  • (currently in use)

Are they extensions? Are they addons? I don’t know!

• The equivalent for Firefox is Firefox add-ons and extensions

---

All of this is accurate as of 25.4.1 (x64). Since Pale Moon is a live project, these notes will be kept up-to-date. You may assume that the latest version of these extensions will continue to work with the latest version of Pale Moon.

Get to the extensions page with Tools > Addons

These also apply to Pale Moon:

• Firefox addon/extension editing to force compatibility[doesn’t exist]

• Firefox extension IDs

Copying extensions from Firefox ∞

While this is possible, I do not recommend it.

To do it, you would copy the contents of your extensions/ folder to Pale Moon.

Copying extension preferences from Firefox ∞

This is completely unknown.

As of Firefox 38.0 and Pale Moon 25.4.1 (x64), extension information is a complete clusterfuck. It’s spilled into the profile. An extension’s information should be sandboxed into a specific directory in extensions/.

Extensions ∞

It’s probably best to install these all in one go, restart Pale Moon, then go through the list and configure them one-by-one.

When first installing an extension, it gives a “You can access” sync message underneath. Press the ‘x’.

Before installing extensions, I recommend about:config security.dialog_enable_delay;0

The list of extensions and their configuration

Misc extensions with no configuration ∞

• Bluhell Firewall

  • Block ads based on a simple rule set. Meant to be very light weight.
  • Note that is has no blacklist or whitelist.

• Just Disable Stuff ^[ 1 ] was addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/517080

  • Adds two Tools menu items. One to disable JavaScript, and another to disable images.
  • Does not appear in the private browsing window. Use it in the regular browsing window and it will also influence private browsing.
  • jid1-8J7ayxTha4KqKQ@jetpack.xpi

Misc extensions which don’t need configuration ∞

• FindBar Tweak

  • When I first tried some time ago, I could not install the beta version. I copied it from Firefox.

• Tools > Options… for Linux

  • Moves Edit > Preferences to Tools > Options, where it belongs.

TODO – Other extensions to consider ∞

TODO – also note their Firefox extension IDs.
