To install Firebug manually : There are two ways to run extensions manually: 1. Extract the XPI : Download the XPI file that contains the extension Locate the 'extensions' folder within your profile (e.g. via Firefox menu > Help > Troubleshooting Information > Show Folder) Create a new folder within the 'extensions' folder and call it like the add-on's id (for Firebug this is [email protected]) Extract the XPI into that folder 2. Get the sources from the git repository: A detailed description for how to do that can be found on the development setup description on the Firebug wiki. It's similar to the description above with the addition that you'll be able to always get the latest sources. Two notes: - The folder name must be the same as the addon's ID (look in install.rdf of the addon) In your case it's not firebug-2.0b1 , but [email protected] - The directory where the addon should be placed is not where the Firefox itself is installed, but into your Firefox's profile. By default it's in %APPDATA%MozillaFirefoxProfilesXXXXXextensions (where XXXXX is name of your profile folder. More info about profiles you can find here)

I see no documentation about this and I have few suggestions about it. I think this is a must-have feature for the freedom of users. A user should be able to install styles from other sources. Example: User goes to www.example.com User clicks on the link (www.example.com/name_of_the_style.user.css) Stylish detects the link by ".user.css" component Stylish shows a dialog: "Would you like to add this site to allowed domains list?" └► This dialog is only shown once and shown when it is required └► Domains can be removed/set/added from User Styles tab in about:addons User clicks "Yes" Stylish shows another dialog "Would you like to install this style?" User clicks "Yes" The style is installed.

Users can currently install from other sources in these ways:Modify the setting extensions.stylish.install.allowedDomains in about:config and visit a site that implements the appropriate meta elements and something like this JavaScript and use its UI (supports metadata).

First Visit RawGit as suggested earlier Next copy your file path from github into the RawGit box RawGit will automatically produce two refrences to your web page The Development and Production refrence refrence the development link in your webpage if you are still developing save/upload then reload your webpage if there was no change it means your browser has saved your former refrence clear your browser data then reload Hope that helps?

To save other people some grief, I want to note that the different hosts in extensions.stylish.install.allowedDomains are SPACE separated. I assumed comma and it really tripped me up. I apologize for resurrecting a few old threads, but I just happened on one after another trying to figure this out. I want to avoid anyone else getting stuck like this

Instead of having to get an userstyles.org account, it would be much easier to be able to install user styles directly from dA. The process for the upload could be similar to what we have with installable skins right now (based on .txt files with mandatory wrapping code). Imo it's also more logical if dA styles would stay on dA. No need to rely on outside sources. If implemented there needs to be an way to be able to update styles though, to work on bug fixes or do updates from time to time. Similar to the installable skins, you then would have an install button at the deviation page of those styles directly. This would be less scary for people who are warned that there are monsters outside dA and - which would be another big plus (i am totally not biased here lol) - it would make miscats to that gallery nearly impossible.
