https://goonline.bnpparibas.pl/#!/login browser not supported

[Breshnew]

Hi,
trying to log in to bank webpage:
https://goonline.bnpparibas.pl/#!/login

results in refusal, saying my browser is not supported. What's funny, there is Firefox among others listed as recommended !
Any suggestions?

Open about:config, create new String with the name general.useragent.override.bnpparibas.pl
Content is

Code: Select all

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:79.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/79.0

It worked for me, but I didn't try site-specific features like login.

Or install PermissionsPlus, then click on Tools->Page Info while you're on that site, click Permissions in the Page Info window, scroll down to 'Override User Agent' then enter the string above and click 'Save'. Use it for any other site that you want to override it for.

The first method with new entry in config does work, so I didn't have to try second one,

Many thanks !!

Extensions like PermissionPlus or Sasuga are simply nice UIs on top of the about:config method.
They are meant to avoid meeting with dragons (you did read the warning, didn't you?), meaning it's harder to accidentally break the browser.

It is really hard to accidentally break the browser with about:config if you only change things you know about.
It is a really bad idea to just change sth. you read about it should be changed in the web.

More so when those tweaks pertain to Firefox which is quite diverged from Pale Moon at this point. There's a whole cottage industry of user.js and userChrome.css tweaks for Firefox to fix privacy and UI related issues that don't exist in Pale Moon which for the latter, already continues to support full themes.

I'd rather use a GUI than deal with about:config, and I'm telling you as someone who configures his OS with Lisp.
But we're getting off-topic. The issue is "solved" so let's be done with this too.

Off-topic:
Every time I get a new version of Windows or any software, first thing I do is explore all the options/preferences. Easy to just take a look without changing anything when there is a GUI, and you get to learn what has changed/what all the software in question can do. Something sticks in your mind for later, so you can quickly go back when you need to change something.
