Firefox addons on seamonkey

Many addons for firefox don't work on seamonkey. Is there any risk in overriding the security settings? Or is there perhaps a tool that allows for compatibility?

I like the idea of a calendar and mailclient in the same piece of software, but if I can't use the addons I use in firefox, I'm sticking with firefox.

Have you checked through the Seamonkey addons list?
Here is also a blog reference from PuppyLinux (which uses Seamonkey).

There are many addons for SeaMonkey, and many Firefox addons can also work in SeaMonkey. There is a site that has some Firefox addons modified for SeaMokey:

Seamonkey is great if you are already using PuppyLinux.

The xSidebar addon is no more required for Seamonkey 2.0+ – Julien Kronegg – 2014-03-22T22:51:23.220

Also, there is Seamonkey Compatibility Tables of Converted Extensions that can convert and install many FF extensions.

you may want to add this addon to seamonkey : checkcompatibility

Most of the time, it won't work, but sometime, it can force seamonkey to install an addon supposed to be incompatible for no good reason.

I checked your link and that addon is only available for Firefox, so I would imagine that's the wrong way around!? :-) – Alexis Wilke – 2018-06-03T02:32:15.667

Sorry, but you shall verify again here https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/checkcompatibility/versions/ : "working with Firefox 4.0 - 56., SeaMonkey 2.1 - 2.11a1, Thunderbird 3.3a1 - 31. ". By the way, all of this is outdated.

Ah, I see the comment also, but the button does not let me download anything for SeaMonkey. It forces me to go download Firefox... – Alexis Wilke – 2018-06-05T16:45:30.323
