I’m struggling to add a dark theme on a production forum. I’m not sure why, but the site keeps certain elements white. I spun up a test Discourse and cannot recreate, but it looks like this on the production forum after enabling the dark theme: [image] CSS. Click to see .page-not-found-search { display: none; } .hamburger-panel ul.category-links li.subcategory { display: none; } img[src*=‘#left’] { float: left; } img[src*=‘#right’] { float: right; } img[src*=‘#center’] { display: block; margin: auto; } .d-header-icons .icon:hover, .d-header-icons .icon:focus { background-color: white; } .d-header-icons .d-icon { color: white; } .d-header-icons .icon:hover .d-icon, .d-header-icons .icon:focus .d-icon { color: #0082c9; } .drop-down-mode .d-header-icons .active .icon .d-icon { color: #0082c9; } /* Don’t show subcategories in category list */ .category-list .subcategories { display: none; } Afaik the issue is with the CSS, so I’m wondering about how I can change it. Thanks for any guidance.

I have been messing with the color scheme so far. I exported the existing css (linked above) and theme settings to to test on my own home discourse, but ran into no such troubles.

I figured it out. There were additonal custom css values written into a custom component, which I thought was a default. Removing that component resolved everything and dark theme works perfectly. Thanks for guidance @pfaffman as I know everyone has busy lives. :heart:

I’m guessing it was “Make banner white” !!!

Are any other themes or components at play?

Are you changing just the color scheme or are you trying to make changes via css?

Can you share the url?
