FAQ

Why are my styles getting applied when I first enable them, but then turn off when I browse back to the page or open a new window?

Long story short, to be able to override styles on a web page, Stylish styles have to be more important than them. This can be achieved by adding "!important" after every value. For example, color: blue !important; rather than color: blue.

Where are styles stored?

By default, styles are stored in a file called stylish.rdf in the profile folder. You can change this setting with the about:config preference "extensions.stylish.fileURL".
