install for all users, Rocky 9.2, gnome 40.10, gnome.classic desktop not working?

[lerroot]

Hi-

Rocky 9.2, gnome-classic, Rocky9 GNOME Shell 40.10, installed from dash-to-panel@jderose9.github.com_v62.zip from github- does not appear to work.

Followed instructions here:
https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/customizing_the_gnome_desktop_environment/enabling-and-enforcing-gnome-shell-extensions_customizing-the-gnome-desktop-environment#enabling-system-wide-gnome-shell-extensions_enabling-and-enforcing-gnome-shell-extensions

and renamed the dir to match UUID (dropped the _v62 suffix)

I tried running this: gnome-extensions prefs dash-to-panel@jderose9.github.com
which got me this UI:

I clicked on "Technical Details" and got this:

SyntaxError: import declarations may only appear at top level of a module

What am I doing wrong? Does it work with GUI "gnome-classic.desktop"? Thank you.

EDIT: would someone be able to tell me on this page:
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1160/dash-to-panel/
what shell version (assuming 40 as gnome-classic Shell 40.10) and extension versions i should be selecting from both pulldowns? thank you.

does this extension have any application for gnome-classic.desktop? thank you.

[lerroot]

would someone be able to recommend any extensions to manipulate the task and menu bars for gnome-classic.desktop?
