So, today I just installed openSUSE LEAP 42.2on my Desktop. I’m relatively new to openSUSE, but Fedora which I am already accustomed to completely refused to make a Livedisc and install properly on my Desktop, so since openSUSE uses GNOME and I’m comfortable with it, I decided to give it a try.
But, there’s a problem. I can’t get the GNOME Shell Extensions website to notice that GNOME Tweak Tool is even on the PC. Even though I don’t think that system specs are needed here, i’ll toss them in just to be sure.
CPU: i5-6600k Overclocked to 4.5Ghz at 1.35v
GPU: GTX 1070
RAM: 32GB
OS: openSUSE 42.1 64-Bit
Storage: 700 GB HDD that holds openSUSE and all it’s files. 120 GB SSD Boots Windows and has some files. 1TB HDD Windows main Storage.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue? I love some of the GNOME Extensions I have on my Fedora Laptop, but I can’t find a solution to my problem.

I see similar behavior on a new Leap install.
You can use the gnome extensions that come with Leap, but not add other extensions directly from extensions.gnome.org.
In my case, openSUSE Leap, browser Firefox 52.0.1 (64bit), installed tonight. On a previously installed Leap machine (with the same browser version ), this still remains working fine. Not so much on a new install through which keeps throwing the message that " native host connector" is not detected.
This may be with the NPAPI plugin support for FF 52 that was dropped I guess. References on the web on how to resolve this, I have not yet gotten to work…

Hi Jim,

Hi
Install epiphany and use that instead for extensions, easiest
solution…
