Or, you don't have java script enabled, or other reasons. Usually, when trying to d/l something & an html extension appears, it means no actual file is available for d/l. In any case, saving an html can't be Mozilla's intended method for installing lightweight themes in Tbird? Yesterday, I posted a concern on the AMO forum about the personas' Add buttons all linking to Personas Plus addon (instead of installing them in Tbird). So, I can't install or d/l & install personas, while using Tbird. When I use Tbird to visit AMO & R-click on any personas' Add button > "Save Link As," I see: " Add to Thunderbird.htm.".You may be using Firefox to get (download) Tbird personas? However, I think we're talking about 2 different situations.Any ideas? I don't block anything in Tbird (no blocking apps, etc.) & java script is disabled by default in TB. I've never seen a situation where you d/l an html document (the web page), in order to get some program / application to install. How did you figure out downloading an html document to install a persona? But, I didn't ask about full themes, nor was I trying to install full themes. Full themes have declined drastically - especially for recent Firefox versions. I may not've been clear - but many users know the difference, by now. But I've also not installed or downloaded any themes in a while - either TB or Fx. I've had no problems up till now on AMO, with either Fx or TB. If you do, note anything that's blocked on AMO - like if using NoScript, etc. Maybe someone can try using TB to download a Tbird theme - saving to disk and try it with Fx. Those are the only 2 it shows are requesting to load scripts, besides & (the latter 2 are allowed). I use NoScript, but every 1st & 3rd party java script is allowed on AMO, except Google analytics &. That's OK, but still can't get a theme into TB, by any means. Fx immediately loaded that T-bird theme into Fx. However, using Fx to browse the Tbird Themes pages, I accidentally clicked "Add," instead of R-click & d/l. Maybe the AMO theme pages for Tbird are messed up (using Tbird)? xpi files for other Fx extensions, just not themes for TB. For some reason, using Fx, I also can't d/l an xpi file for Tbird Lighweight themes. Again, it's already installed & active (the ONLY addon), in the new profile.Ģ) If I R click & try to d/l a theme for TB (while using TB to access AMO), it won't show an xpi file - just an *.html file that it's going to d/l.ģ) Same in Fx 30 (now) - for the Thunderbird lightweight themes. No message, no error - just a clean redirect. Still, if using TB on the AMO themes page, if I try to add a new Lt.weight theme, it redirects to Personas Plus page. Wasn't aware in TB 24.x, that Personas Plus was still required, to install a Lt.weight theme, but.ġ) So I installed Personas Plus in the new profile. It was already installed, but I figured it might be corrupted. In old profile (using TB to access the addon site) - after problems started, if I tried to install a new lightweight theme, it'd just redirect me to the download page for Personas Plus. It works fine, but still can't install any themes from AMO, accessing it w/ Tbird. In Tbird 24.6 in Windows, Created a new profile & restored bare necessities - accounts, email.
