When I upgraded to 5.1.1, I had no problems. I had heard there were issues with Pale Moon & 5.1.2, so I refrained from upgrading until I saw the release notes stating that the URL bar issue was fixed in the developmental builds. So I upgraded to 5.1.3rc2, and I experienced the disappearing icon in the status bar. I restarted the browser (no need to go to Safe Mode first), and this corrected the problem.
This occurred with Pale Moon 27.4.2 x86_84 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I made this a separate thread from the other thread since that is about NS 5.1.2 in Firefox 56, and you seemed to imply that it was fixed in the developmental builds (it hasn't, at least not for Pale Moon.) My apologies if you think this should have gone in that thread.
BTW, I installed 5.1.3rc2 in Pale Moon 27.6.0a1 for the first time, and the icon appeared as it should. But this was not an upgrade but rather a new install.

That issue is not dealt with in dev builds yet. But since this concerns Pale Moon and not Firefox, the separate thread is fine for now. We'll merge the threads if Giorgio decides that's appropriate.gracious1 wrote: I made this a separate thread from the other thread since that is about NS 5.1.2 in Firefox 56, and you seemed to imply that it was fixed in the developmental builds (it hasn't, at least not for Pale Moon.)

Does the workaround from the other thread work in Pale Moon too? -
UPDATE WITH A FIXThanks and sorry for the inconvenience, we're trying to figure out what exactly is happening and how to make sure it doesn't happen again.
- Firefox menu > Help (?) > Restart with Add-ons disabled
- Click the [Continue in Safe Mode] button
- Restart the browser again normally: NoScript UI should be back now
Please report here the list of your add-ons as shown in about:supportno need for this anymore, we've got enough data, thank you all!
Furthermore, if you feel extra adventurous and helpful, please install 5.1.3rc1 from https://noscript.net/getit#devel, to provide us with some indication on what to expect on next update.

Re: PM 27 - NoScript status bar icon disappears with 5.1.3rc
Well, as I thought I had stated (or at least implied) in my original post, it wasn't necessary for me to take the trouble to restart in Safe Mode and then restart normally. I simply did File -> Restart (which is a built-in feature of PM as of v. 27.5). The simple restart restored the UI without the intervening step of going into Safe Mode.barbaz wrote:Does the workaround from the other thread work in Pale Moon too?
So as far I can see, this is not any sort of extension conflict.

Sorry, I missed that part of your post.
Does it disappear again when you upgrade to 5.1.3rc3?
If so, when this issue occurs, do you see anything related in the Browser Console? (Ctrl-Shift-J)
(if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)

Re: PM 27 - NoScript status bar icon disappears with 5.1.3rc
After I read your post, I found that 5.1.3 had been released, so I have not tried 5.1.3rc3 .
So I upgraded to 5.1.3. This time a different UI oddity occurred. On one window, I got a two NoScript buttons, as illustrated below.
{Actually, I can't show you. Every time I try to post an image or any kind of URL, I get an anti-spam warning.!}
The one on the right, which has a red outline and a down arrow, pops up a context menu when you right-click it. The one the left, which is all-white, pops up the menu on hover.
Two other windows were open, and they only showed the one button, the all-white button.
EDIT: Actually, it's worse than that. So frustrated. I've just suffered some bizarre UI issues, including the disappearance of buttons from modal dialogs. I had to completely disable NoScript and then use Clean Install to remove all the prefs to get my profile work again.

You mean affecting just NoScript's UI or other stuff as well?gracious1 wrote: EDIT: Actually, it's worse than that. So frustrated.

Other stuff. For example, when I did Restart , the modal dialog that asks "Are you sure you want to restart" had its buttons missing. The text of the buttons was there, but there was no button drawn.Giorgio Maone wrote:You mean affecting just NoScript's UI or other stuff as well?gracious1 wrote: EDIT: Actually, it's worse than that.
