# Star Wars theme
What better way to celebrate Star Wars day then with a Star Wars theme. This theme gives a parallax star background and a traditional star wars theatrical crawl on the site FAQ page.
The Git repo includes the sound files to accompany the intro (browser dependent). Please feel free to modify, pull requests welcome :smiley:

Please could we enable upload of sound files (mp3, ogg) to assets on the theme creator site?

I’ve updated this theme to coincide with the anniversary of the release of Star Wars on 25 May 1977.
- New jump to light speed and hyperspace effect (hold down left mouse button or long touch on screen)
- Improved rendering of FAQ crawl on mobile devices
- New lightsaber to conduct the orchestral opening
- Admins renames on the About page
- Iris wipe effect on privacy page (experimental)

This theme is now generating and error on the theme creator and the theatrical crawl isn’t displaying. The theme hasn’t been changed and it still works on the latest stable version of Discourse.
@david can you tell if this is this an issue with the theme creator demo site (and/or discourse version it is running on) or the theme?

Probably breaking on this:

Thanks @merefield. That’s fixed it :+1:.
When did the JavaScript “use strict” requirement come in?

That’s the topic explaining the changes:

> Next week I’m going to merge [this PR](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12661) that allows themes and components to have QUnit tests, but it also changes how themes JavaScript is processed/transpiled by Discourse. Making those changes in a backward-compatible manner is very difficult without reworking lots of code in core (which may very well introduce other backward-incompatible changes), so the changes may break the JavaScript of your themes/components when you upgrade your site. In this post I’m going to explain what the changes are…

Amazing theme! The only issue I have with it though is that the text scrolls quite rapidly, if you could slow it down a bit, that would be great.
