I use this exact same extension on 2 of my other browsers, Chrome and FireFox. It is an excellent extension, it allows me to edit how things appear in any webpage that I frequently visit (ie: Google search results). It also acts like an AD blocker, where I can remove popups and elements on any webpage, especially in YouTube where they have these block elements popping up over the video while trying to watch it.
Of course, you need to know CSS coding and know how to use the source code inspector provided by any major browser.

One of the most useful extensions with a practical interface. Thank you for developing it.

I really love this extension. I'm glad I can finally put new backgrounds and themes to the website and get rid of the boring black and white themes.

@shion-san said in Stylus:
Doesn't work properly anymore.
I still use this extension in the current versions of FireFox, Google Chrome and Opera. It works fine.
If anyone has a problem, then shut off all the other extensions you are using and see what other extension or plugin is causing the conflict.
Note: this extension will not work on any built-in default page templates used by Chrome, Firefox or Opera. These are the "New Tab" built-in default pages that show quickstart icons. The reason is how those built-in pages work and how they are generated by the browser.

@mark2090 I wasn't clear enough. It works, but it is almost always fails to open new editor window for selected style, does not keep changes made between Opera startups (new style created before Opera being closed isn't there on next Opera start), and it can't switch styles on and off dynamically.
I'll try your solution. -

I just tested Stylus in Opera version: 72.0.3815.186 and updated to version: 72.0.3815.200.I used it:
Current tab - works fine
Opened a new tab -works fine.
Opened New Window - works fine
Closed Opera & tabs, reopened Opera with new default tab -works fine.InCognito Mode
By default, most extensions won't work in Incognito mode, you have to change the settings for that extension for it to work.Developer Inspection Window
This is when you right click any part of the webpage and click "inspect element". In the inspection window, you can change any part of the webpage. These changes will never remain on page refresh or new Tab or reopening Opera.What the inspection window also does, it seems to bypass Stylus. I think because the DOM is affected or temporarily changed by the inspection window, and this affect remains so long as that page remains open. Once it is refreshed, renewed or Opera closed and reopens, Stylus works again.
Saving a CSS Style
I list this out for the benefit of new users to Stylus- Click icon
- Click "manage" button
- Click "Write New Style" button for a new style (left window) or click a current saved style in the middle window
- Write the new CSS Style. It must be correct in syntax, else it won't work.
- Click save button left window, make sure the "enabled" box is checked and for real time results, check "live preview".
- Use the browsers back button to return to the main list.
Hope that helps, along with what I said above.

@mark2090 It seems it's an Opera problem. Latest update broke address bar for me. I suppose it also broke something within the extension. Anyway I'll try doing a clean Opera reinstall and see if it helps.

Poipoi555, your not giving much information by just saying "doesn't work", as I have it installed in Opera version: 73.0.3856.344 (64 bit), it works fine.
...but, here is some information to help everyone understand the use of extensions.
Conflicts with Other Extensions?
If you have other extensions installed, deactivate them and check them one by one to see if any one of them interferes with Stylus.Some Web Pages block Stylus
Some web pages may conflict with, or block Stylus since Stylus is a script itself for it to work. There was one time I had to deactivate Stylus because the web page conflicted with it. Nothing can be done about this. All you can do in this case is work the best with it.Built-in Browser Pages
Stylus will not work in built-in pages of Opera such as the Speed Dial page or a default Tab page. Most extensions that affect web pages will not work in browser built-in pages.If this is the case, click on the Stylus icon on the browser top bar and you will see this:
Stylus doesn't work on pages like this. As a security precaution, the browser prohibits extensions from affecting its built-in pages (like chrome://version, the standard new tab page as of Chrome 61, about:addons, and so on) as well as other extensions' pages. Each browser also restricts access to its own extensions gallery (like Chrome Web Store or AMO).
Hope that helps.

Great extension on Chrome... I have yet to give it a thorough run thru on my new Brave browser. However, in Opera GX, there is a minor bug I came across... I had the following option turned on in the browser settings that broke the appearance of the popup from the icon (white text on white background): "Force dark pages Beta" in Opera GX's "Features" section of the main settings area. Turning this setting off fixes the appearance issue. It is a beta feature in Opera GX, but something to be aware of.

@stylus: I kind of hate that the OP didn't respond to you explaining the project to him. Considering OP doesn't understand/care how Grating it is to lob complaints and out-of-scope feature requests at an OSS maintainer/contributor, thinks clean text-based UIs in a (mainly) dev orientated app is bad a bad thing, and relies heavily on community themes makes me think he's not really the sort of individual this project is for.
I assume he's just an insolent poser teenager, considering his inability to accurately choose an analogic decade (90s would have been the minimum for any accuracy and far less hyperbolic).
My point in all of this is to submit my hope that you were able to educate him a bit, preventing him from continuing the path he was on. A path that would one day lead to him opening a posting an issue with the same attitude on some poor project's repo, hurting a community's morale, and end in a furious torrent of replies that make him feel like a gigantic jackass.
