add ons install issue
Whenever I go to install an add on, I never get an install option noted for the add on, it only shows "Only with Firefox -- Get Firefox now" instead of the install button. Please advise how to correct this. Thanks.
Re: add ons install issue
If you're trying add-ons from Mozilla's site, they won't work because they are web extensions and Pale Moon does not support web extensions (and never will, Pale Moon is not Firefox). Are you aware there is a Pale Moon add-on site? Plus, most of the older Firefox non-web extension add-ons will work. See links below.

Re: add ons install issue
The prompts you are getting are for Firefox "webextensions" and Pale Moon does not run these type of addons. In other words, you're looking in the wrong place. The addons you are looking at are for Quantum Firefox version 57 and up.
Try the link below.

Or the legacy addons that Firefox and Pale used.
