@merefield @Lilly Many tx. I needed to add this theme component to my “default” theme. As covered here: [adding components to a theme](https://meta.discourse.org/t/installing-a-theme-or-theme-component/63682#adding-theme-components-to-a-theme-2). And it works (noting I had earlier added the wrong screenshot): ![The image is a screenshot of a computer interface showing line numbering. (Captioned by AI)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/1/6/0/16080c5611d059a6123cfbbac48bd9cb414f3735.png) A couple of comments about the documentation. The correct location is, I believe: Components ▸ Customise ▸ Themes. And the section on adding to themes (see URL above) sounds somewhat more discretionary than it is. Perhaps this wording would be better: "You will need to explicitly add your theme competent to a theme before it will become operational. That includes the “default” theme. Thanks to everyone for their interest and time. I also have a small bug report for my next posting. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/code-block-line-numbers/330130)._
