Our Discourse was updated yesterday and a few hours later two users informed me their preferred Light theme was replaced by Shades of Blue (which had been made the default). They switched back and forth between the two but are stuck with Shades of Blue.
When I checked in the Dashboard the first thing I noticed was the forum was updated 7 hours earlier - when both users were off-line. When I checked the Themes, the color scheme for Light is blank! I think what happened with the update is the Light theme color scheme was cleared so she was defaulted to the Shades of Blue theme… or the Light theme grabbed the Shades of Blue color scheme as something to replace the blank scheme it now has.
All the other Themes work without any problem. If it was only one user I would say she changed her preferences, but there are two users involved. I believe all my other users are using the Dark Theme and Shades of Blue. One may be using Vincent.
As we mentioned on the other topic, you can fix this immediately by renaming or re-generating the color scheme (which bypasses the cache mechanism) but Penar will have another look at this when he starts his day to fix any remaining issues.
Did you already fix the color scheme? Maybe keeping it as it is for a few hours might help Penar debug the issue for hosted customers when he starts his day. If you did, no problem.
Did you change something? Or discourse broke all by himself?
If new colors for the light theme are desired, it would be better to create a new one instead of changing the default one as these new colors are not nice to see, i.e., makes it hard to read stuff.
The discord maintainer said no changes were made. The site always had 3 colors schemes since its first release:
Thanks for your patience, folks, I have posted a fix for this issue. @JimPas your site should be already back to normal. I believe @addons_zz the Anki forums should also be fixed, do let me know if it isn’t fixed there yet.
@Finis is your site hosted with us? If not, you’ll need to rebuild it.
I refreshed my browser (just in case), checked on the color scheme and it’s still showing blank… BUT the them is working! I’m curious… did the color scheme ever show for the default-installed Light Theme?
old topic but I have a similar issue, started noticing when installing (officials) theme components (Hamburger Theme Selector and discourse-category-banners and Dark-Light Toggle), I’m self hosted running 2.9.0.beta14.
I chose the default theme with ‘shades of blue’ color scheme during installation/wizard, but it’s stuck there and none of the theme components work. Where to look or change anything?
