Stop Firefox from blocking already installed add-ons?
So I was using Firefox and saw a cool photo on this website and wanted to use the "Heart Button" which is an add-on from Weheartit that allows you to save images you like to your own WHI gallery, but I couldn't find it anywhere, and when I checked the Add-ons Manager to see what the problem was, all my add-ons were disabled because of this add-on signing thing! I don't have many add-ons and the ones I have I use a lot and haven't encountered any malware problems yet so I don't see why they should be disabled. Are there anything I can do about this?

Experimental Features
^ Think you can help me out?
Are you using the 41 Beta version for a specific reason? Firefox 40 warns, but doesn't block.
Already installed or not Mozilla is going to block them if they are not signed. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Addons/Extension_Signing as of this morning there has been a push-back on actual blocking: Firefox 41 and 42: Firefox will have a preference that allows signature enforcement to be disabled (xpinstall.signatures.required in about:config).
So in Firefox 41 you can toggle the xpinstall.signatures.required pref to false on the about:config page.
pinterest already made an updated and signed version of its addon available at: https://about.pinterest.com/browserbutton you'll have to contact weheartit.com and ask them to do the same...
The above posted link doesn't work for me, but this one works:
Thanks for all the help, I just left them a message on their site, hopefully something can be done :(
