How to manage styles

How to manage styles

Click on the Stylish icon and choose Manage Styles. This screen will list the styles you have installed. You can edit your styles to give it a different name or to modify its behaviour. You can disable styles, which will keep them in your list but make that have no effect, and re-enable them. You can also uninstall styles, which will remove their effects and remove them from the list.

How to turn off all styles

Sometimes it's useful to turn off all styles to see if a style is causing a problem with the display of the site. Rather than disabling all styles or disabling Stylish itself, you can tell Stylish to turn everything off by clicking the Stylish icon and choosing Turn all styles off. To turn them back on, click on the Stylish icon and choose Turn all styles on.

User styles explained

User styles are pieces of code that affect the way websites and the interface of certain programs look and feel. User styles can do things like remove ads, provide a different colour scheme, and change fonts.
Programs that support user styles

Mozilla-based programs like Firefox and Thunderbird can use Stylish to manage their user styles. This is the recommended way to use user styles. When used in Mozilla-based programs, user styles can also affect the program's user interface.
Mozilla-based programs also provide built-in support for user styles with the userContent.css and userChrome.css files. There is no user interface to these files, so managing multiple user styles is difficult. Additionally, you must restart the program every time you add, change, or remove user styles. This is why Stylish is recommended.
Other web browsers such as Internet Explorer and Opera support user styles, but do not have interfaces for them either. They do not allow user styles to change the program user interface.
