This is a userChrome.css for Firefox | |
that hides the vertical tab sidebar (used by Sidebery), | |
but only if Sidebery is enabled and the window title contains the "sidebery" preface. | |
Instructions: | |
1. Enable userChrome.css support and vertical tabs in Firefox: | |
1.1 Go to about:config | |
1.2 Set `toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets` to `true` | |
1.3 Set `sidebar.verticalTabs` to `true` (this enables vertical tabs support) | |
2. Enable Sidebery window title preface: | |
2.1 Open Sidebery settings | |
2.2 Navigate to *Help* | |
2.3 Set the *Preface value* to `sidebery` | |
and enable *Add preface to the browser window's title* | |
3. Create or update userChrome.css: | |
3.1 Open Firefox menu → Help → More Troubleshooting Information | |
3.2 Scroll to *Profile Folder* and open it | |
3.3 Inside the profile folder, create a `chrome` directory (if it doesn't exist) | |
3.4 Inside `chrome`, create or edit `userChrome.css` | |
3.5 Paste the following CSS | |
4. Restart Firefox | |
Note: This assumes vertical tabs are enabled in Firefox. | |
