Where can I find the folder where all my themes are stored?

more options

I installed a few personas on my Firefox, but they just installed after I clicked "Install" from the web. I was wondering if I could find the actual theme files somewhere so that I could have it with me in case something happens to the website that was hosting them. I know that the files must be stored somewhere in my computer, but where could I find them?

Firefox only stores your current persona. It's in your profile folder, as the files lightweighttheme-header and lightweighttheme-footer.

Additional personas may be saved in your disk cache. To retrieve them,

  1. Type about:cache?device=disk in the address bar and press Enter. Warning: if you have a large disk cache, Firefox may stop responding temporarily or freeze altogether.
  2. Look for images from http://www.getpersonas.com/static/...
  3. Click an entry for detailed information, then click the key: link at the top to view the image.
  4. If it's the persona you want, right-click the image and choose Save Image As.

To find the links for images used by your installed personas,

  1. Type about:config in the address bar and press Enter.
  2. Press the big button to bypass the warning.
  3. In the search box, paste lightweightThemes.usedThemes
  4. In the search results, right-click lightweightThemes.usedThemes and choose Copy Value.
  5. Paste the clipboard contents into a text editor and examine them. headerURL and footerURL are the images used by personas.
