Favicons in bookmarks it's implemented in next version 1.5, not implemented in current 1.1.4 version, but you can tried a beta of next version 1.5 here.

You can download 1.5a2 beta version and copy from kplugins folder bookmarks plugin file (bookmarks.dll) to your current K-Meleon 1.1.4 version (overwrite it).

Yes, but remember next; (both in K-Meleon folder)

1) In beta versions and 7z files you need include libraries msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll from your official 1.1.4 version or download it from http://www.dll-files.com/

2) In beta versions it's recomended created a new profile, to do this create a file named profile.ini, more info about this.

1.1.4 profile isn't compatible with 1.5 profile.

Thank you

As it is complicated, would it not be possible to obtain this bookmarks.dll ?

Download 1.5a2 version, this is a .7z file, 7zip file, unzip bookmarks.dll or all files, and copy bookmarks.dll overwriting your bookmarks.dll in your 1.1.4 /kplugins folder.

I'm so sorry,I don't succeed in unzipping this *.7z

I have Winzip 8.0, it doesn't recoginze the file.

Thank you !

PS Why this installation file is not an .exe as usual ?

7z files have a better compression rate than
ordinary yip files.
You can download the free packer/unpacker from

http://www.7-zip.org

After installing 7-zip, use 7zFM.exe to get the
graphical program surface to open.
Go then in this file-manager to the downloaded
K-Meleon 7z file, highlight it and press the
"Extract" button.

Good morning

Thanks for 7-zip program

Unfortunately K-meleon does'nt run with the new bookmarks.dll

I tried it and it failed.

It doesn't matter and I'll wait the official new 1.5 version.

Thank you for help.

Bonne journée !

From the messages in this forum, I deduce this is about being able to change the default favicons to icons the user prefers. If so, has this project been completed?

I do not see any context menu when I right click on my favorites. No option to sort by name, change properties, etc.

I really like the ability to change the favicons in the other browsers I use. How does one do so with K-meleon?

Will right click funtionality ever be available?

Thanks!
