Haha, yep Little skeptical about updates though, never know when they could change something and break compatibility. Unlikely, but not impossible by any means. In the worse case scenario we could just turn to a static approach, use the last working version. As of today that is v. 4.9.24.Matt A Tobin wrote:Video DownloadHelper does not know of Pale Moon however, it does Just Work(tm)

And curious, I read an announcement regarding some server maintenance and updates to the addons website. When shall these take place?
I see. If you could clarify though please; just how does one have an extension or theme authored on the PM addons library if he/she desires? To whom would they contact?Matt A Tobin wrote:On going actually.11ryanc wrote:Haha, yep Little skeptical about updates though, never know when they could change something and break compatibility.

I thought that at first too, then remembered that I could use Ctrl-F.back2themoon wrote:The improved "Known Incompatible..." page is quite nice, well done. I think you should sort the lists alphabetically, the current random state is a bit confusing to the eye (and annoying for a quick look/search).
Well here is a proper question. Since the list is manually maintained and stuff is moved from one list to another.. Do you want me to spend time making sure things are in alphabetical order / finding or creating a solution to automagically sort them.. or time making sure things are actually happening like updating the site, contacting developers, forking, pseudo-static'ing, adding externals, getting dev docs up, working on the update checking script to enable PM specific add-ons as well as AMO add-ons can be updated?x-15a2 wrote:I thought that at first too, then remembered that I could use Ctrl-F.back2themoon wrote:The improved "Known Incompatible..." page is quite nice, well done.

Knew that from the start, but it's irrelevant. Unsorted lists usually make a bad impression to the eye (and consequently, the website will leave such an impression). But even functionality-wise, why force the use of a manual search when a quick look would be enough?x-15a2 wrote:I thought that at first too, then remembered that I could use Ctrl-F.back2themoon wrote:The improved "Known Incompatible..." page is quite nice, well done.

Well honestly I imagined (wrongly, it seems) it could be handled easily and automatically (in an Excel kind of fashion), that's why I mentioned it. If these are the only two choices, there's no contest.Matt A Tobin wrote:Well here is a proper question. Since the list is manually maintained and stuff is moved from one list to another..

In the long run it won't matter the GOAL is to reduce the page down to one SMALL simple list and eliminate entries.back2themoon wrote: Well honestly I imagined (wrongly, it seems) it could be handled easily and automatically (in an Excel kind of fashion), that's why I mentioned it.

The list could have been sorted in the time it took to type your post. Once it's sorted, it wouldn't have to be sorted again.Matt A Tobin wrote:Well here is a proper question.

That assumes the list is never changing. That also assumes I am not using HTML. That additionally assumes it is one list. Use CTRL+F.. I will deal with it when I am not busy with everything else.Brian wrote:The list could have been sorted in the time it took to type your post. Once it's sorted, it wouldn't have to be sorted again.
