Please post the path to your current firefox profile. You can access it through Settings > Help > More Troubleshooting Information. For the extension to detect your profile, your profile should generally be in ~/.mozilla/firefox/. (You can change where the extension detects profiles) Your profile must end with either ".default-release", ".default", ".default-nightly", or ".dev-edition-default" for it to be detected. My profile ends with ".default-release".

I little word of warning if you do have it detect your profile. This extension expects a certain path to insert code into a file. (This may change as the plugin improves.) The contributors of Firefox GNOME Theme created problems within their installation scripts. Using auto-install.sh results in directories and files copied to the wrong locations where Firefox cannot detect as a theme because the CSS does not import to the right paths. Firefox GNOME Theme would not work entirely in that case. Manual user installation of Firefox GNOME Theme can lead to this extension not finding the path to customChrome.css required to change colors. Applying a color scheme in that case would have no effect. The easiest way was using install-by-curl.sh to install Firefox GNOME Theme. Gradience correctly applied its code to change color scheme.

firefox profile path = /home/aspizu/.mozilla/firefox/gyl6ooi5.default-release (this folder contains the chrome folder)

I found a potential problem: my profile directory is named 0vtfvjx9.default-release-1622669566561.

Okay, let's merge it. The biggest issue is that you changed the author name :/, what about beeing part of the team, so we can keep the current author ?

[aspizu]

Still does not work, does this need the app itself to be updated?

Oh, sorry. You need to wait the next release or to use flatpak from the github CI, or install from source
