Re: [Ext] Classic Theme Restorer
Good to know. I've been waiting. I don't like sharing profiles with more than one browser. I do have backups, so no harm done. It will be nice to see it divorced from FX. I hope he can continue to support Legacy add-ons for as long as possible. Fending off the inevitable...Melchior82 wrote:yup..

Re: [Ext] Classic Theme Restorer
Firefox is generally the best lol
though it has its issues these days..
I see way too much crashing... here is a simple list... AND THERE ALL JavaScript CRASHES!! FACEBOOK HELL... and Firefox... uggh.. v55 is supposed to have fixed it but it doesn't look like the fix was including in ESR v52.3... anyway that list..
CRASHES
8/18/17 = 1
8/19/17 = 11!!!
8/20/17 = 2
8/21/17 = 5
and th last one before this set was on
8/7/17 = 4
so its not always happening... its strange

No. I'm wanting to keep to a Mozilla style browser so I can keep my add-ons. If everything goes away (eventually it will) Vivaldi is on my list for a try-out.WildcatRay wrote:Have you tried Vivaldi?

Re: [Ext] Classic Theme Restorer

Hello! Thanks for the Classic Theme Restaurant !
I tried to install Classic Theme Restaurant in Palemoon 27.4.1, but I have an incompatibility error! http://cdn1.savepice.ru/uploads/2017/8/ ... e-full.jpg
Is it possible to turn the Classic Theme Restorer settings into css code and add it to the userChrome.css file that was in the profile folder in the Chrome folder ?
Or by Stylish ?
Thank you very much for your help!

Me too, I thought to find alternatives, K-Meleon was looking good except no YT video and the author had a HDD crash may use Chrome just for YT.
Also want to have the security of AdBlockPlus and NoScript, too late, mistakenly loaded FF 55.0.1 portable, so will have to install FFESR beside FF regular, reload all the extensions on the ESR, with a new profile and then see if just copy and paste the key3.db and login.json into the new/empty 'Saved Passwords Editor' on the ESR hoping it will work.
I have;
AdBlockPlus\
CTR
Cookie Controller
Download Status Bar
Flagfox
FDM extension 2.2.3
HTTPS Everywhere
NoScript
Saved Passwword Editor
and
User Agent Switcher
--all labelled as legacy, need ABP, NoScript, HTTPS, for security and what is going to happen to the Saved Passwords Editor, am I going to lose all my
passwords next year? Some one had better come up with some good replacements.
Can't show a picture, tinypic isn't co-operating, but the way I like my FF is, tabs on bottom (got used to the curved ones though) url and search in the middle, with the buttons, then menu bar on top, more or less like FF4. Do not like the other browsers where tabs are on top.
Sign me...Frustrated as hell.
If it ain't broke [talking to you,Mozilla] don't fix it, and I had a clean stable use for years, even when the portable versions were occasionally slow, nothing that couldn't be fixed by a good cache clearing.
EDIT: Found the three files in the FF regular 55, key3.db, signons.sqlite {hope I spelled that right} and because of the editor, logins.json, copied them to another media, then dropped them or I should say overwrote the ones that were already in the ESR version and it worked, so answered my own question, no I won't lose my passwords, if I keep them secure and separate. Getting the ESR and regular running together was a little bit trickier. Had to locate the .ini files in the regular, go to the sample one under the 'Other' folder, copy it to the FF root and edit the 'AllowMultipleInstances" to true
but keep the ESR version as it is. Remembering to launch the ESR first, then the FF regular. Then for myself, made the ESR the default browser and now the regular becomes the test bed to see what changes Mozilla {how?} affects in the regular channel, including affecting Classic Theme Restorer!
Then see what WE come down the pike for the regular version, not going to like it when 57 breaks CTR, but the ESR at least tides me over until I can make up my mind if I'm going to jump ship or stick with FF.

Re: [Ext] Classic Theme Restorer
Well, 55.0.2 portable already has an effect on my Classic Theme Restorer, I have to do a dance where I disable it, restart, re-enable, restart and the settings click in. In a setup where , after a few fumbles, I got ESR, now default and regular able to run in parallel. The regular being a test bed now to see what WEs can replace what i use now, though looking at alternatives, like Qupzilla, every bit as customizable as Firefox used to be, indeed with the desktop theme I use, beginning with Win7s classic theme and colouring it [with fonts] to look like the old "Maple" theme from 2000Pro/XPPro. Makes it look much like FF3. The only glitch so far is password migration, which didn't work the first, second or third attempt, nor any integration with Free Download Manager. Will keep working on the former and request the author work with FDM to make an extension or any kind of integration.

Not sure about the connection to CTR, because the only change between those two CTR builds was a css tweak for some dropmarkers, nothing more.Melchior82 wrote:YUP!! FF v52.x ESR is the way to go for now... OR
move to Waterfox once v55.0.1 is released for windows at least.. Linux and MAC binaries are out already
he is waiting for the signing token to arrive so he can sign the binaries...
EDIT1:
I have been having A LOT of constant crashing on FF v52.x
tabs always open
-email, GMAIL, Facebook, YouTube
plus other tabs as needed..
considering my only update was to CTR
From: Classic Theme Restorer (Customize UI)(v1.6.9_beta8)_fx(v45-v56)
To : Classic Theme Restorer (Customize UI)(v1.7.0_Beta1)_fx(v45-v56)
so I downgraded to last version...
and did teh required restart it LOCKED on just after the old tabs showed up I had to force kill the process...
it seems fine now... will see if it stops the crashes...
BUT THEN AGAIN... FF has a JavaScript bug especially with Facebook that was Supposedly
FIXED with v55 BUT it appears they didn't BOTHER to back port it to the v52.x branch of code...!!!!????
Did you have those crashes month ago when Fx 52.0 was on release channel?
Although I had no real plans to this for Firefox forks, I will update my add-ons as long as possible for Firefox 52ESR. Hopefully Firefox forks, that do not change the ui the way Firefox 57 does, will not need add-on updates.L.A.R. Grizzly wrote:This may have been mentioned earlier, but do you have any plans to keep CTR and CTB alive for alternate browsers such as Waterfox once FX esr's go by the wayside?
CTR was created to get rig of the Australis ui in Firefox 29+. Palemoon never offered that ui, so CTR was never intended to work with Palemoon. Feel free to use any css code you find in CTR in Stylish/userChrome.css on Palemoon. Some things might work well others not so much.moitreker wrote:Aris

Yes, 'old search' does not work in Firefox 56 anymore. Switch to Fx52ESR, if you want to use it.mightyglydd wrote:Just noticed that...fireattack wrote:Perhaps has been asked, but old search UI is dead in Fx 56?

Sound like browser profile corruption or incompatibility between CTR and other add-ons. Does this happen on a new Fx55/56 (portable) profile with only CTR installed?Mudder wrote:Well, 55.0.2 portable already has an effect on my Classic Theme Restorer, I have to do a dance where I disable it, restart, re-enable, restart and the settings click in.
