I do apologize if I posted it in the wrong area.
No need to. In the beginning nobody can know whether something is a K-Meleon, a site bug, a extension bug, ...(except with some FAQs e.g. New Yahoo Mail...
).
This Forum and posting here is AFAIK part of the bug reporting procedure/guideline.
Problems are either verified as bugs or not.
When others can reproduce the steps that results in evoking the problem it becomes a bug. The next stage is mentioned by SoerenB. When others have reproduced the problem as K-Meleon bug, the new bug is added to the bug tracker.
When others cannot reproduce the bug it stays here, yet another mystery and possible bug on one PC. The reproducing is needed to give the devs a chance to fix. They waunt even start to try to fix until it can be reproduced on several PCs.
When others know or find that it is a settings error of the user, a site or a extension specific issue it stops to be a possible K-Meleon bug. And consequently it
can be moved to General (support) or Extensions Forums respectively.
I am only a moderator, speak a foreign language and ask to make sure whether the topic is no bug.
p.s. SoerenB bin zu faul den Link mit der Bug-Report-Anleitung im Wiki zu suchen.
Denke aber das sie so etwa ist, wie ich geschrieben hab.
Wenn ich alle Nicht-Bugs weg bewege sind die wirklichen Bugs leichter zu finden. Daann kann der nächste, der einen seltenen Bug findet und reproduzieren kann, ihn finden & weiss, dass das schon mal war.
Wenn alles hier bleibt, ertrinkt Wichtiges, so wie es im General immer passiert.
