Where is the userChrome.css file on Linux?

The profile folders are stored under "~/.moonchild productions" (i.e. a hidden folder named ".moonchild productions" inside your home directory, press Ctrl+H to see it in most file managers). The userChrome.css, would thus accordingly be located somewhere like:

Code: Select all

~/.moonchild productions/pale moon/xxxxxxx.default/chrome/userChrome.css
(if you are not using a non standard location for your profiles.)

In poking around this location, I noticed there is a folder named Chrome in ~/.moonchild productions/pale moon/xxxxxxx.default/indexedDB. Would not the userChrome.css file go there? I just want to be sure before I do anything. :)

"~/.moonchild productions/pale moon" seems to have the same layout as ~/.mozilla/firefox

I think it should be:

Code: Select all

    ~/.moonchild productions/pale moon/xxxxxxx.default/chrome/userChrome.css
since you seemed to have been missing the /chrome directory in the path.
It most definitely won't go in IndexedDB

As for adding it in the wrong location: won't cause issues, it just won't do anything. ;)

Yeah, that's what it should be. Updated previous post, thanks for spotting the error!
