeaMonkey? ==
-: The new name is SeaMonkey. Please consult the [[SeaMonkey:Name_And_Version|Branding Page]] for more information on this.
+:The [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Main_Page MozillaZine Knowledge Base] has lots of information about SeaMonkey. Most of the information there about the Mozilla Application Suite still applies to SeaMonkey.
-== What version numbers will be used for the new releases? ==
+== How do I get support for SeaMonkey? ==
-: The first version will be 1.0, following alpha and beta builds. This is in order to distinguish the difference between the officially supported Mozilla Application Suite 1.7.x and the new community-supported SeaMonkey Suite. This has been done for the benefit of our business users who will need to make an informed decision about upgrade paths.
+:Support is available from the [[SeaMonkey/FAQ|user FAQ]], the [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=40 MozillaZine SeaMonkey Support forum], the [news://news.aioe.org/alt.comp.software.seamonkey alt.comp.software.seamonkey newsgroup], and the [ircs://libera.chat/SeaMonkey #SeaMonkey IRC Channel].
-:Subsequent versions may have the corresponding Firefox version numbers. This would reduce the confusion among users and developers about which releases have which features, and may make some browser-sniffing web pages work better.
+== What can I do to help the project? ==
+:There's plenty of [[SeaMonkey:QA|quality assurance]] work to be done. Grab a [http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/?C=M;O=D nightly build] and join in!
-== When will a first build be released? ==
+<!--
-:The SeaMonkey 1.0 beta build was released December 19, 2005 (read the [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/news.html#2005-12-19 news article]). Download it from the [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/releases/ SeaMonkey Releases page]. The current plan is to release SeaMonkey 1.0 final after Firefox 1.5, probably in January 2006.
-:SeaMonkey 1.0 alpha was released September 15, 2005.
+These tips belong in the MozillaZine Knowledge Base (see the "Where can I find more information about SeaMonkey?" FAQ). Please move these tips there.
-== Where are the builds hosted? ==
+> So, please (someone) move it to
-:As the SeaMonkey Suite is a Mozilla Foundation ''project'', SeaMonkey builds and release notes are hosted on the [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/ SeaMonkey Project page] on mozilla.org.
+> Knowledge Base > SeaMonkey > Hints and tips > Miscellaneous Tweaks
+> (i cannot even create an account there)
-== What can I do while waiting for the first release? ==
+>> You should probably discuss your problem with creating a Knowledge Base account in the [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=11 MozillaZine Site Discussion forum]
-:There's plenty of [[SeaMonkey:QA|quality assurance]] work to be done. Grab a nightly build and join in!
-<!-- :[http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/artwork.html The SeaMonkey Council is requesting artwork submissions] for a new splash screen, icons, logo, and throbber. There's [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=287919 a thread on new artwork at MozillaZine]. -->
-== What are the differences between SeaMonkey 1.0, 1.1, and 1.5? ==
-:SeaMonkey 1.0 will be released off the 1.8.0 branch like Firefox 1.5.0.1. SeaMonkey 1.1 will be released off the 1.8 branch like Firefox 2. SeaMonkey 1.5 will be released off the 1.9 branch, which is expected to branch off the current 1.9 trunk in 2007. See [http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/roadmap/archives/2005_12.html the branching diagram] for a graphical depiction of the trunk and branches.
-== Where can I go for news about the SeaMonkey project? ==
+== SeaMonkey Tips ==
-:The [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/news.html Seamonkey Project News] page and the [http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/seamonkey/ SeaMonkey Blog] and [http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/seamonkey-qa/ SeaMonkey QA Blog] are good resources for the latest SeaMonkey news. You can also wade through the [http://www.hg23.at/~robert/thebot-logs/seamonkey-index.xml SeaMonkey IRC logs] for the latest goings-on.
+<strong>Q: How do I change the Shortcut for "Bookmark this page" into Ctrl-D (instead of Ctrl-Shift-D)?</strong>
+A: Use the following steps (does not apply to SeaMonkey 2.1):
+* rename /chrome/comm.jar to comm.zip and extract the file to some directory
+* in content/navigator/platformNavigationBindings.xul goto
+  <key id="addBookmarkKb"... and change modifiers="accel,shift" to modifiers="accel"
+* in content/navigator/navigatorOverlay.xul goto
+  <key id="addBookmarkAsKb"... and change modifiers="accel" to modifiers="accel,shift"
+* save all, and create the file comm.jar again (zip,store), restart seamonkey

+<strong>Q: How do I display icons in Bookmarks and the Personal Toolbar (like Firefox)?</strong>
+A: You need to make two changes within the "about:config" page. Use the following steps:
+* First, enter "about:config" in the URL address bar (then click the acknowledgement to continue)
+* Type "browser.chrome" in the filter bar
+* Change the default value of "browser.chrome.favicons" to "true" (by double clicking it)
+* Change the default value of "browser.chrome.load_toolbar_icons" to "2"
+(You may need to restart SeaMonkey.)
