I’d like to make it so all new and existing users are set to see the newly customized theme I created. How can I do that?

If you want to set a theme as default, select the theme, click “Theme is enabled by default” and then hit the blue tick.

[image] sam: click “Theme is enabled by default” and then hit the blue tick. Does that mean it will be force-enabled for all users or just all new users that sign up after the setting is ticked? I think the copy here is less than ideal.

When you switch default it switches the default for all users that did not pick a different user selectable theme explicitly (if there is one available). A bit of a mouth full, but yeah we can improve the copy here.

Thank you all! And I’m including this sentence to appease the 20-character minimum comment requirement.

If you go to your user preferences… can you successfully change your theme there? If you’ve previously selected a theme, changing the default won’t effect you. community.example.com/my/preferences/interface

The default in my forum is LIGHT, but the moment i log in with my user - it appears in DARK. NO idea why this is happening or how to fix it and its frustrating…
