Modifying OcUK

Augmented · 9 Jun 2006 at 11:05

No, just zip up with the same files/structure as the original, and rename to .xpi if necessary.

thanks

ok im really confused as to what I have to do to get this working. I've installed greasemonkey and I've created the usercontent file based on the code in the first post. I've also installed the extension.

At the moment the forums are the different colour - but I'm not sure where I need to go to change where the images are?

aye, same here fini...can't seem to get rid of the images

that greasemonkey php thing is just giving me a white background with white text too

Bump because I created an SVN repository for the extension and I'm going to start working on it again now that I have more time

Code:

svn co http://svn.robm.me.uk/ocukbb/trunk/

Just source. Run build.bat to build the XPI as well as a directory that you can use with Firefox's dynamic extension loading. To dynamically load the extension, create a text file called

Code:

[email protected]

in your profile/extensions directory, which should look be:

Code:

%appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[b]some string of letters[/b]\extensions

In it, simply put the full path to the build directory that the build script generates (in my case, C:\firefox\ocuk\build). When you start Firefox, it'll load the extension; simply restart Firefox whenever you update your source from the repository.

rob, can't you make it so that it doesn't break Firefox if you have the ocuk forum extension installed?

I'd like to use both, but it just wont have it as they both use "OcUK" in the toolbar.

robmiller · 3 Jul 2006 at 19:16

Why install both if they both do the same thing :confused:

If you just want a menu, use the menu extension, if you want the rest install this.

Deathwish · 3 Jul 2006 at 19:38

meh, just thought it would be easier than having people wonder whats going on when it completely breaks FireFox.

I do see your point, im not stupid

Xinn · 3 Aug 2006 at 00:28

Edit: Ignor me, i've done it

Gibbs · 4 Aug 2006 at 12:17

right i have put the text into the ccs file userChrome.css file, restarted firefox and nothing changes.

Any thoughts?

robmiller · 4 Aug 2006 at 12:22

userContent.css, not userChrome.css

Gibbs · 4 Aug 2006 at 12:24

White with all images adblocked = office mode.

Blame cyk and IRC.

georges · 14 Jan 2007 at 00:26

Bit of a bump, but would you be able to post the css for the SA copy?

Cheers.

robmiller · 14 Jan 2007 at 01:37

Don't have it anymore, sorry

I'll have a bash at recreating it.

georges · 14 Jan 2007 at 01:41

Ah, don't worry if you have to put effort in

Thanks though

robmiller · 14 Jan 2007 at 01:49

Nah it's fine

Here you go:

Code:

@-moz-document domain(forums.overclockers.co.uk) {
	/*
	** OcUK colour scheme changer 
	** By Rob Miller
	*/
	* { color:#000 !important; }
	textarea, input { background:#ddd !important; }
	body, .page, .thead, .tfoot, .alt2, .alt2Active, .panel { background-color: #fff !important; }
	.alt1, .alt1Active, .panelsurround, .vbmenu_option { background-color: #fff !important; }

}

Nice work. This zombie is still going

What would I do with opera then mate? Or should I bite the bullet and join the firefox masses?
