Pale Moon v27 is now out and neither the official nor the modified version of FlashGot work.

If you are using an external download manager like JDownloader2, etc. FG properly passes the link.
Unfortunately if you want to use the browser's built-in download, it reports as "Failed".

I don't know what's changed in PM to produce this but it is disappointing.

I'm open to any suggestions or ideas.

[quote="DoctorM"]Again, the only change is to SDownloadsAPI.jsm to change the version check from 26.01a to 29.0.[/quote]
A cursory inspection shows that to be correct.
(I didn't look at the "signing", nor do I have any clue about FlashGot, this or the mod'd one, & PaleMoon, in general.)

A Pale Moon compatible version of the most recent version of FlashGot is on this thread: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=11534#p82603

Any bugs or issues with the program's normal functionality is up to its author to deal with... who has been MIA for quite a while.

Hello! Congratulations and thanks for your excellent FlashGot extension - it has always been very helpful. Just registered to also ask if this Pale Moon compatibility problem might be hopefully fixed. :)

Definitely needs a fix.

The only fix I could find for this was disable add-on updates for this add-on and reinstall FlashGot Version: 1.5.5.8.1, It worked for me.

Here's a link.

I am also looking for a solution myself.

But I thought I'd share this, while I patiently wait for a fix.

There's a thread on the Pale Moon support forum concerning this. Am linking it hoping it will be helpful: [url]http://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=11534[/url]

Someone sent me a beta (?) to use until something permanent comes along and after a reboot it didn't work again a tall.

So I'm back to using a version from last year but we'll see after another reboot.

[quote="Guest"]Please fix FlashGot to work with Pale Moon.

Well it's down again/. West to use it this afternoon and nothing was where it supposed to be. I hope reverting to an old version helps until you guys get it fixxed

Fixed.

[quote="Guest"]Ditto. Another PM user who would like to see FlashGot keep up with it.[/quote]

I've seen two problems:

First, starting with 1.5.6.12, JSDownloadsAPI.jsm contains the line "return Services.vc.compare(Services.appinfo.version, "26.0a1") >= 0;".
Pale Moon is a higher version number but needs the pre-v26 JSM version to function, especially on YouTube.

With v1.5.6.13, the above is possibly still an issue, but FlashGot is now completely non-functional. It throws an error that a core component is missing.

Ditto. Another PM user who would like to see FlashGot keep up with it.

i concur, same problem here
