Are you certain that comes from this component? Does it occur in [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true) with _only_ themes disabled?

If you tried with only themes and theme components disabled via [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true), then themes are not the issue, it’s a plugin issue. What plugins do you have installed?

only the [Dark/Light Mode Toggle](https://meta.discourse.org/t/dark-light-mode-toggle/215585)

That’s a theme, not a plugin. Could you check the admin/plugins page while in [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true)?

This is likely a side-effect of this change:
[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/25764](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/25764)
The default value of this component setting should be a string (e.g., `"0"`, or the type should `integer`).

However, it’s probably unintentional considering it returns a 500 error. Previously, it seems the value was converted to a string [DEV: Centralise logic for validating a theme setting value by tgxworld · Pull Request #25764 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/25764/files#diff-332e654200eeaae8377858ca236e51fb62a51146f043b6efa01027900c7dade3)

Strange, considering it didn’t cause any issues on amc, where I installed it and tested it (hence me asking about plugins)

when was that Discourse instance updated? The pr above was commited on Feb 19, so perhaps the amc forum hasn’t updated since before that.

No we will get it sorted out when a developer has a look at it. 🙂

We usually update every few days, I guess we hadn’t updated recently enough though.

I think this has now been fixed in:
[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/25898](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/25898)
Could you give it a try and see it if works for you now?
