Use View -> Toolbars -> Customize to see if it's there in the list of buttons; it may have gotten removed after the update.

I saw that already Moonie, but it's not there anymore, that's why i believe the actual pm's blocking unplug ((

Is the extension shown in Tools->Addons ? As enabled or disabled ? with a blue dot or an orange dot or whatever ?

If it was blocked it would be shown in the add-on manager, but displayed as blocked, with an explanation.
If it doesn't show up at all, then it's not installed. Maybe you uninstalled it by mistake.

In the recent updates
In what (PM) versions did it work - or at least around which?

It installs into current PM (33.7.1), it is shown in Addons Manager, but you cannot 'Add toolbar button' (at least enabling it does not make it stick), & the extension does not seem to work (at least on Youtube, & not that I'm familiar with the extension & how it should work?).


UnPlug
(And obviously the version on AMO will not work.)

I uninstalled it after realizing it stopped appearing on the addon bar since a few pm updates anymore,
then reinstalled it, but corruption of the addon wasn't the issue, i installed it again from classic archive.
because of a pm update, compatibility seems to have been lost as says therube, not appearing in addons bar,
& i confirm it by "not anymore".

Well if the extension needs updating to remain compatible with Pale Moon, then so be it.

As a reminder:
Pale Moon v31.0.0 release notes wrote:We're once again accepting the installation of legacy Firefox extensions alongside our own Pale Moon exclusive extensions. As always, please note that using extensions for an old version of a different browser is entirely at your own risk and we obviously cannot and will not provide much (if any) support for their use. Firefox extensions will be indicated with an orange dot in the Add-ons Manager in the browser.

Just explicitly adding Pale Moon's id seems to get it working (it brought up the options dialog on first run and the add-on bar button & menu item are present; I didn't do anything more than that).

You're a magician Adoxa! )) thank you so very much )) do you folks think adding that pale moon id makes it
fully compatible, allowing unplug to have its reference page on palemoon's extensions section ?
