Does not apply compact unified toolbar to Finder in Monterey v12.0.1

[wolfiefrick]

MEMiniMe running under MacForge v1.1.0 does not apply the compact unified toolbar size to the Finder. It is not present on the blacklist, either for the plugin itself or for MacForge globally, and it seems to work well with all other applications I've tested (System Preferences, Activity Monitor, Console, etc.)

I was unable to find any logs that indicated any errors, but if there is a place I can easily find them let me know and I will send them. Thanks.

I'm also having the same issue in Monterey 12.3.1. The compact toolbar works everywhere it's supposed to except for Finder and Safari, which were the two main apps I installed MEMiniMe for.
Is this project dead? MacForge shows it was updated in Nov 2021, but this repo hasn't been updated in over a year. Monterey clearly broke how it worked.

It works fine on Monterey 12.5.1. Depending on where you get your MacForge builds and if you've disabled Library Validation, your situation might be different.

Does this work for you in Safari?

yes, it does. Monterey 12.6.5 and Safari 16.4.1

Wow this would be so great. Could you share your plist? I'd not thrilled with installing MacForge...

It's not possible to share a plist for this as the plugin does it upon launch of apps; Injects into each app.

And MacForge handles the injection of its plugins.

Huh. I'm not sure how that works. Surprising that a temp plist doesn't exist somewhere though given the everything-is-a-file-nature-of-unix.

Well if you ever upgrade to Ventura let me know if it works and I'll totally suck it up and install MacForge.

Hey I think I've found the solution.
A reboot for your Mac is needed(make sure Macforge is allowed to start when login) and you'll find MEminime is working in Safari (version 17.0 with Monterey 12.7) but still not working in Finder. I think this is because Finder may start earlier than the injection of Macforge so you need to relaunch Finder manually. And fortunately it DO works!
