Sometimes users have 'mysterious' probs why some sites don't work right for them. In most cases this is just a settings prob.

For quicker checking, this macro shows the current setting of some prefs, the 'usual suspects' (useragent, cookies, referer, image switch etc.)
FOR INFORMATION ONLY, it does not change anything.

UPDATE V2: More checks
UPDATE V3: Copies text into clipboard
UPDATE V4: With KM-version
UPDATE V5: Peanuts
UPDATE V6: Begin of major rewrite, unfinished
UPDATE V7: Complete rework, much more info, report as page not as popup
UPDATE V8: Finds DEFAULT UserAgent too. Single prefs: check javascript on/off
UPDATE V9: Singles: +autofill, +Password Manager / Profile+ErrorConsole: more descriptions, user.js
UPDATE V10: Peanuts (+Hint to middle-click "about:" links. +Question for Linux)
UPDATE V11: Now normal left-click on "about:" links, except KM1.5.4
UPDATE V12: same for KM1.5.4
UPDATE V13: added 4 more prefs for plugins/video/youtube. Menu placement with vendorcheck.
UPDATE V14: report appears also in old brasil-fork and Freds KM1.6-F
UPDATE V15: added 2 more prefs, for Ajax and strict JS (empty sites)
UPDATE V16: added checks for KM74-Goanna, pref for gecko-compat etc.
UPDATE V17: added more prefs, and detects new KG76.1 version

UPDATE v17 (2019-01-15)
(todo: Screenshot still outdated from version-5, much different since, no popup anymore)



Menu: Help > Troubleshooting INFO
KM-Version: 1.5.4 or newer (today KM77-Goanna)

Installation:
copy the attached kmm-file into a macros folder and restart.
(Uninstall: Delete the file again, or disable it temporarily in F2>Macro Extension)

Thank you @siria, added and working well I guess.

And thanks to you, for the reminder about adblock!

UPDATED above to version-2, with this and also SSL/TLS and a few "more" pages

Great stuff as always, siria!

Thank you @siria again, added and working well too, I guess.
Edit: this should be added by default to KMmeleon 76RCpro portable.

Thanks guys
Uhm, just had the idea instead of making a screenshot for the forum it would be a lot easier for users if they could simply paste the result as text from the clipboard.
=> updated macro to version-3

Very useful the clipboard feature! Thanks @siria.

Interesting... so newer version have no vendor anymore.
And did you remove the empty lines inside yourself or is there a prob with double linebreaks now? When you paste it into a text editor are there no empty lines either?

PS: looks like a neverending macro again - next update in the works already, we sure could use the KM Version too, LOL!

KM76/Win7

Oops... oh great: of course, if the UA is NOT faked, there is none at all via pref! Sigh, another work to do...

I removed empty lines after paste from clipboard. :O

Ah okay, thanks.

UPDATE: version 4 above :cool:
Tested only in KM1.6, not sure if KM76 can also get the DEFAULT agent this way?

Great, it works! Thanks for testing!

Yogi, have borrowed your "modern" looking screen above (for now, until a version-5 may come)

REQUEST to DORIAN + RODOCOP
Please add K-Meleon VERSION info in the file platform.ini!

It would be so easy, and otherwise it's near impossible to recognize a beta, RC, stable, Pro or whatever version. We had this prob for so many years already. And the "about KM" page reveals the "sub-version" only in rare cases too. Don't know syntax, perhaps similar?

[Build]
BuildID=20160426174420
Milestone=38.8.0esrpre
SourceStamp=341679f40bcb

[K-Meleon]
KM_Milestone=76.0RC_PRO
KM_Date=20171112

PS rodocop: just saw in KM76pro most readme.html's even say 75.0.0

Well done, siria!

Will add platform.ini info and your macro (to Troubleshooting menu) to the upcoming release of KM 76 Pro!

Thank you

New version-5 see above :cool:
Changed text for cookieBehaviour, and if the TLS-pref is not present or false, the line is misleading and hidden, since "tls.max" is still active.

Thanks @siria, version 5 installed!

@Siria
What happened to your Vista?

In 2015 JamesD added $VERSION to KMeleonWiki (Macro Language 2), but reading "Lastversion" from "version.ini" in profile directory is compatible with older browsers.

Thanks yogi, have exchanged it above.

That's useless with such a common name (something like $KMversion would be a lot better), and IIRC it wasn't write-protected when I first tested it. No idea about latest KM versions, but doesn't matter because in old KM versions it would still be overwritten by careless var names in user macros.

Ah, good tip, didn't know! But upon checking my old versions, it doesn't help either, still too coarse. KM1.5.0beta has same number as KM1.5.4; all KM1.6 versions share a common number too but had lots of bugs in dev versions, and especially KM1.7alpha still has the same number as KM1.6! That rules it out completely, because 1.7alpha is one big mess especially for macros, especially needing injectJS.

(Vista still alive, but can't access it for awhile)

The KM-version info for 7X, based on the gecko in platform.ini should get more finetuning. So far have this, based on some old zips on my (full) disk:
##### 24.3=adodu 1.8 / 24.6=naruman beta4
##### ? 25.1=naruman "74d+1" "74b3"
$_g>="24" ? $_k="74.x" : 0;
##### 31.8=RC+stable
$_g>="31" ? $_k="75.0.x" : 0;
$_g>="31.8" ? $_k="75.1.x" : 0; # RC+stable
##### 38.2=76a+b1 38.3=beta2 38.5=beta3 38.8=RC+stable
$_g>="38.0" ? $_k="76 alpha" : 0;
$_g>="38.2" ? $_k="76 alpha/beta1" : 0;
$_g>="38.3" ? $_k="76 beta2" : 0;
$_g>="38.5" ? $_k="76 beta3" : 0;
$_g>="38.8" ? $_k="76RC or stable" : 0;
$_g>="45" ? $_k="77.x" : 0;

Can dig more in backups or new downloads, but if anyone has more versions handy and a faster computer and enough time, it would help to finetune more, especially the non-stable versions :cool:

Perhaps I should post also the next contained lines :cool:
$_g>="45" ? $_k="77.x" : 0;
$_g>="52" ? $_k="78.x" : 0;
$_g>="59" ? $_k="79.x" : 0;
$_g>="66" ? $_k="80.x" : 0;

Hey, just preparing for the future Frankly not much hope to ever get that far, but a few lines more in this macro don't do any harm. The prob is that KM's engine is dragging behind, and gecko59 comes already next March!

@siria Nice idea! Luck should be at our side! :cool:

The executable sets "LastVersion" on start.

17104933 == 0x1050025 == 1.5.025 == K-Meleon 1.5.4
33751044 == 0x2030004 == 2.3.004 == K-Meleon 76b3u1, 76b3u2
33751045 == 0x2030005 == 2.3.005 == K-Meleon 76RCu1
33751046 == 0x2030006 == 2.3.006 == K-Meleon 76RCu2
33751047 == 0x2030007 == 2.3.007 == K-Meleon 76RC2

Cool... do I understand this right, KM7X puts it also in a version.ini in the profile, just like KM1.x? Same number as in $VERSION, but reliable?

@siria
Yes. It has to compare current version with LastVersion to update old profiles as needed and updates that number if different.

Great, thanks! You don't happen to know of a list somewhere...? :cool:
Starting with 7X is enough.

No, go ahead and write the macro. Display LastVersion if not listed.

1. Extract a portable package from local archive and start it.
2. Copy package name.
3. Copy LastVersion.
4. Convert LastVersion DEC to HEX.

Users can provide package names with LastVersion.
