Pale Moon persona not found

Unread post by superA » 2015-05-16, 17:17

Maybe its old news,so sorry for my ignorance.
I was searching in AMO's themes (personas) and I couldn't find the classic pale moon persona,for some reason its gone.
Of course its available in the firstrun page (http://www.palemoon.org/firstrun.shtml),but other than making a new profile or install PM for a first time I cant think of any other way to get it.

Its a matter of personal taste for sure,but I dont think its a bad idea to be hosted in PM's addon site.
Thanks.

The problem is that only those with new profiles will be able to see the live preview of personas on the add-ons site but could install them regardless.. This a security measure and the reason I have not deployed personas on the Add-ons site is for this reason. To get this to work in an established profile it will require changes to the Pale Moon source code or the user to specifically whitelist addons.palemoon.org. So I have been holding off until we can have a fully working solution.

The Pale Moon personas were removed from AMO because they were old and low quality.

First of all... thanks for a great browser!!! I've been using it for several years now, and I've been a long time lurker on this board.

Is there any way that you can post the personas mentioned above in this thread??? I really miss the light blue background, and I've lost the installation file.

Thanks!!!

I'll make a proper page explaining what it is etc. later, but you will have the "ancient" version and the one I updated just the other day with the current logo. You can click on either image to install the personas.

I am using the Fox 2 the Moon theme. When I hover over the old Pale Moon personas via the link above, it appears that both F2TM and the PM persona can be used simultaneously. But when I go ahead and download the persona and restart PM, F2TM "goes away" and only the persona shows. Is there a way to hack it so I can keep F2TM's icons while using the persona?

You have something like Persona Switcher. You have to understand that Personas is one big hack anyway.. It is not how the skinning engine was designed to work. Persona Switcher is a hack on a hack.

We do have plans to resolve this at some point in the browser with a proper way of doing personas with any theme independently of each other.. But that is on the "would be nice to have enhancement" list. It does involve some tricky toolkit code and modification of the Add-ons Manager but it is in the back of our minds as a project to do at some point.

I have installed the new Pale Moon persona, but for some reason my Status bar keeps turning blue, instead of the bluish gray color of the persona's footer. Any suggestions on how I could fix this?

Try selecting the default theme in the add-on manager, then re-select the installed Pale Moon persona.

I have tried that, but it only temporarily resolves the issue. As soon as I restart Pale Moon, the issue returns.

Don't know what to say.. it works fine here (I've been using it for several days with many restarts)...

I don't understand, either. I guess I'll just have to do some more troubleshooting; maybe one of the other add-ons I use is causing the issue.

It turns out that uBlock Origin is the culprit, but I have no idea why.. Has anyone else experienced issues using uBlock Origin in combination with a lightweight theme? Is there an easy fix?

The problem seems to have resolved itself, somehow. I still don't know what caused it in the first place, but I guess it doesn't matter anymore.

Just rechecked this thread... thanks a lot for the classic personas. They're awesome and simple, as I like it.
