Settings
Click this button to display a panel that allows you to add, delete, and rename the saved settings files that are listed in the Settings menu.
To add a settings file, click the button. This will save the current settings of the active document in a settings file and add its name to the list in the window. If no document is open, the user defaults are saved.
To remove settings files, select them in the table and click the button.
To rename a settings file, double-click on its name in the table, enter a new name, and press return. All names in the table must be unique.
Settings files are saved in the SiteSucker sandbox. Previous versions of SiteSucker allowed you to save settings files anywhere. To add a previously saved settings file to the sandbox, drag it to the list in the settings panel.

To add a custom identity, click the button and enter the name, version, platform, and user agent string.
To remove a custom identity, select it in the table and click the button.
