aminomancer / uc.css.js

A dark indigo CSS theme for Firefox and a large collection of privileged scripts to add new buttons, menus, and behaviors and eliminate nuisances. The theme is similar to other userChrome stylesheets, but it's intended for use with an autoconfig loader like fx-autoconfig, since it uses JavaScript to implement its more functional features.

How to install aboutuserchrome script? #65

Closed bege10 closed 1 year ago

Hello, I use some of your helpful scripts and would like to use the new update functionality. But I don't understand how to install it.

Get this folder resources/aboutuserchrome and put it in your chrome/resources folder. Then get this file and put it in your chrome/JS folder. Then restart and enter about:userchrome in the urlbar. Does that not work?

I eventually managed to at least not get an error when entering about:userchrome. But it showed a blank page and one of my other favorite scripts did not work any more with fx-autoconfig. I used them with this script loader: https://github.com/Endor8/userChrome.js#userchrome-scripte----verwendung-in-firefox Because I don't want to miss this script and perhaps some of the others are not compatible with about:userchrome I decided to waive the automatic script update. Thanks anyway.

The script manager relies on many of the features provided by fx-autoconfig. It should show an error message that fx-autoconfig is required and offer a download link. If your scripts aren't compatible with fx-autoconfig, you could ask their author(s) to make their scripts compatible. Should be pretty easy
