Add-ons • Re: Working on a Greasemonkey fork for Pale Moon

Original GreaseMonkey for PM refuses to check for user script updates if you have auto-updating of extensions in Pale Moon disabled, even if triggered by the user, in which case extensions will be checked, but user scripts will be skipped. I just remembered I deleted this section in the copy of GreaseMonkey I've been using for the last couple of years.

I didn't study the meaning of aForced parameter, so just deleting all of these may not be the most correct approach.

Edit: I see this value is false on manual check, so I guess it was right to delete all of it.

I have released a new version that fixes this particular issue. If my assumption is right, I think Janek introduced this mechanism, in intention of making the userscripts not check for updates on their own schedule, if the "Update Add-ons Automatically" is unchecked. He had that in mind, but I guess he didn't have in mind that this would spawn this bug.

I went ahead and added some lines that would make it possible for you to have the "Update Add-ons Automatically" unchecked, but you still want to manually check for updates (From the "gear" icon). I also applied a PR from a contributor to make it possible for you to update scripts manually, by right-clicking individual scripts.

If you have the extension installed on your browser, it should already be updated to the latest version.
