Hi, i am new to Discourse so not sure if this is a user error, but i am having issues editing the colours.
I copied the theme default dark colours and edited them to my own choices, thing is some colours changed and some did not?
See image for new colours and the actual change of colours in admin section, what colours worked can be seen at main site is talk.carptalk.com
Is it a user error or a bug?
When using the Alient Night theme and upgrading to a more recent Discourse release, I noticed the colors on the hamburger menu items was no longer visible.
yes, sorry for that. I hard coded some colors in my theme, since I didnât know better 2 years ago.
I will rework that part for sure to make it more user friendly. See below.
Hard times are going on for me right now. If all works out, I have much more time in about one month again.
Over the time Discourse implemented fundamental changes to themes and how you can make one.
I classify my theme for now as âlegacyâ, so I really want to rework this one completely or release a brand new one - to be announced.
When the /unread page is empty, it displays an explanation in the education class. I think that it is not being switched properly, so it shows as the primary colour even in dark mode.
Maybe this is one of those changes that came more recently?
Note : with the release 4.0.0 I redesigned/refactored the theme from ground up. Itâs more contrast friendly, it uses CSS variables and is overall more slick.
Again, with a Dark/Light toggle implemented. This time, for now, with help of an external component ( Dark/Light Mode Toggle )
Thanks for the screenshots!
Hmm, the first one is saying there is a javascript error I guess. Tried few combinations myself and couldnât reproduce it for now.
Best to wait until the Dark-Light Toggle component is updated I think.
I updated my theme by removing my artificial sidebar to inject the component myself that way.
Please update your theme and install the component yourself to have a dark/light toggle
(couldnât figure out yet how to pack theme components inside themes).
I donât know if this will fix your issue. If not, there is something bigger wrong for you I think.
