Anyone have success installing extensions in SM 2.1b1?


No go with:

LiveHTTPeaders

Don't work with Seamonkey 2.1b1

British English Dictionary 1.19 is also don't work for me!



With the ones that don't install I've tried bumping up the maxVersion
number to no avail.

You can use Nightly Tester Tools.


I'm using this extensions :
Signal Spam 0.5.2
Nostalgy 0.2.25.2
Adblock Plus 1.3.1
ChatZilla 0.9.86
AutoPager 0.6.1.16
Nightly Tester Tools 2.5.1
Forecastfox Weather 2.0.2.0.2
Dictionnaire français «Classique» 3.9.2
United States English Spellchecker 5.0.1
User Agent Switcher 0.7.2.2



There have been quite severe changes in the extensions subsystem for
Gecko 2 (Firefox 4 - SeaMonkey 2.1 - etc.), so it's understandable that
many extensions haven't yet followed suit.

In general, if an extension supports Firefox and SeaMonkey, and if it
supports Firefox 4.0b8pre or higher, it will "probably" run correctly in
the latest SeaMonkey trunk nightlies, though if it doesn't boast support
for Sm 2.1b2pre you may have to either bump the maxVersion or set
extensions.checkCompatibility.2.1b to true in about:config (this
preference doesn't exist by default). Beware that if you set this pref
it is *your* responsibility to disable misbehaving extensions: SeaMonkey
will still check the version compatibility and mention any mismatches in
the addons manager, but it won't anymore auto-disable extensions which
say they are incompatible. Alternatively, you could install the "Add-on
Compatibility Reporter" extension, which allows you to report which
extensions worked in spite of a compatibility mismatch, and which ones
didn't in spite of a match.

Good info, Tony, thanks. I may try that pref or I may just wait until 2.1 matures some more.

So far 2.1 Beta 1 seems pretty stable. Haven't had any glitches yet but I'm only a few days into it.
