Firefox Community Forum

An Add-on (a theme) I've been using, Graphite Grace by compilan, has been removed with the following message:

"This add-on is blocked for violating Mozzila's policies and has been disabled".

As a user, I feel I have the right to know what policies were violated, and whether the add-on was indeed malicious as well as what data may have been compromised. Where can I get that information?

As of 12/9/25, Firefox seems to now prevent Theme add-ons from working if there is a contrast setting configured in Windows configuration. (Version 146.0) Previously, this allowed a very aesthetically pleasing view. I would greatly enjoy having that option again. Thank you.

I can not get rid of the pink background in the address bar, search box or background space of yahoo mail. I can not find the revert to default theme as previous post from several years ago suggested as a solution.

Good Day,

I am leaving Brave as my default browser for Firefox.... Brave is good, just would prefer Firefox. I used to love it.

The problem is...I have a theme on Brave and Chrome that I love dearly. Is there a way to bring that theme to Firefox? I tried using Firefox Color, but it looked awful.

PS: I am the tech Village Idiot so please talk to me in that vein ;)

Thank you and Warmest Regards, Alisa (Stormwolfe)

I am unable to remove add on themes. The remove button is not provided. Only manage which enables the theme. I do not want these themes and want them removed now. mac ios

Best regards,

At the beginning of 2025, I created a private theme and installed it locally (Windows 10), consisting of a manifest.json and a GIF file. It worked perfectly. Now, on Windows 11, I'm trying to use the theme again, but when I upload the file (.zip or .xpi — via about:addons -> Install Add-on From File), I always get the message that the file is corrupted. However, if I test it temporarily under about:debugging, it works immediately without any issues.

I would really appreciate a solution! <3

I have literally over 200 tabs open at a time and recover them every time I reboot Firefox, but they are very disorganized. Is there a good way to organize them, for example, group related tabs together?

Dear Mozilla Support Team,

I am writing to report an issue I have consistently encountered while using the Firefox browser. Whenever I log into my Mozilla account, the custom theme I have selected for Firefox is reset to the default theme. This necessitates manually re-selecting my preferred theme each time I log in.

This issue is a minor inconvenience, but it disrupts my user experience. I would appreciate it if you could investigate this behavior. I am using the latest version of Firefox on Windows 11 Pro.

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to a resolution.

Sincerely,

Hi, I rebooted Firefox today because a website was frozen, and when it came back, it was asking for a troubleshoot or just continue, and I don't know exactly what that meant, but when I clicked on refresh, everything was changed, including the theme. And then when I tried to restore the theme back to the original it said, add-ons are disabled by safety, and I don't know what that means, and it's not explaining how to undo it. And now everything looks different and I'm not happy with it, and it's not really letting me add any other themes, and if I add them, they don't seem to fully load, the page still looks all white

I have installed an animated theme for my home page a while back, but recently if I minimize firefox the memory usage increases until it freezes my pc completely. I know this issue has been reported as Bug 1828587 2 years ago and it is said that it is fixed, but here I am experiencing the same thing. I would appreciate any help since I am not that good at coding a css file. Here is my userContent.css code if maybe i set something up wrong:

@-moz-document url("about:newtab"), url("about:home"), url(about:privatebrowsing) {

   /* Sets background image and autoscale image to browser window. */
   body {
       background-image: url("wallpapers/wallpaper.avif") !important;
       background-size: cover !important;
       background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
       background-attachment: fixed !important;
       background-position-x: center !important;
       background-position-y: bottom !important;
   }

   @-moz-document url("about:newtab"), url("about:home") {
       .top-site-outer .title {
           color: white !important;
       }

       .logo-and-wordmark .wordmark {
           fill: white !important;
           color: #00aaff !important; /* fallback for text */
       }

       .context-menu-button.icon {
           fill: white !important; /* for SVG-based icons */
           color: white !important; /* for any text-based fallback */
           opacity: 1 !important; /* ensure visible even when normally dimmed */
       }
   }

The second part is to make some of the text on my homepage white so it is visible.

i am unable to see my installed themes and therefore can not use them. the only thing that i can see is "extensions" and "plugins". i looked online for a few hours and have found no solutions that work.

I’m at my wits’ end with this. Firefox keeps forcing a system-synced theme at launch, and it flat-out refuses to respect the settings I’ve configured — both in about:config and via a custom user.js file.

Here’s what I’ve tried:

• Set layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override to 0 in about:config → it reverts back to 2 after every restart.

• Created a user.js with user_pref("layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override", 0); → completely ignored.

• Disabled all sync options, including themes.

• Verified that no active studies are interfering.

• Double-checked that I’m not syncing across devices.

• Tried applying a specific theme and setting it manually — still overridden at launch.

No matter what I do, Firefox insists on syncing the theme to the system’s dark/light setting. I want my browser theme independent from the OS — period.

Is there a deeper setting I’m missing? A hidden override? Some service that’s reapplying the system setting post-launch? This feels like Firefox is actively fighting me — and it's infuriating.

Would appreciate any insight or workaround. I just want full manual control over my theme. Why is that so hard?

Your themes aren't working right and for some reason the bookmarks sidebar has gone dark, and MY theme which I created is no longer available. The toolbar up top loses the icons for back space, forward, home, and refresh and I constantly have to re enable the theme to make them reappear. This is getting tiresome and needs fixing.

Turns out you cant use your own stuff until it is approved, Sorry for this question I am absolutely new to firefox workshop. Case closed (Please delete it because I couldn't find how to do that)
