Hi:

I'm trying to set a dark theme in Firefox because my right click menu is a blinding white and my web pages are as well.

I've tried these instructions:

Tap on the F12 key to open the Developer Tools.
Select the settings icon in the top right corner of the screen.
Locate and check "Enable browser chrome and add-on debugging toolboxes".
Alternatively, set devtools.chrome.enabled to true on about:config.

Re started the browser and the system and still no joy.

I've also tried going to Mozilla Themes and attempted to add "Dark Reader" but when I try adding it to FF it takes me to the FF download.

I found the dark theme under Customize > Themes> and my Bookmarks Menus is now dark but my right click menu is still white.

I'm running FF 66.0.2.

Any help would be greatly appreciated:-

Have you looked in Tools-->Add-ons-->Get Add-ons-->Find More Add-ons-->Themes?

Yes I just tried that and the "Find More Add ons" makes the FF menu and the bookmarks menu dark. However; the right click menu is still blinding white.

Is there a way frankbell to force Dark Reader to work with Slack?

Do you mean slack as in https://slack.com/?

If so, have a look at https://github.com/laCour/slack-night-mode.

Essentially, install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/styl-us/ and add this style https://userstyles.org/styles/117475...ght-mode-black.

I think it's a toolkit theme responsible for that menu, not browser theme.

So I patch gtk+3 source code to replace this:

_colors.scss
gtk-contained.css
gtk-contained.scss

Check end result with "gtk3-demo"

It's not backward or forward compatible, have to repeat every time gtk+3 gets an upgrade.
Which is why I prefer gtk+2 themes.

I abbreviated Slackware with Slack-

I tried installing Stylus however in the attempt to install it just takes me to a page to download FF.

The second link 'Slack Night Mode' I'm not sure how to install.

I don't know how to apply patches elcore.....but thank you for trying to help me.

If gtk3-demo menu is the same color as your problem menu, simply changing gtk3 theme from "Adwaita" to some other theme could work.
Don't need to patch anything really, I patch my changes into sources directly because 3rd party themes sometimes break and I don't want wait for them to fix.
Maybe look into this too, for your websites. https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx

I'll give that a try Monday morning. Thanks-

I'm on a different Linux box right now.

I'm using XFCE and am having trouble finding the gtk3 conf file-

Looking here for now-

Do I need to install this?
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...mix-gtk-theme/

that answers my question

firefox uses my KDE custom Dark theme

mind you my gtk default theme is set to Adwaita-dark"

My Slackware system is set to XFCE-dusk and all of my menu's are dark. I'm happy with that.

What I'm not happy with is my right click menu in FF.

My FF menu and my bookmarks menu is dark.....I just don't get how to change the right click menu if FF.

Any clues?

I still suspect your browser theme colors the top menu, and not context menu (which is usually colored by gtk3), while your XFCE context menu is probably colored by gtk2.
Of course this is all my speculation without proof, since you won't provide any info on gtk-demo, gtk3-demo, XFCE version, or any screenshots of these tools and their respective menus.
UI's like a photograph, but you only show us inscription on the back which mentions a bug (and not the actual evidence of a bug).

The gtk-demo menu is black and the gtk3-demo menu is white.
I didn't know they were installed. I also didn't know they could only be launched via the cmd-line.

I'm running version 4.12 of XFCE.

If I try to change the color to black and close the window it reverts back to dark blue.
