About this extension
Give each website or development environment its own address bar colors, so you can tell them apart at a glance.
  • Customize both the background and text colors.
  • Choose colors with the color picker or enter HEX codes.
  • Use automatic contrast to keep text readable.
  • Match websites with simple masks: example.com for a site, .example.com for its subdomains, or example.com/admin/ for a section.
  • Use * for any number of characters and ? for one character. No regular expressions required.
  • Choose Hostname RegExp (advanced) when you need regular expressions. Existing rules keep working as before.
  • Arrange rules by priority—the first matching rule applies.
  • Set default colors for pages that do not match any rule.
  • Colors update automatically when you navigate, switch tabs, or save settings.
  • Each Firefox window uses colors for its own active tab.
  • Open the extension popup to see the current hostname, matching rule, and colors.

Getting started:
  1. Click the extension icon, then Configure rules.
  2. Add a rule, keep URL mask (simple) selected, enter a mask such as example.com, and choose your colors.
  3. Click Save settings.

Privacy:
  • All rules are checked locally.
  • Settings stay in your Firefox profile.
  • No accounts, tracking, analytics, or network requests.

Firefox limitations:
  • The same colors also affect the Find in Page field (Ctrl+F).
  • Applying colors may change parts of your current theme, including its background image.
  • Other extensions that change the browser theme may interfere with these colors.
