If you already are using Firefox 3.6 betas then you probably already figured that some of your add-ons are not working...because of their compatibility.

Well, to be honest not every add-on needs a huge code change, some of them simply need their compatibility status updated, most of them work with 3.6 anyway. At least mine do...

I wanted Identi.fox and Echofon running, which I way I turned of the Extension Compatibility Check! Here's how to force your Add-ons to work with 3.6+ betas.

1. Type "about:config" in your Firefox url bar
2. Search for "extensions.checkCompatibility.3.6b"
3. If you have this entry change it from "true" to "false"
4. If this entry doesn't exist, create it via:
5. Right click your mouse -> "new" -> "boolean"
6. Type in "extensions.checkCompatibility.3.6b" for the new entry and set it to false

This is how it looks finally:

Enjoy your add-ons, but bear in mind there's a reason that the add-on compatibility check is there!
