Heartripper, I've started a topic on your Script page...

http://forum.userstyles.org/discussion/25510/there-is-a-bug

Please check it whenever you have available time.

It should be fixed now!

Thanks but this code didn't fix the problem in my case. This is how FF looks adding this code:

senzatitolo1lg.jpg

and changing the height value seems irrilevant.

My code style:

/* Tab Fixes */

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #TabsToolbar
{ padding: 0px 110px 0 50px !important; }

#main-window[tabsontop="true"]
{ margin-top: -17px !important; }

.tabbrowser-tab[fadein]:not([pinned])
{ max-width: 200px !important; }

.tabbrowser-tab[fadein][pinned] 
{  margin-top: -0.2px !important; }

#tabbrowser-tabs[overflow="true"] .tabbrowser-tab[pinned] {
        height: 22px !important;
}

/* Menu Bar Fixes */

#main-window[tabsontop="true"] menubar 
{    margin-left: 48px !important; 
     padding-top: 0px !important; }

Please put the full code of your style so we can analyze it. Or all styles, if you use more than one.

It should be fixed now!

Please, check it again... Additional bugs/informations! :/

Any way to make it look like ie9?

I'm pretty sure, in a while there will be available as a Theme by someone... You just have to wait...

Like-Chrome already there is... Not 100% perfect yet, but not bad at all... It's the first version.

Please put the full code of your style so we can analyze it. Or all styles, if you use more than one.

how can I get my add-ons in location bar like this

I use useChromejs 1.3 with the following code:

var nsI = document.getElementById("noscript-tbb")

var gmS = document.getElementById("gm-status")
var gmM = document.getElementById("gm-status-popup")
var stY = document.getElementById("stylish-toolbar-button")

urlbar.insertBefore(stY, go)

This worked for me but just for one time. It vanished when i restart firefox. It works again when i remove gm-status-popup.

Where can i find extension ids? I want to put other ones like webmail or foxyproxy.

I dont understand where to put js code after installed the add-on.

Is there a way to remove the favcons from the tabs? And is there a way to take some of the height off of the tabs/url bar area? I'm going for an extremely minimalist look, and most things I try from userstyles.org look awful in the release candidate.

Foxxyn8, what is the advantage of having the add-on icons within the url bar?

(I know that Chrome has some of them inside and some to the right of the omnibar and there's nothing the user can do to move them around because there's something about "page action" and "browser action" that determines whether extension icons show inside or outside Chrome's omnibox.)

I dont understand where to put js code after installed the add-on.

The code goes in userchrome.js which is located in the chrome folder of your firefox profile. If the file doesn't exist create it.

Make sure any toolbarbutton you want to relocate add is present on a toolbar. It gives me problems on occasion, usually when Fx "forgets" the location of the toolbarbutton and moves it back to the customization pallette. Also, if you're not using the same addons, it may not work. Remove the references to the ones you don't need.

You get the ids the same way as with css -- Dom Inspector.

Create a folder under your profile folder called "chrome" and create a text file under that folder called "userChrome.js". Add the code in that text file.

Hi man. I found a better way for it. It puts all the status bar instead of one or two extensions.

Try this code:

var urlbar = document.getElementById("urlbar-icons");
var go = urlbar.lastChild;

var stat = document.getElementById("status-bar");

urlbar.insertBefore(stat, go);

urlbar.insertBefore(stat, go);

That will work so long as the addon provides a status bar icon as opposed to a toolbar button, but the status bar is being phased out and only exists in its current form for legacy purposes.

Give this a try (replace your "Tab Fixes" section with this one):

I don't know that there's any advantage at all, it's just a personal preference. :).

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
