also stylish was removed a month ago from firefox and chrome web store due to security issue
Hmm, it may just be that. I forgot to update to Stylus on this computer, and it appears to have finally disabled itself.
Last night BLF was really really slow and it seems magically better today, and the style override stopped working, so I thought it was a server-side updateā¦ but it may just be an outdated client.
Screenā¦
ā¦ so
ā¦ā¦ā¦bright!
Aaaaaggghhhhhhh!!!
Okay, confirmed. BLFās stylesheet didnāt changeā¦ itās just that Chrome-based browsers started disabling Stylish because it was bought and became spyware.
So, to get things working, uninstall Stylish, install Stylus instead, and do everything else the same as before.
Thanks TK, screen looks SO much better!
Sorry my CTE is acting up :weary: but I am unable to get this to work. I have Stylus installed and enabled. I am still using FF56 cause anything later breaks 90% of my addons. I had Stylish working before FF disabled it ā¦ I tried to read the whole thread but it only confused me. Can you point me to a post that specifically explains what I need to do or maybe provide a CSS file that I can import? Thx TK
FYI, I use FF56 as well.
If you already have Stylus installed and enabled, then go here:
And then click āInstall Styleā.
IIRC, thatās all there is to it.
At this point you can further tweak it to your liking. For example, I made some of the colors slightly brighter as I was having a hard time seeing certain text.
Thanks Peteā¦. I was playing around with it before I read your post and I got it to work although I am not sure if it is safe.
I re-enabled Stylish and exported the BLF info, then imported that into Stylus and disabled Stylish again ā¦. I checked and it is working like it used to BUT is that okay or is some of that code vulnerable?
Edit: After doing the above and reading your post I went to the http://budgetlightforum.com/comment/1358466/edit link you provided and clicked the link āInstall style as userscriptā ā¦ā¦ā¦. would that have overwritten the other script? Sorry for the confusionā¦. CTE makes my brain disfunctional! :weary: :weary: :weary:
Thanks for the help
Being awake makes my brain dysfunctionalā¦ :confounded:
I have PC using chromeā¦.I went to here and clicked install (that was it). Works and is much nicer.
right mkdive, get used to it and then lose it and youāll find the normal screen kills ya! lol
Here is the page with extension links for installing Stylus for Chrome, Firefox, and Something Else (icons, upper right)
When I go to get the āafter darkā script, for some reason all I get at
https://userstyles.org/styles/124240/blf-after-dark
is a spinning beachball āwaitā cursor, right now.
TK, is userstyles.org having collywobbles lately? I canāt get in, havenāt gotten a password reset, and get a beachball cursor trying to search for āBLFā
Thereās recent interest in this from people who saw me mention using it to eschew tedious signatures, and Iām just as confused as the next user about how to revive my old Stylish script. I did see mention of how to convert, Iāve got to go read that.
I did get Stylus extension to install in my Firefox (Mac, 10.12.6)
Ive installed Stylus on Firefox Mac (thanks hank!) and have used code from ToyKeeper (thanks!) to hide all signatures on BLF
the app is here
the code is this:
.forum-post-content > div.clear { display: none; }
.
.
.
and figured out how to Completely Hide posts by any member, with the following code:
/* Someone */
div.posted-by-54321,
div.posted-by-54321,
div.posted-by-54321,
div.posted-by-54321 { display: none !important; }
to get the user ID you want to block, hover over their handle and read their number
then replace the 54321 placeholder
Iām not really sure whatās up with userstyles.org lately. I checked it just now though, and it appears to be working normally. I did a search for āblfā and it returned several results including both of mine.
About hiding posts, it only needs one line per user. Thereās no need to repeat the same UID more than once and if itās only one person then only the last line is needed. The lines before that, ending in a comma, are optional in case people want to hide more than one person.
Or, instead of hiding people, it can be used to style posts on a per-person basis. For example, sbās posts are usually important so I have those styled with a green banner and a bigger brighter font to make sure Iāll notice.
thanks for all the coaching
much appreciate the details including about the commas,

Next things I would like to learn
How to Hide, or enhance the text of,
1. A Thread, by its specific Title?
2. A Thread, started by a specific User?
.
I tried to google, but it was not, yet, enlightening
tutorial links, and handholding most appreciated
I havenāt looked into styling thread titles in the list, but it likely would need selectors based on text content instead of class or ID or anything like thatā¦ so it may require really recent CSS features or javascript.
Stylus tangent, non blf
wanted to do hide the Animated Banner at the top of Netflix
this works for me:
.jawBoneContainer
{
display:none !important;
}
Itās typically a lot easier to do this with an ad blocker plugin. Some have the ability to right-click on the thing you want to remove, select āhide thisā, and then drag a slider to select exactly how much to remove. Same effect, but it only takes a few seconds.
