[edit] Welcome to the Dolphin3D Help Wiki

This Dolphin3D Help Wiki is intended to provide additional help for users who want to master the new Dolphin3D web browser. We envision this as a place where the Dolphin user community can contribute and create a well-organized, comprehensive online user manual for new and existing Dolphin3D users. To participate in a more free-form discussion about Dolphin's features and usability please use the Dolphin3D Community Forum.

Jungle-safe: Surf the web with no fear!  Learn everything you need to know about Dolphin3D's Jungle-safe browsing mode:  The Complete Dolphin3D Jungle-safe Browsing Tutorial.

Problems staying logged in to some website sessions?  If you have Dolphin's visual thumbnails or Hyperpeek link previews turned on you may notice that you can't stay logged into some website sessions that you initiated with a password. The reason this happens is that Dolphin's thumbnail-generating background process (a hidden browser instance) sends duplicate 'Jungle-safe' web page preview requests that confuse some websites by not asking for active content. For whatever reason, affected websites treat this condition as though you have logged out. To work with websites that suffer from this problem you can temporarily (or permanently) disable Dolphin's thumbnail generation by 1) right-clicking on the thumbnail history button and selecting "Turn off thumbnails for visited pages" and 2) turning off Hyperpeek previews if they're on (using the 'eyeball' button on the bottom control panel). When you're done with the affected website's session you can easily turn these features back on by following the same directions in reverse.

Quick-start Videos:  As promised, I'm posting our first two quick-start training videos below. I realize the production quality is not the best but I believe these videos will be very helpful to many new users since there are so many unique aspects to Dolphin's interface. (These videos are time-compressed to shorten your training time)

Quick-start Training Video #1 - "The Basics"



Quick-start Training Video #2 - "Favorite Buttons, QuickGroups, 3D Layers, and More"
