[SOLVED] Transporting bookmarks

Unread post by 14themoon » 2015-05-08, 14:22

I am a newbie to Pale Moon. What I would like to know is how to transport my bookmarks from SeaMonkey to Pale Moon? There must be a simple way to do this but I've been unable to find it. Than you!

Simplest way is to to to the Library and export bookmarks as html. Then simply import them.

Thank you...how do you get to the library and then how do you transfer the bookmarks as html? Not sure where the library would be on my system. Thank you.

Go to your bookmarks manager (Try Organize Bookmarks) and it should have an export button or menu item (Maybe called import and backup). Will drop down and say Export bookmarks to HTML. Then repeat the process on Pale Moon but choosing Import bookmarks from html.

Excelsior! You are amazing, Matt! Thank you, thank you! As I said, I am new to Pale Moon but so far I'm impressed with it. It was one thing after another with Firefox and SeaMonkey isn't a whole lot better. Does Pale Moon automatically inform you when there are system updates?

It will notify you of Pale Moon updates and Add-on updates (Browser updates are by default.. Inform but not install until you decide but add-on updates are automatic.. This of course can be changed to your liking.

Note that on Linux you will not be notified of new versions. Keep an eye on the forum for announcements when new versions are released, or you can periodically use the "Update Pale Moon" option in the installer to check.
