Addon "Document Font Toggle"
Hi,
I come directly from Firefox and want to try out Pale Moon in the hope it is more stable and needs less RAM.
In my old firefox profile I have the following addon "Document Font Toggle".
With this addon I can change between the user defined font and the font from the homepage with one click.
I wanted to add this addon into Pale Moon. But then I discovered, that this addon was removed through the developer from the mozilla addon website. https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/a ... nt-toggle/
So I have it still in Firefox and it works in firefox 54. It was last updatet in september 2015.
Question:
Is there a way to get it from my firefox profile into Pale Moon?
Thank you.
Vitasta

Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
To install "Document Font Toggle" addon from Firefox profile into Pale Moon follow these steps:
- Open Firefox, enter about:support into location bar and press Enter
- Click to "Open Folder" button to open Firefox profile in Windows Explorer
- Change folder to extensions, copy dft@dietrich.cx.xpi file and save it somewhere
- Open Pale Moon and install Moon Tester Tool add-on
- Go to about:addons, open "Moon Tester Tool" options and then "Select file..."
- Select dft@dietrich.cx.xpi from step 3.
- Do not forget to read all the warnings and restrictions for Moon Tester Tool
- I give this instruction to you only because I already checked that "Document Font Toggle" works well when installed this way

Thank you. I tried this out.

It seems that your copy of the add-on was packaged using old toolchain. Here is the build made using the modern one, it will be installed without errors.Vitasta wrote:Result: Not able to install because it is Jetpack/SDK addon
Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
Thank you. This version works great. I like it.
In the mean time I have deactivated Moon Tester Tool. And I am surprised: Now it works nevertheless. (?)

Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
OK. Thank you.
What is with this addon:
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/a ... src=search
(You can save the wohle webpage in one single file with this addon.)
First I wanted to make an entry for this addon in viewtopic.php?f=44&t=5883&start=80
But there is written, that we can report further addons in the "compatibility board".
I was not able to find the "compatibility board" to report this.

Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
This add-on made using WebExtensions, Pale Moon does not support this type of extensions.Vitasta wrote:What is with this addon:

Take a look at MozArchiver.(You can save the wohle webpage in one single file with this addon.)
Use forum search and open new topic if required. Known Incompatible Add-ons page can be also useful.I was not able to find the "compatibility board" to report this.
Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
Thank you for the link of MozArchiver.
But not sure if I will use it. "Save Page WE" makes a single file which is in html.

Addon Exporter seems not to work in Firefox: There is no export Button after the restart.

I knew it didn't work in Palemoon, but thought it would in FF since it was written for it.Vitasta wrote:@billmcct

After looking again, this was the ONLY release of the addon besides a beta version and it hasn't been updated since it's release on 05/28/2014.

Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
OK.
In general, when I want to move an Addon from Firefox to Pale Moon without using Moon Tester Tool can I then simply copy it from Firefox Profile to Pale Moon Profile and then start Pale Moon. Or are other steps needed?

Re: Addon "Document Font Toggle"
Theoretically yes, but this is not the best way to migrate since you will probably need versions different from installed in Firefox.Vitasta wrote:can I then simply copy it from Firefox Profile to Pale Moon Profile and then start Pale Moon?

No , this seems not to work.JustOff wrote:Theoretically yes, but this is not the best way to migrate since you will probably need versions different from installed in Firefox.Vitasta wrote:can I then simply copy it from Firefox Profile to Pale Moon Profile and then start Pale Moon?
I copied http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fi ... 1884113028 (Cleanlinks) into the folder "extensions" of my Pale Moon profile. Then I closed Pale Moon and started it again. Now CleanLinks Addon was not part of the addon list.
But I found out how it works:
When we have saved any *.xpi anywhere, we must go to File->open File and choose this *.xpi. Now it will be installed.
I was able to install Clean Links version 2.8a1 with "File->open File".
Question:
When we install addons via webpage, Pale Moon gives a warning when it is not compatible. Does Pale Moon also give a warning when we use the "File->open File" way?
