Probably something dumb

Post by tucuman » 2025-12-08, 18:19

Hi guys! It's me again. As you help me to install PM on Linux, have another question probably very dumb. How can I make that different extensions buttons appear on the navigation bar. Now I have 3 installed (PureLink, UBlock and User Agent status). I need to put UA status on the navigation bar but it seems totally impossible...any suggestion?

It's designed for the Status Bar. From the extension's page: "The old workaround of moving the icon to the navigation bar will not work. You can make use of the tooltip as well as the middle click actions and context menu items instead."

What's dumb IMO is trying to put everything on the nav bar.

I am using 64 bit linux Pale Moon 33.9.1 (GTK2). I have two extensions and one theme which I use for Pale Moon. Those two extensions are uBlock Origin 1.16.6.1 and Zoom Label (1.3). The theme I am using is Past Modern Revisited (2.10.2).

Below is a screenshot showing both extensions being placed to the right of the Address for web addresses (past the Home button, past the Download Button) in the theme. Those two extensions were put there where I wanted them to be by using the Customization Toolbar.

I did it with Mint when I was using Mint and now with MX Linux and Debian.

You could make an extra toolbar. I did that for my extensions and have 20 buttons on it.

@tucuman I suppose you know that the bars are configured from View=>Toolbars=>Customize dragging and dropping from/to the bars and the customization panel.
There is also in the same place a button "Add New Toolbar"

Personally I added a bar under menu and navigation and above toolbars and tabs. Since I like text-only buttons, the only snag is that the extension buttons are not all well vertically aligned (but that I guess depends on the extension)
