Hi. Is there a reason that the dark mode doesn’t stick when I refresh the page in my Chromium-based browser (not using Google Chrome) on my PC and a lot of times just does nothing when I click on it?
It’s all setup correctly, but no idea why it won’t stick or toggle at all a lot of the times.

For some reason on my instance the button is not showing in the most left bottom corner:

vs Meta:

I have been trying this on a default theme with only this compoonent enabled, and no other custom CSS, am I missing something here?

Even in safe mode, with all plugins disabled and just the default theme + this component, the toggle button is not in the same place.

On another note, I see this issue happening on Meta, noticed this on my instance for a while now but figured it was just me)

This happens when the scheme is changed manually, and does not match the system scheme (as far as I can tell) - a refresh fixes it, but randomly the logo will revert to the “system” color ignoring the manually changed mode through the button.

seems a bug when chrome in dark mode ?
(saw discussed above)

how to reproduce:

  • discourse 3.2.1
    personal preference > color scheme: regular is a light theme, dark mode: same as regular

  • chrome uses system theme (system auto switch to dark in the evening)
    in the evening, when system switches to dark mode, chrome in dark mode too,

the switcher button does not work in the evening for the case above.
while, it works well in day time,
saw the discussion above, saying due to the preference sets dark mode to “same as regular”,
but why it could switch to dark mode in the day time ?

When entering another board after a toggle, the site logo temporarily doesn’t change to match the toggled mode

Did you follow the instructions in the first post? Do you have 2 color schemes that can be choosen by users and did you configure a default dark color scheme?

I finally managed to fix this issue after hours of debugging. Deleting and installing Sidebar Theme Toggle solved it!

Might be helping someone out there, to avoid all your users to have to meddle with Interface settings I find that having the light mode default actually solve the toggle doing nothing (as well as for non logged in users).
