Firefox not affected by gtk theme

You can use Gnome Tweak Tool to use the dark theme for all the applications:

tweak tool - enable dark theme for all applications

BUT

Firefox uses GTK2. Gnome Tweak Tool only edits the GTK3 settings, hence we need to edit the /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc file.

Initially we backup our gtkrc file

sudo cp /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.bak

Next copy the following and replace your existing gtkrc file:

#Color scheme originally contributed by Franco Gotusso as Clearlooks-DarkOrange 
# Based on Clearlooks-DarkCoffee by Chibi and edited by bvc as Clearlooks-DarkCoffee2
