Yeah I had posted a long, detailed explanation in the ThinkPad thread, but I think it got deleted.
Short summary: Every Firefox theme is created differently. So there's really no universal method to fix every theme for W8Classic. What it comes down to is editing the theme's CSS and removing any styling for Windows Aero. There are two versions of the default Firefox theme: Standard, and Aero. The Aero version obviously contains the styling for Aero/DWM windows, while the Standard version contains styling for windows without composition (such as basic and classic windows). All I had to do to fix the default Firefox theme for W8Classic was package the Standard version of the default theme into its own xpi file.

its installed tabs are on bottom but they are still round and not square its an xpi issue

Well I also like my tabs more squared. I'll look into this when I am able to test on a Windows 8 or Windows 10 VM.

Oh wow, well that doesn't look too good. I'll see if I can fix it.
However, I fear that whatever I do might be a short-term fix. Starting with Firefox 57, Mozilla will be killing off XUL extensions in favor of Google Chrome style webkit extensions, meaning that addons like Classic Theme Restorer are going to be unusable. Due to the nature of webkit extensions, it is unlikely that an alternative can ever be created.
Now, while most Firefox themes are not based on XUL (if any are) I am currently unsure if Mozilla plans to continue supporting complete themes. We'll just have to wait and see.

There are other problems with newer Firefox versions (before 55): * The icon in the address bar is shifted: * The text on the buttons in dialogs becomes white on mouse hover * The buttons (of bookmarks) on the sidebar lost 3D look on hover. Now no selection indication at all. These problems appeared in recent versions of Firefox.

Well I have just installed Firefox 55 beta 6 and I have no problems with the titlebar. Works just as FF 54. The only new problem I've noticed is two refresh buttons and all buttons having the same tooltips: P.S. I use the Classic Theme Restorer extension.

I probably just have to package Firefox 55's non-Aero theme into its own XPI file. I'll do that when I get the chance, but I'll leave the original version of the theme up for anyone who wants it. If there are still issues with it, I'll see what I can do to fix them.

i use Firefox version 57 and it looks very strange. do you have a fix or an other theme? Mozilla killed complete themes with Firefox 57, so no. It might still be possible by playing with userChrome.css, but I haven't messed with that enough yet.

How about making a fix for the Default Theme in Pale Moon?

Post by R.O.B. on Feb 9, 2018 17:11:04 GMT -8
Alright, I've added a fix for Pale Moon to the first post.
I'll see about updating the Firefox theme for 56 and 52esr when I get the chance.
