When you set Notepad++ as default program to open .json-files, you can directly open and edit them from within the .xpi, save and the .xpi will be updated. [Edit] In my XP Virtual Machine I use an older version of Notepad++ (7.5.1), since newer versions don't support XP any more... npp.7.5.1.Installer.zip Edited October 22, 2020 by nicolaasjan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanR20 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 @nicolaasjan, That makes it easier than extracting it. You can also directly edit the file with 7-zip within the .xpi and without extraction (it'll open notepad) but sometimes that works and sometimes not as far as corrupting the addon. Better to go with with a program like Notepad++ that's more reliable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want YouTube’s classic layout (which btw might cease to exist at any time) in NM27, have you tried a user agent override with “googlebot” as discussed in https://msfn.org/board/topic/181184-yt-may-not-work-on-old-browsers-anymore-starting-march-2020/?do=findComment&comment=1183860? It seems like someone mentioned in this thread that the same method worked for NM27 - probably within the last 45 pages, but I don’t feel like searching for that today. Edit: I missed the part about such SSUAOs stopped working weeks ago. Edited October 23, 2020 by Vistapocalypse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A similar (advanced) setting exists inside WinRar, too: (Apologies, but I currently have a Greek-only installation of latest WinRar 5.91, I guess you still get the idea, hopefully ) PS: The code editor of my choice...

Unfortunately, the youtube SSUAO method has ceased working many weeks ago, whether you impersonate Google Bot or a relatively old Firefox (etc.) version ; more finer "machinery" is currently needed for Youtube in order to access their non-polymer layout, the process involves URL and Request Header manipulation (to specifically request from the server a late July/early August version of the embedded youtube player, as mentioned by @RainyShadow here ), plus some additional HTML/CSS fixes may be needed to be applied on the generated "Classic" youtube page... This is basically what the two Firefox WEs discussed previously actually do...

WE need a "legacy" type extension for both New Moon 27+28 to regain Classic YT ; NM28, with its more advanced platform and engine, stands better chances of having such an add-on created for it, not least because it also supports jetpack extensions... Another possible solution would be to write a usescript duplicating the functions of those WEs and installing it on NM27/28 via "Greasemonkey for Pale Moon" This subject, but for official Pale Moon 28, was first brought up in the official support forum: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=25030 but the developers there, despite having the know-how to write such an extension, vehemently refused to do so, sayin' it isn't worth their time and effort on developing something that may get obsoleted any day now... Quote no one in their right mind will port over a dying extension/trick to Pale Moon. The sooner you/we accept this, the better. I do note, however, that we have a "coders corner" here at MSFN: https://msfn.org/board/forum/99-coding-scripting-and-servers/ ...perhaps it wouldn't hurt asking over there... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
