General Site Use Dark mode

[Puggles]

I am using an extension with my browser, so it's not a request, more a curiosity. I don't do programming, so I don't know (I'm an audio guy), would incorporating a dark mode into the site be possible, or is that a pain in the ass to do?

omg, How have I never noticed this?

 

[PAcanis]

Oh my.
Is that like the dark web?

I just found something weird. When I use the site's dark mode, I can't see my text, but when I use my extension's version, it works fine.

I'll look into that. I know what the problem is and possibly how to fix it. It's the way that the original owner chose the colouring for the text, but it may not be possible to alter it all.

Your text is still there, it's just black text on a black background. If you highlight the text, you can see it, like this.



I'll put it into my to look at list. If it is an easy fix, it can move to the to do list.

I don't have all of it working yet but you can now see the text!
The former owner and founder of CB had hard-coded the colour of certain objects into some files I do not normally tamper with.

Thanks, I’m flipping back to Dark Mode!

I still need to do some work on it. There's a lot of stuff hard coded into areas that it really doesn't and shouldn't be in, but before I remove it, I need to find the same setting on the system and make sure it is applied there.

Oh, and @everyone, please feel free to let me know if something could be improved in dark mode, colours, hue, style, etc. It's not an area i use because i find dark mode anywhere, hard to read.

Ditto here. Not easy on my eyes.

I am so glad it is not just me. Everyone seems to love it. My eyes relax when it's turned off and I can feel the relief immediately.

I like bright mode. Dark, not my cup of tea.
