Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 15117876, 4 years agoI am amazed at the very useful and unique features.
Taking into account the knowledge of the developers, I thought about the following.
The Chrome Extensions web store has the following extensions:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/simpleextmanager/kniehgiejgnnpgojkdhhjbgbllnfkfdk
Add-ons like this,
Can you create it as a Firefox version of Extension Shortcut Manager?
I want to ask you.
Currently in the Chrome Web Store.
I think this is the only add-on that doesn't exist in the Firefox web store.
This is one of the biggest reasons to hesitate to use Firefox on a regular basis.
I thought it might be possible with the knowledge of the developer.
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply to the review.
We cannot reply due to system reasons.
It's an honor just to see it.
I'm not a programmer, But
Personally, I learned a little JavaScript for efficiency.
It's ridiculously difficult.
I think the developers who are visibly active are great.

posted 4 years agoThanks for the review! We'll take a look at the Chrome extension, but our plates are pretty full at the moment.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Tanner, 3 months agoI liked it but I wish I could cycle through a select group of themes.
Developer response
posted 3 months agoI would too! I'm thinking of writing a difference add-on to create those groups so Thematic doesn't become too complicated. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18440096, 5 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Lance Esgard, 10 months agoEssential if you like to use a bunch of different themes.
Would be nice if it could also have some sort of scheduler, so instead of just rotating themes on each launch, you could define a specific 'playlist' to be used say for day vs night, or for different months.Developer response
posted 10 months agoGreat idea! I've been thinking of another extension that would do this. Have categories etc. Work for the future. Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Cukis, 2 years ago

posted 3 years agoThanks for the review, but sorry: I don't understand the question.- Rated 5 out of 5by Flaming Fox, 3 years agoThanks for this extension!
To hide a bunch of new themes imposed by Mozilla, you need to create the browser.theme.colorways.enabled parameter (logical, false) and restart the browser.Developer response
posted 3 years agoThanks for the pointer! That's a much cleaner way to remove them, but it doesn't seem to work for me at the moment. I'll poke around some more. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16321593, 4 years agoEDIT: Thanks for the Alpenglow fix!!!
I've been using this extension for a while now and it works beautifully! - Rated 5 out of 5by Kelly, 4 years agoI love this extension. It makes me happy. The only thing that would be better, would be a way to maybe checkmark certain ones to rotate from, so that I'm not rotating all my off seasons, christmas, fall, winter, etc, in summer. Thanks developer!
- Rated 5 out of 5by oellchen, 4 years agoBest automatic theme changer for ages if you like to have many different themes automatically switched :)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Arragon99, 5 years agoWorks fine since years, the only and the best addon for the required task.
Optionrequest:
Would it be possible to add the feature to create a list of all installed themes to be able to copy the list into the clipboard. I would like to archive the list of managed themes in case of browser or system crashes. - Rated 5 out of 5by Steveaux, 5 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Chesshur, 5 years agoI no longer use Firefox. Instead I use Waterfox Classic which is very similar to Firefox 56 due to the fact that I despise what Mozilla had done to FF over the years. I would like to continue to use this extension, however it is a hassle having to sit and wait for WF to unhang every time it switches themes (this happens because I have a sheer amount of themes I've collected over the years since their inception), plus the default shortcut Cntrl+Alt+A interferes with the Colorful Tabs extension so it will not work since you did not make it possible to set a custom shortcut in the options. Waterfox Classic DOES NOT have the "MANAGE EXTENSION SHORTCUTS" option since it is basically a clone of Firefox 56 so I can't do that. I will be sticking with the old 4.0.5 version of Personas Switcher until it is made fully compatible with Waterfox Classic.

posted 5 years agoThanks for the details of your review! The move to a web extensions based version initially remove our ability to customize the keyboard shortcuts. We have plans to look at several major upgrades in the coming months and that is on the list.
As a followup, one can update the shortcut in Firefox, not through any individual extension. Under about:addons settings, choose Manage Extension Shortcuts and choose the shortcuts you want. - Rated 5 out of 5by taro, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by tinyfamily, 6 years agoPlease do not discontinue. I love my personas and would be glad to pay for this extension to be able to make my firefox pretty. The personas is making Firefox beautiful to use. This customization feature is only available here in Firefox and is the only reason I HAVE USED FIREFOX SINCE 2011.
