Add-on help is asked for by a new user
Just switched to Pale Moon from Firefox, and I need an add-on which can access Wiktionary, the dictionary of Wikipedia. I tried installing from Firefox, but I got the following error message:
I am also looking for an add-on or css code to be placed in the userCrome.css to round the tab corners, and color the active tab. Your help is much appreciated.

Re: Add-on help is asked for by a new user
Your window error showed because wikipedia search actually exists in Palemoon, but it named plain wikipedia.
So if you really want Wiktionary you have to delete Wikipedia from search list, pull down it, select last item, finde wikipedia, delete it, then install Wiktionary.
update: not do that i write above, see below, actually wikipedia and Wiktionary different things

Go to Wiktionary, the free dictionary for English Wiktionary (and a few others). Go to List_of_Wiktionaries for a complete list (for the complete list page, click the 2-character language code to go to the dictionary). When you're on the dictionary page you want, click the "Search using ..." icon in the Searchbar. A menu item to add the selected Wiktionary should be found at the bottom of the drop-down search menu.

Re: Add-on help is asked for by a new user
The Active Tab More Visible extension looks like it may be helpful with my favorite themes.
Is there a way to adjust its tab color (perhaps in about:config)?
Is there a way to stop the heavy bolding and/or shadowing of its tab font? Its titles are barely readable on my system.

Re: Add-on help is asked for by a new user
I'd suspect it is your theme that is not interacting as you wish with the extension.
The extension is very simple & does very little; black text on an almost white background.
If you are seeing bolding/shadowing, it is probably already there, by your theme, & this extension just happens to make it more apparent.
You could hack the extension, changing he colors selected.
Or forgo the extension & just put the code in a userChrome.css file. (Requires browser restart.)
Perhaps something like this, changing the color to suit your needs (http://rgb.to/0,255,0):

Re: Add-on help is asked for by a new user
The following CSS code places a thin (in this case blue) line at the top of the active tab:
more subtle than changing the entire tab color and still easily noticed.
Code: Select all
.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] {
background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(105,105,1005,.96), rgba(05,05,05,.85) 25%),
linear-gradient(-moz-dialog, -moz-dialog) !important;
color: white !important;}
