How to tell visual studio not needing the third party assembly to be signed?

I have a website with one class library which have been strongly signed.

I'd need to use a third party .dll which hasn't been signed and I don't have access to its source code to sign it.

How would that be possible that I tell visual studio not needing the third party assembly to be signed?

It's giving me the below error:

Error 1 Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'ThirdPartyDll' does not have a strong name.

Many thanks,

You cannot use unsigned assembly from signed assembly and there is no way to do what you ask. But it is possible to sign assembly without source.

see this on haw to do it.
