Having trouble installing themes on Windows

onerousbudgie opened this issue · 6 comments

I followed the instructions in the Readme. However, only the icons seem to have been installed not any of the background colors, highlights or fonts. I tried to change it to the Monterail theme but nothing would change. Would anybody know how to fix this issue? I've attached pictures. Thanks

Hi @onerousbudgie. Did you edit the 29th row of userChrome.css with your favorite theme?

I did (Under the select theme here). It still doesn't work though

May you paste the contents of userChrome?

Brand new here. I'm encountering the same problem. Are there any responses to this topic?
Thanks, Ron

@onerousbudgie Sorry for the late answer, I was abroad for the holidays. You should edit row 29th (the folder is missing):
@import "themes/dark.css";

@ronreed55 Update me if this works for you too.
