Disable recommendations

more options

In my "Themes" section viewing the add-ons manager, I can view all the themes I have downloaded, and I would really like to disable the recommendations. They are not relevant to me, and they take up space and are a distraction from those I am interested in. Is there a way to disable the "Recommended Themes" section???

Hi Ryan, there is a preference for this, but it takes a little work to get to it:

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

More info on about:config: Configuration Editor for Firefox. The moderators would like us to remind you that changes made through this back door aren't fully supported and aren't guaranteed to continue working in the future.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste extensions.htmlaboutaddons.recommendations.enabled and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the preference to switch the value from true to false

Close out of the Add-ons page and reopen it to see the change.
