alternative to classic theme restore extension

[Eckard]

I inserted into the Chrome folder, userChrome.css file, but nothing changed.

Did you drag your chrome (with a lower case c) folder into the Firefox profile folder ?

Did you restart Firefox?

It's all good now. Just had to move the code up, somewhat. Any ideas on the tabs curved look?

[Eckard]

Sorry, no idea.

EDIT:
Try this code:

Code: Select all

.tab-background {
border-radius: 16px 16px 0px 0px !important;
border-image: none !important; }

.tab-line {
display: none; }

.tab-line {

Awesome awesome, that did it. Thanks a bunch!

This is how my userChrome.css looks like:
/* tabs on bottom */
#navigator-toolbox toolbar:not(#nav-bar):not(#toolbar-menubar) {-moz-box-ordinal-group:10}
/* Search Bar width */
.searchbar-textbox {
max-width: 500px !important;
min-width: 300px !important; }
.tab-background {
border-radius: 16px 16px 0px 0px !important;
border-image: none !important; }

.tab-line {
display: none; }
#TabsToolbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group:1000!important}?

This works for me also. Appreciate it, thank you.

I also want to give a big THANK YOU to Aris for his development and support of Classic Theme Restorer over the years. Man that was one helleva add-on. RESPECT

Open Notepad and then copy/paste the following code:

Code: Select all

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

#TabsToolbar {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 2;
}
#nav-bar {
border-top-width: 0px !important;
}

Save is as userChrome.css and then place it in a folder called chrome located in your Firefox Profile. If the chrome folder isn't present create a folder by that name and then copy or move the userChrome.css file to that folder. To find your profile hit Windows key + R and then copy/paste the following string and click OK %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

To test it disable Classic Theme Restorer and restart Firefox.

For what it's worth, this one worked in Linux Ubuntu with 57

On a reboot of the system and opening Firefox 57 the code above had a side affect by placing the bookmarks toolbar above the nav bar.
Eckard's post on page two resolved the issue.
Best guess is due to the Unity menu bar.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gateke ... s.only.xul");
/* Nav bar above */
#nav-bar {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important; }

/* Personal toolbar in the middle */
#PersonalToolbar {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important; }

/* Tabs below */
#TabsToolbar {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 3 !important; }

Many thanks to you all in this thread.

I've just updated Firefox to v57 on my laptop after a re-installation of Windows 10 and having the tabs below the Bookmarks toolbar has always been a strong preference for me. I found this thread after doing a Google search re Classic Theme Restorer for v57

I tried Reflective's code first but I found that, although the tabs had moved down, the bookmarks had moved up to immediately below the Menu bar and above the Navigation bar! Unfortunately, I am not familiar enough with coding to see why.

I have found the solution using Eckard's version of code, plus the additional code for the rounded tabs corners, so thank you so much, Eckard, for posting your code. Absolutely brilliant.

So, thanks to the original poster for instigating this thread and thanks to all the other posters for contributing to such an effective end, but especially Reflective and Eckard, of course

I use this code to put the tabs at the bottom.
I had issues in the past with the Bookmarks Toolbar and this code has always worked for me to prevent that.

Code: Select all

#navigator-toolbox toolbar:not(#nav-bar):not(#toolbar-menubar) {-moz-box-ordinal-group:10}
#TabsToolbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group:1000!important}

Sorry for asking in this old thread:
This worked always but now with Fx 65 the tabs are on top now
As I do not understand the css code what can I change to get the tabs at the bottom again?

Thanks.

You could start a new thread.

Firefox 65 changed the structure of the top part of the UI. See:

https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx/issues/164

If your modifications are very light, you can combine the rules of these two files:

https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSfor ... oolbar.css

https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSfor ... r_fx65.css

If you have other UI-area customizations, it's probably better to take the whole package.

Thank you.
I hope I understand all your links
