Firefox Thinking Palemoon is Firefox Version 27

Unread post by BKelley56 » 2018-12-26, 11:48

Hello All,

I wasn't sure what to put in the title so I kept it short, but here is my question. Most of the time when I try to install a Firefox add-on it says it can't because I'm using Firefox version 27. Of course I'm not, I'm using Palemoon version 28.2.2.

I thought I read somewhere, many moons back, where there was something that could be "tweaked" to trick Firefox into thinking I had the most current Firefox software, and I could be wrong, but I wanted to ask that question of you folks here.

Thanks for your time.

If you're talking about installing something from Mozilla's add-ons site, I'm fairly sure the add-ons there are not compatible with Pale Moon at all anymore, regardless of version.

Not now.. everything on AMO is a webextension.

MODERATOR: Please move this to the Extensions sub-board this has nothing to do with the Pale Moon Add-ons Site

I find this sub-board very useful, for both questions and answers, so would like it to be kept unless there's an equivalent alternative one.
