Thread + Code snippets (for Stylish) on Neowin thread

It is pretty nice indeed :)

yup, it's pretty sweet. just needs a few more options instead of using these stylish hacks. but i'm sure that will all be sorted soon.
 
Pros:

Refresh button is in the proper place this time.

Cons:

Bookmarks toolbar is MASSIVE and not transparent. Clearly for OCD people who have everything hidden.

Bookmarks button is not a drop-down

Stop button is still annoying. If you click it just as the page loads you click the button after it.

> The bar is no bigger than the Strata theme version I find although I don't use the bar, it would be nice if it was Aero. You can use Stratabuddy instead of TwentyTenBuddy to get some more options though.

> Yes, it is, you probably have the wrong bookmarks button dragged onto the navbar:

> You probably have the stop and reload buttons the wrong way round in the customisation mode. It should be Stop first then Reload next to it.
 
Nope you can keep your existing profile, just create a FEBE backup (as you do regularly anyway NUDGE NUDGE!) so if something does happen a profile restore is 3 clicks away.

Heck I uninstalled Firefox 3.6 beta5 the other day and installed daily updates on the 3.7 Pre Alpha build and my profile was kept automagically - everything just /worked/ :)

when i installed strata and other add ons something messed up my firefox so i had to start again. of course it may not have been the theme that did it but more then just a theme change is needed as add ons are required to get it all working well.
 
components sometimes conflict. so you uninstall or disable them to find the culprit, not start a fresh profile. (well i've never had to :p)
 
easier to create a new profile? :eek:

download all my extensions.
configure each and every one of those extensions.
import my bookmarks.
re-arrange my toolbars.
configure all my usual firefox options.
lose all my cookies for sites i'm currently signed in to?

all that is easier than disabling a component and restarting firefox? you're off your ****** trolley. :D

You can transfer those too; a theme isn't going to touch places.sqlite so you could likely copy your history and bookmarks without the export/import step.

Still, the most you should have to do is nuke prefs.js in your profile (if it sets some obtuse setting that stops the browser starting up); safe mode will take care of themes and extensions...
 
That's a bit weird, you probably have an extension conflict, post your extensions screenshot!

You don't need a glasser extension with this as it has aero built into TwnetyTenBuddy.
