User sel3ected colors not honoured since recent update.

more options

Due to recent changes in FireFox, user selected colors for background, text and links are no longer honored, even though the "Always" option is selected. Instead, it applies System Color, even though that option is not ticked.

This is a major problem for me, because I am light sensitive due to Chronic migraine, and the white backgrounds that are common cause me physical pain to look at.

I am using the dark theme. Thanks.

Are there specific pages that do follow the theme and your settings, or do you have the problem on all pages?

For example my travel blog has a dark background and you would expect that your color settings would override this to your assigned colors: https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ttw/

You could try setting the preferences in about:config. Open a new tab, enter about:config in the url bar, accept the risk and enter the colours you want.

You can also use bookmarklets to substitute a colour for a white background or to set colours for the page. The latter will stop you seeing images so I'll give you a link for the former in a separate reply. You have to use a bookmarklet each time you load or reload a page.

As it happens, they are on the same page: https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/zap.html

I tried adjusting the specified values in "about:config", but it had no effect.

I am pretty sure there is a bug that was introduced recently.

When I test with this hideous combination, it works, at least on the new tab page and web pages:

It doesn't seem to work on the Settings page itself or on about:config for some reason. Maybe that's because I have the "System Theme" enabled with a light Windows theme. Which Firefox theme are you using? Use themes to change the look of Firefox
