Dark Theme

Dark Mode used to work beautifully in Firefox. Today it stopped working. I can choose Dark Mode in the settings page, and the settings page itself then uses Dark Mode. But Dark Mode does not work in any of the other pages, only the settings page. I think it must be a flaw in an update that was installed automatically today. (September 7, 2021)

Is there a way to uninstall this update and go back to the previous version. Dark Mode used to work beautifully and Firefox was my favorite browser. Can someone help? Thanks.

Hi, could you describe what you've set so far? For example,

(1) Theme - using the Dark theme. See: Built-in themes in Firefox - alternative to complete themes

(2) Another setting?

Firefox would normally detect your system theme as a cue for whether to apply a dark theme. There is an override for that which you could experiment with. (Apologies for the old screenshots.)

WARNING: Changing preferences through this interface not officially supported Hidden settings edited using the about:config tool are explicitly not supported, which means that Mozilla makes no guarantees they will be supported in the future, or that Mozilla will fix them if they break.

(A) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(B) In the search box, type or paste ui.systemUsesDarkTheme

(C) Firefox should display a bar with some radio buttons to choose a new preference type, followed by a + button. Choose Number and click the + button:

(D) Edit the value to either 0 (Light) or 1 (Dark) and then click the blue check mark button or press Enter/Return to save the change.

You should noticed a change immediately on the about:config page.

Hi.

I went to Settings / Manage more settings / Extensions and themes. I enabled the built-in Dark theme. But the opening page and all all pages open up with a light theme, except for the Settings page only.

Thanks.

It is the background that is not going to black. I went into "Settings", "General", down to "Language and Appearance", "Colors". I changed the "Text" color to White and the "Background" color to Black. All is good now but I also have my system in High Contrast mode as always. For whatever reason Firefox is ignoring that I am in High Contrast mode. If you don't run the system in High Contrast mode, you can change the "Override the colors specified by the page with your selections above" with "Always" instead of the "Only with High Contrast themes".
