Known Issue: Dark Mode Toggle Broken (Workaround Inside)

[jonp]

Some users are reporting that attempting to toggle dark mode isn't working for them.  If you're using the controls in the top right of the forums, try using the theme switcher in the bottom left.  We will address this in an update in the future.

Nice invision community  customization, but discourse is loaded with more features, free and open source (security concerns). One suggestion to consider it.

Thanks.  Invision was chosen simply because its a platform we were already familiar with from our previous endeavors.  I do like discourse a lot and given some of the other changes Invision has been making, we may consider switching at some point.

I feel like this is a good time to mention https://darkreader.org/ as a good solution to most websites.

Dark Mode all Time

Search "Auto Dark" within brave://flags (or Chrome if you still use Googley) and enable the option you find best for your setup:

darkreader.org // chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dark-reader/eimadpbcbfnmbkopoojfekhnkhdbieeh works great to reverse the enforced 'Auto Dark Mode' on certain websites that do not work well or fully in Dark Mode, For example docs.google.com and coinmarketcap.com either do not fully go dark or just look off, so enforcing them with Dark Reader works perfectly 😼

Is there a way to get the dark/light toggle to auto match my system theme? A lot of websites can do that by using CSS media feature "prefers-color-scheme"

Ahhh good thing I found this thread. Take me back into the light.

My eyes got so tired in the darkmode. It is too dark outside, need some light in my life lol.

I'm a bit late to the party here, but from my experience, the Light > Dark toggle worked every time whereas the Dark > Light toggle seemed to be a bit bugged....

I thought it was just the page trying to save users from themselves lol

Hallelujah my eyes get relief from this dark mode
