Hi I am trying to create a simple extension for firefox . I am using firefox version 44.0a2 . I have changed property xpinstall.signatures.required to false in about:config.I am able to install the plugin but its not showing on tool bar and this is the warning I am getting could not be verified for use in Firefox.Is there any way I can test my plugin without signature?

  • *"I have changed property xpinstall.signatures.required to false in about:config.I am able to install the plugin"* so where's the problem? – the8472 Dec 18 '15 at 07:03

  • The warning is just a warning for installing an unverified extension. Are you sure that you don't have any error on command prompt? – Christos Papoulas Dec 18 '15 at 11:07

  • You have to get it signed, by either uploading it to addons.moziila.org as a listed or unlisted addon. Or you can use the self-sign API - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Distribution – Noitidart Dec 20 '15 at 12:59
