Noscript "classic" no longer working on nightly builds

Post by noxious »

As the title says I've noticed Noscript legacy/classic no longer works with nightly, as far as I can tell this is the first build where it stopped working https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nig ... a-central/ and hasn't been working since.
I know Mozilla no longer supports legacy extensions but I hope this isn't permanent *fingers crossed*.

There is no expectation that Classic would work in anything later then FF 52 ESR (at this point, or perhaps through 56 at that time), so that it "happens" or happened to work in Quantum/Nightly at all...

It's permanent. NoScript Classic does not support Firefox 57+.

If you want to use NoScript Classic, you need to use either 52 ESR or 56.
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

Or you could use Nightly builds before this one https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nig ... a-central/

If that works for you, good for you. But we don't support it and cannot recommend it.
