Q: I have been told to look for a file in my profile directory. So where is
|
|
all my profile data stored?
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: Please select the menu entry Help -> Informations about application and then
|
|
scroll to the Paths section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Q: I have bookmarked a page, the star icon is shining, but I cannot see
|
|
the bookmark in the Menu or in the bookmark panel. Where do I find it?
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: When you add a bookmark from the star icon, it is automatically added
|
|
to unsorted bookmarks folder. You will find it only in the library (Ctrl+Shift+O).
|
|
You can move the bookmark to other folder in the star icon or in the library.
|

|
|
Q: I am getting a lot of SSL errors when visiting secured (https) pages.
|
|
Why does this happen?
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: Your system CA certificates list is probably too small or even missing.
|
|
You can check this in SSL Manager (Tools ->Preferences -> Privacy -> SSL Manager).
|
|
If this is your case, you have to download the ca-bundle.crt file from
|
|
https://github.com/nowrep/QupZilla/tree/master/other/ca-bundle.crt.
|
|
It contains certificates from Debian's ca-certificates package and I am
|
|
trying to update it as soon as it is updated in the Debian repository.
|
|
|
|
After downloading this file, you may put it into $yourprofile/certificates/
|
|
directory or in some other place. But then you have to add a new certificate
|
|
path in the SSL Manager (last tab - settings).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Q: I cannot save any bookmark and my history is empty. What should I do?
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: At first, please check that you have installed the Qt SQLite plugin.
|
|
On Debian, this package is called libqt4-sql-sqlite.
|
|
If you have it installed and you are still experiencing this issue,
|
|
please run QupZilla from a terminal window and have a look at the output.
|
|
If it contains something like
|
|
|
|
QSqlQuery::value: not positioned on a valid record
|
|
QSqlQuery::value: not positioned on a valid record
|
|
|
|
it seems that your profile database is broken. You can check it by some
|
|
SQLite database viewer. If the database is empty, then you can recover
|
|
it by copying
|
|
Windows: Program Files/QupZilla/data/profiles/default/browsedata.db
|
|
Unix: /usr/share/qupzilla/data/profiles/default/browsedata.db
|
|
into your profile directory.
|
|
If it doesn't help, please open an issue.

Q: QupZilla is using a lot % of my CPU. What can I do to cool it down?
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: Well, the problem with using excessive amount of processor time is very likely
|
|
caused by some flash content running in the browser (most likely bad coded
|
|
adverts). You have 3 options to solve this:
|
|
1) Completely disable Flash in preferences (Browsing -> Web Configuration ->
|
|
Enable Plugins (Flash plugin)
|
|
2) Use the Click2Flash plugin (Preferences -> Plugins -> WebKit plugins ->
|
|
Enable Click2Flash). You will now have to manually start every flash content
|
|
on a specific site.
|
|
3) Use AdBlock to filter adverts. Menu Tools -> AdBlock -> Enable AdBlock.
|
|
Before using AdBlock, you will have to update filters by clicking the
|
|
Update Filters button.

|
|
Q: When I add or edit my Search Engines and restart QupZilla, the changes won't stay.
|
|
What's wrong?
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: If you are using your own builds from git, you have probably an old version of
|
|
the profile database file. The easiest way to upgrade your database is to edit
|
|
the version file in your profile. Open it with some text editor and change
|
|
1.0.0-rc1 (or whatever you have in it) to 1.0.0 and restart QupZilla.
|
|
Your database should now be updated and changes won't be discarded on every
|
|
restart anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Q: I have heard that QupZilla supports importing bookmarks from other browsers, but
|
|
I can't find this feature anywhere.
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
A: This feature has been added in version 1.0.0-rc1. If you are using older version,
|
|
please upgrade it either by downloading installable packages from github or from
|
|
your distributions repository.
|
|
Then you will find the Import Bookmarks option in Menu File -> Import Bookmarks...
|
|
The importing wizard will then guide you through the importing process.
