NoScript 5.1.7 appears to be compatible with Pale Moon (and 5.1.8.4 as well)

Unread post by Go_To » 2018-03-17, 21:48

Officially, NoScript Version 2.9.0.14 from August 2016 is the last supported version for Pale Moon. (EDIT: CORRECTION, Version 5.0.6 was the officially last supported version)

Just for fun, I went to the "version history" section, found version 5.1.7 (the last one before they switched to WebExtension), downloaded the file, and manually installed it. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... ns/?page=1

I'm testing as of now, and haven't noticed any issues, for now.

Although that brings up the other question of PM's future when many of the addon developers quit or fully commit to WebExtension down the road.

EDIT: Okay, it appears that when a new window is opened, you lose the NoScript config option at the bottom of the screen that allows you decide which scrips to run, while the original window works fine. Not sure how to get that back, so I'm going back one version at a time.

EDIT2: Mercury pointed out that 5.1.8.4 works as well.

Not quite true . . . version 5.0.6 is found on Pale Moon's own add-on page:

Browsers don't exist for extensions . . . it's the other way around. ;) Besides, there's already over 150 add-ons listed on PM's add-on page.

Ah, I didn't realize we had that on our add-on page, I was only looking at the version history, and it claimed that 2.9.0.14 was the last compatible one.

NoScript "Classic" (5.1.8.4) works just fine for me.

That one is actually working better than 5.1.7 (opening 2nd window doesn't cause NoScript's icon at the bottom of the browser to disappear).
