For an extension that is expanded, I locate the install.rdf file and

                 <em:id>{92650c4d-4b8e-4d2a-b7eb-24ecf4f6b63a}</em:id>

It might have a comment (bracketed with<!-- and -->) in front of it
mentioning SeaMonkey, but it might not.  The string for<em:id>  must
match this exactly; it identifies SeaMonkey.  Change the version number
for<em:maxVersion>  to at least 2.7.*; I actually use 2.9.*.  Save the
edited install.rdf file.

If it's a normal extension (i.e. no theme, dictionary, language pack or similar) and does not contain binary components (like Lightning or Enigmail), you don't have to do any of this for SM 2.7 if the maxVersion is at least 2.1. This is a new feature called "compatible-by-default".

No idea why so many add-ons (including ones which are for sure compatible out of the box!) appear disabled for Daniel; usually a check for add-on updates and/or SeaMonkey restart helps to fix these issues.
