A member reported an issue with Dark mode color the highlight makes emoji selector text and pm selector text unreadable.

[squarecranium (Steven)]

Hi there, I am very new to discourse, so apologies in advances if I am missing something obvious here. After installing the Air Theme there seems to be a couple of issues.

1. The “welcome to our community” message is invisible as it is the same colour as the background. I have tried updating colours but could not get the colour of this text to change.
   

   
   
   As you can see below, the text is there but only visible when highlighted
   
   

2. Thew welcome text is appearing in the wrong place - i expected this to appear within the colour background however as you can see in the images above, it is not doing this.

Any help or tips would be much appreciated!

This should be fixed if you follow these steps

Discourse Search Banner

In the options for the discourse-search-banner theme component, the plugin-outlet options needs to be set to BELOW-SITE-HEADER for this theme to render properly.

Hmmm, im not seeing this behavior. Are you using the most up to date version of discourse & theme?

[Heliosurge (Dan DeMontmorency)]

Yes on both. Just completing a new upgrade for discourse available today… Will check again once complete.

You should still have the test account details I sent you. Will update this post shortly.

After discourse update no change in above the selector in dark mode the highlighted info is blank as above.

How do you disable the air theme’s topic thumbnail/excerpts to default behavior? Only showing topic title unless pinned?

[squarecranium (Steven)]

Thank you very much - this has done the trick

Love the theme

I want to use the Modern Category + Group Boxes plug-in, but is there a way to rearrange the main page?

My issue is that all the categories appear in boxes on top, and the Latest section is below. While it’s really well designed, it might not be user-friendly for someone who is in the Community for a quick browse. Is there a way to place the category boxes on the left side of the home page (I know it’s possible to use the sidebar, but still) and then the Latest on the right, similar to the Discourse Clickable Topic plug-in?

[jordan-vidrine]

This is not currently possible, sorry about that!

[Heliosurge (Dan DeMontmorency)]

How would I fix the background? I narrowed it diwn to the Chat plugin.

With the Chat plugin disabled or logged out it displays properly. See pic 1

Logged in with chat plugin enabled

See how there us a white column instead of the background between bubbles and the blue is cut in the center.

Thanks for sharing, this is def. an interesting visual bug. Ill take a look

[jordan-vidrine]

This should now be fixed. Thanks again for reporting.

Hi, everyone! I hope you’re all doing great.

I plan to install the air theme and check it on different devices, but I have an issue with how it looks on iOS.

Is there a way to make the background static so you can only see the blue & grey on top when you’re logged in? What I’m looking for is to have a grey background when scrolling down through categories.

[jordan-vidrine]

This theme is meant to be used in tandem with the modern category theme component that is also installed with the theme.

@jordan-vidrine

Modern Category + Group Boxes

This theme component requires your categories to use the CATEGORY BOXES WITH SUBCATEGORIES setting in your /admin/site_settings/category/all_results?filter=categories area.

This theme component also allows the forum admin to organize their category page with header titles, and choose which categories appear under each header. To keep things simple, I have only allowed up to 5 headings to be used. If no categories + heading settings are chosen, all categories will render as they do above, this is the default rendering option.

Visual Bugs as of 03/31/2023

Update: Most if not all bugs are not caused by Air Theme, but rather a patch update by Discourse.

• Using the latest version of Discourse (at the time), Air Theme, and Modern Category + Group Boxes.
• All settings from the OP tips area are matching.
• All custom CSS has been disabled to rule out any conflicts.

---

Bug #1 - Categories are displayed as 2 columns.

When logged in, categories display as blocks (1 column) which is correct.

Update: Not related to Air Theme

• Impacts Android, iOS, and Windows-Chrome using Mobile view when logged out.

Solution: Updating Discourse To: discourse v3.1.0.beta2 +864

---

Bug #2 - Header is missing. Users cant login.

Update: Not related to Air Theme
Solution: Updating Discourse To: discourse v3.1.0.beta2 +864

Why the top header part missing

Looks like this may be an issue with a recent update, we’ll investigate. @0talal.mash0 when logged in, if you go to admin → settings, search for bootstrap mode and set the bootstrap_mode_min_users setting to 0 it may fix this issue. I think the error is related to that feature.

• Impacts Android, iOS, and Windows-Chrome using Mobile view when logged out.

---

Bug #3 - When logged out, the categories page displays the Air Theme pill shaped categories (good), and also repeats the categories using the original category style native to Discourse (bad).

Update: Not related to Air Theme
Solution: Updating Discourse To: discourse v3.1.0.beta2 +864
Result: This entire are is no longer displayed. Only the Air Themed styles category pills are visable.

---

Bug #4 - White wrapper around categories missing.

• Impacts Android, and iOS on mobile view (logged in or out)

Mobile View on Desktop - vs - Mobile View using App

The html body #main-outlet css class does not appear to be compatible on mobile devices.

Hello there,

I really love the template and i use it from maybe 2 weeks, and i would like to add analytics to my forum. But i cant modify the CSS for adding the google tag code from analytics.

Did u know if its possible to add it somewhere ?

thanks a lot for ur anwser !

[Arkshine]

Hi, welcome back

You don’t need to modify your theme. Unless I misunderstand, you can set up Google Analytics in the admin settings (Basic Setup or type ga in the search bar)
