All of screenshot addons have problems with this site

Unread post by VozFreeAccounts » 2022-05-17, 18:31

The site is Voz.vn Vietnamese's largest social network. The site has a news sub forum (F33) that has the tradition of deleting threads randomly. I wanted to save valuable threads before it got deleted. I tried two approach: screenshot to png and save as full html. My other thread deals with save as full html. This thread is about screenshots.

The site is full of annoying ads. Even though UbO Legacy installed and works well, both of Fireshot and SImple Screenshot leave a large empty space at the end of the site. You should try to take a screenshot with these addons yourselves and you will see which large empty space I'm mentioning. The problem is both Firefox's built-in screenshot tool and Chrome's GoFullPage extension has no such large empty space added at the end of the site in the screenshot image. It seems to be the Pale Moon addons' quirks or Pale Moon itself's quirks. Please help.

I'm sorry to hear that none of the add-ons are working properly with that site. You might have to use Firefox for the time being if you want to use a screenshot add-on with that site and not have that issue.

The add-ons are not officially supported by us, so you would really need to report these issues to whoever maintains the add-ons.

Does our forum notify the user when someone posted on his thread? I only see notifications about my threads being approved. It's hard to keep track if my threads being answered or not. I don't see the feature to check for New Posts I see on Xenforo forums either.

Well. I understand. To what I found is it put many ads in the end of the site. Other browsers fully load the site so UbO did it job to stripped down all ads so we see no ads nor empty space in the screenshot. I don't know if it's the case for Pale Moon or not. If the browser is not fully load the site until I scrolled to the end then it could be the problem.

Update: even if I scrolled to the end of the site and take screenshots, the resulted screenshots still have a large empty space at the end of them. Now I'm run out of ideas.

If the screenshot is otherwise fine, though, why not just remove the empty space at the end with an image-editing program?

It will need batch processing. I took many screenshots. Google suggests image magick but I think I'm not willing to deal with cli tools.

Try a plain ol', regular screenshot. On my laptop, which is a Windows one, this a simple {Fn} {PrntScrn} and then a paste into an image program. You should eventually get what you want (but sometimes you can't :eh: ), w/o relying on add ons although they sometimes make things easier.

You can try Pale Moon.

1. Press F12
2. To the right, press Toolbox Options
3. Bottom-left, enable "Take a screenshot of the entire page".

A screenshot button will appear (close to the Toolbox Options button). Press it, and a high quality screenshot will be saved to your default download location.

That probably means we should first register and interact with a Vietnamese social media website. I think it would be simpler if YOU provided a screenshot.

Yes, it does all of that. Be patient, you've only registered today.

Just tried 3 random threads and Fireshot saved the page without gaps or other problems. On the other hand I'm using eMatrix and didn't see any ads either...

At the bottom of the page there is a little button with a spanner. click that and the "subscribe topic" choice to get notifications of threads you've subscribed to.
In your user control panel you have further control whether you just want on-site notifications or if you also want e-mails for subscribed topics.

Of course, if you're using Pale Moon, you can also use the RSS feed option by clicking the orange feed icon in the address bar and picking the desired choice to make a live bookmark.

The page is long. Doing so only take screenshot of the visible area. I want full page (will resulted in a very long image).

Well, I don't know about Fireshot, but the camera tool in the F12 Developer Tools that someone mentioned above worked absolutely fine for me. I'm not seeing the added space at the end.

If that winds up solving your problem, perhaps that screenshot tool should be made more prominent since we do have it, rather than hidden away behind a pref in Developer Tools... because I just learned we had it today and I am one of the developers that actually uses the Developer Tools.

Writing an addon to leverage this feature? It's not wise to press F12 and go all of these steps again and again on any pages you wanted to save.

Did you actually try before posting? Because you certainly do NOT need to go through "all the steps again and again".

We offered you an instant solution for your screenshot problem. You are what, 24 hours on this forum and are flirting with disaster already with increasingly rude replies and aggressive behaviour.
