Pale Moon 28 does not use the Australis interface, and already has the features that Classic Theme Restorer brings back to browsers that do use Australis. Installing CTR is not necessary and likely will not work correctly anyway.

Others on the forum have reported having better luck with the FB Purity userscript than with the add-on. You can install userscripts using the Greasemonkey extension found on the Pale Moon Add-ons Site.

After installing the greasemonkey extension. How do I use the fb purity?
Just go to https://www.fbpurity.com/install.htm and there will be a link to automatically install the script into greasemonkey.

The file is just over 500KB; unless you're on a dial up modem it shouldn't take long at all to download it. Just to confirm, you do have version 3.31.4 of Greasemonkey for Pale Moon installed, yes? You can get it here: https://github.com/janekptacijarabaci/g ... y/releases

- open the link to the script with greasemonkey disabled, or in another browser that doesn't have greasemonkey

- CTRL A and copy everything to clipboard

- enable greasemonkey in PM

Go into your add-on manager....
Go into Extensions....
Disable Greasemonkey....
Click on one of the links given.....
Click on Show original script source....
When the script pops up hold down ctrl and A, this will copy the script to your clipboard.
Open up User Scripts in your add-on manager....
Click on New User Script....
In the pop up that appears click on Use Script From Clipboard....
It should now be visible in your (Add-ons) User Scripts...
Enable Greasemonkey.

It will not let me click on original script source. I copy to greasemonkey and its taking to long to download again. I think greasemonkey script doesn't work with pale moon for fb purity.

This direct link should work. Maybe another add-on is interfering. What add-ons do you have installed?
