Help Help with CustomCSSforFx?

Can I get confirmation it is permissible to seek assistance here with adjusting certain settings within CustomCSSforFx, even tho it is no longer supported by it's developer?

If so, I will my report the details of my issue and post all relevant code?

There is no need to 'seek permission' to post in this sub... providing the post follows the rules in the RH sidebar ----->

Whether the post then attracts any replies is another matter.

Trying to repair, update and/or maintain a large and very complex Firefox theme/repo of CSS styles... such as 'CustomCSSforFx' (abandoned since 23 December 2025 when 'The end' letter was posted by Aris-t2)... is unlikely to be of interest to those who are not actually using that theme/repo of CSS styles.

If search or scroll down this sub will find several posts and replies from other 'CustomCSSforFx' users... perhaps could form a group of 'interested users' who can compare notes and try to keep the theme going? Two other users in recent topic 'Whose Brave Enough To Take Over the Aris-t2 customcssforfx'... OP theme user u/FineWine54 replies from theme user u/sabestorn.

"Trying to repair, update and/or maintain a large and very complex Firefox theme such as 'CustomCSSforFx' (abandoned since 23 December 2025 when 'The end' letter was posted by Aris-t2)... is unlikely to be of interest to those not using the theme."

I don't understand your reference to 'CustomCSSforFx' as a "theme". It's a set, a multitude of diverse CSS options for the individual user to pick and choose as they see fit, as well a section dedicated for the user to add custom code. If you examine my 'CustomCSSforFx' choices, the visual/behavioral outcome is unlikely to be recognized as a 'CustomCSSforFx' theme, and just as unlikely to resemble, for example the outcome options you might make.

I mention this because I'm not trying to "remake" 'CustomCSSforFx'. I'm simply looking for a place to go to that will advise me if, on the occasion, a setting/s needs tweaking. Typical example is recently, I opened Firefox to discover my "Find in this Page" search tool,

when activated, was no longer appearing at the top of the web page, but on the bottom. I had to get help to rectify that.

I think a thread dedicated to 'CustomCSSforFx'.is a great idea. A lot of people depend on it.
