User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49.1 Build ID: 20171015235838 Steps to reproduce: Click on icon in location bar. Actual results: Nothing. I've got 20-30 websites that I access that way (through the dropdown list of sites) and they are not accessible now. Expected results: A dropdown menu of selected websites should be shown and be clickable to select.
Is the dropmarker shown and do you click on it? Bug 1331208 addressed that the dropmarker was not always shown. If the dropmarker is shown and clicking does not produce a result please try in safe mode and/or a new test profile. This works fine for me in 2.49.1 amd might be profile corruption or some non standard settings.
I reverted to 2.48 and found that the location bar shows the dropdown list of selected URLs I was looking for. The code change that made the list not available occurred in going from version 2.48 to 2.49.1. I didn't see 2.49 on the regular download page, or 2.48 either, but fortunately had a copy of 2.48 already stored. It would be nice if the older-version list really did include all releases, and maybe give ftp access.

Interesting to read the discussion of Bug 1331208. I used to try the nightlies, but don't presently have a realistic but throw-away userdata folder to try them on. Is there an alpha or beta that the bug should be fixed on? I'm running Mageia Linux 6 and it looks like I've got gtk3 v. 3.20.10.
The dropmarker is there and you can click on it. It is just only 1 pixel wide. The list should show if you click on the right thicker border. The fix is in 2.49.2. For linux you can try the latest tinderbox builds which are at 2.49.2 release level: https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/tinderbox-builds/comm-esr-linux64/1517083643/ https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/tinderbox-builds/comm-esr-linux/1517083643/ Please backup your profile in case something goes wrong. 2.49.2 should be released in about 2 weeks but as usual might be delayed if something comes up while building. I am marking it as a dupe of bug 1331208. If it turns out to be another problem please reopen.
