(Since search plugins aren't technically extensions nor NPAPI plugins, I'm posting this in this board.)
The Urban Dictionary search plugin listed in https://addons.palemoon.org/search-plugins/ currently doesn't work. If I try to search from the search bar, it directs me to the index page, not the word I'm searching for. It probably should be removed from the PMAO repository until Urban Dictionary fixes their opensearch file.

Re: Urban Dictionary search plugin no longer works
The UD search plug I have used for many years is using "Get". I installed the one from APMO and it is using "Post".
Both work correctly for me. A search for Moon Child returned this:

That's weird. I just tested again in a fresh profile just to be sure, and it still doesn't work.

Re: Urban Dictionary search plugin no longer works
On the UD page there should be an option at the bottom of the search engine drop down to
"Add Urban Dictionary Search".
EDIT:
I just added it that way and also added a fourth time with the "Add to searchbar" addon. Both installed using "Post" and all four instances return the same pages". A search for "carpool" returned:

Adding the search engine from the search bar doesn't work either. It pops-up a dialog with the text:
In fact, Firefox users are having problems too. https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/commen ... h_engines/Pale Moon could not download the search plugin from:
