Not working when Installed to Firefox 69.0

Open Sheoke opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

Hello,

I have been using this successfully on another computer where I installed it for Firefox V65 I think. I have upgraded it to V69 and it still works ok there. However on this desktop pc that I have just upgraded Firefox from V29 to Quantum V69 and it doesn't it after restarting. I have double-checked the profile folder location and the .css file is definitely in it. Any suggestions?

Kind regards, Ian

I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions, other than this: a whole new Firefox installation, followed by the CSS installation?

Thanks for your quick reply Frank. Yes, I suppose I could back up my profile and do that. I’ll give it a go. Many thanks, Ian

I had the same problem, and apparently starting in FireFox 69.0 userChrome.css and userContent.css are disabled by default:

They can be re-enabled by going to about:config and setting the 'toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets' preference to true.

The link above has instructions on how to do this.

After enabling this setting, everything is working for me.

Best,

Thank you very much, Ranga! I didn't know that, but shall add that to the code.

Thanks Ranga and Frank. I look forward to the change. With the current userChrome.css the tabs are still square. Cheers, Ian

Hey Ian,

I should have written: "I shall add that to the instructions." Which I already did. See under 'Preparations before installation', item 3. The .css file stays the same.

Gday Frank,

I followed your instructions to the letter, setting 'toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets' preference to true, and copying the .css file again, but the tabs are still square and have a thick black line along the top in the Silky Blue theme. Odd that it works on my Dell laptop but not on my desktop. Both running FF69. Cheers, Ian

That's odd. I'm afraid I don't know how what the cause of that is. Hopefully someone else will, at some point.
