Theme-Switcher-Komponente

[B-iggy]

[deprecated]

Hallo Discourse-Community,

aufgrund vieler Anfragen stelle ich eine Theme-Switcher-Komponente vor, die aus meinem Alien Night Theme gekapselt wurde.
Derzeit wechselt das Theme beim Drücken des Buttons in ein Dark-Mode-Theme.

Später könnte ich vielleicht eine Einstellungsseite implementieren, auf der Sie Ihre eigene globale CSS-Klasse definieren können, in die Ihr Theme wechseln soll.
Oder einfach zwischen den ersten beiden Themes hin- und herschalten, die Sie den Benutzern zur Auswahl angeboten haben…

Later on I can maybe implement a setting page, where you can define your own global CSS class your theme should switch into.
Or just toggle between the first two themes you allowed for users to choose from…

You can let admins select which themes they want to use. We have two different themes and each theme has it own dark mode.

If you have feedback or questions, just let me know

When we click the switch to change light to dark, this component below should have change the logo’s color to light as the opposite. Now it doesn’t work with this switch.

Ok, I’m not advanced in Discourse modding but I try to implement it.
Help from professional guys are appreciated @Johani

Hmm, good point. Not sure how I can make a cross-component-compatibility-mode.
I’ll think about it.
Thanks for the first feedback so far!

Defining the themes in the settings is possible, but will complicate things. The hamburger menu theme selector is a good working example of how you’d change the theme based on ID.

I had some time tonight, so I worked on modifying the hamburger theme selector to toggle between two themes: Header Theme Toggle. Thanks so much for inspiring this with your theme @B-iggy!

[B-iggy]

Good Morning @awesomerobot ,
oh wow, that was quick
Much better than I could have done anyways.

I think this topic here is obsolete/redundant then

Not necessarily, there are some benefits of switching the CSS rather than switching the entire theme. Everything’s self contained and you don’t need to fully refresh for all the changes to take effect.

[Anatolia]

Your component might be better with some improvements. I hope you continue to develop

[szergely (Szergely Gergely)]

Awesome plugin! How can i force it to be in the first place (next to the search bar)?

[B-iggy]

Good Morning @szergely
glad to hear you like it

Instead of changing the code on your end I think it makes sense to have it next to the search icon per default.
So I pushed this change now. Let me know if it’s fine

Add the theme switch always next to the search icon

[szergely (Szergely Gergely)]

Yes now its there! Thank you for the fast support, i really like this light/dark button!

[B-iggy]

Unfortunately I can’t edit my own post at the top

Hence the important notice that the preview link got updated:

I pushed a new version and the regular “Update to Latest” was broken, so I reinstalled it

[sam (Sam Saffron)]

Made it wiki, you should be able to update it now

[jrgong]

When using Dark mode with Sam’s minimal theme, it looks like this:

Also is there any workaround to add an alternative logo? My current one is not readable on dark bg, hence I want to add a inverted one for the dark mode

[sam (Sam Saffron)]

My theme has lots of hardcoded colors and only works properly with a light color scheme. Open to fixing this but for now it does not work right in dark mode.

[jrgong]

Hast du schon mal darüber nachgedacht, den unteren Bereich kleiner zu gestalten? Bei der Verwendung zusätzlicher Komponenten nimmt der Header viel Platz in Anspruch. Zum Beispiel gefällt mir der Dark-Mode-Button in diesem Ghost-Theme oben rechts:

🚀 Liebling Theme

[PatrickH (Patrick)]

Kann ich das auch für das Material-Design-Theme verwenden?

[jrgong]

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, das Plugin vom Header in das Dropdown-Benutzermenü zu verschieben?

[sam (Sam Saffron)]

Auf einfache Weise geht das nicht, du bräuchtest eine neue Komponente.
