a simple startpage for Firefox with some pixelart.
(scroll down for instructions)
Place both chrome and startpage(or startpage_alt) in .mozilla/firefox/PROFILE/ to use them. You can get the location of your PROFILE dir in about:profiles. Set the startpage for Home in preferences and restart.
- the chrome dir contains 2 types of files.
-
userChrome.css and userContent.css for the UI and the default homepage respectively.
-
userChrome.xml and userChrome.js for setting the New tab page to a custom page.
If you are using FF 69+ you need to enable it first: about:config > toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets > true
- For the startpage: To enable the newtab startpage functionality open userChrome.js and then change const mypage = "file:///home/debasis/.mozilla/firefox/sawjo289.default-esr/startpage/index.html"; Put the path of your index.html in the quotation.
-
startpage dir contains the page without searchbox.
-
startpage_alt dir contains the page with searchbox.
Copy any one.
Also, you can uncomment the commnted lines in /startpage_alt/style.css to get some shadow effects.
Thats it. Enjoy.
