Postmortem Blinded by the Light

[Null]

I have conducted routine maintenance. It went pretty well, all things considered, until I accidentally deleted the Dark Theme. So now I have to redo the themes. A good excuse as any to freshen things up a bit, it's been like 4 years since the last time i updated the theme.

If anything is BROKEN (as in, does not work) please let me know. If things are so ugly it's literally unusuable, also let me know. If things are just ugly -- trust me, I know.

P.S. You now see DMs in people's profiles. These DMs are DMs you can see. This is not leaking to the public.

P.P.S. XenForo stores themes in the database without version control. It is not possible to Git themes. It is not possible to restore them. Only a database rollback was an option and I'd rather just fix it.

Please DO NOT make a post about an issue until it exists for 5 minutes.

Most of the existing theme color alternatives are now available in the style chooser. They now all also support light and dark variations, including Stealth. I have added a High Contrast theme which is pure black.

I can't believe you double chucked the dark mode Null.

Whenever you get stuff working normally theme wise again, if you ever aim to add a new one that's not just dark gray or white you could try out a soft-ish dark brownish red? Whatever the color I've been using for my banner background ever since I made one to go with my autistic ass running pfp inside joke thing. These recent events have been making me think about color usage stuff again.

EDIT: Changing to dark mode seems to cause the spacing of text to get a bit off unless I stretch the window to the shape of a portrait mode phone... don't like that, whatever's causing it. Forgot to point that out.

I'm getting the option to react with stickers intended for those marked as "True & Honest Fan", but trying to use them just returns a "you don't have permission to do that" message. Not sure if this has to do with the theme shenanigans or if it's an unrelated bug.

Not really unusable, but the settings pages look kind of goofy. They're all just laid out in one column. Not sure what you have and haven't noticed yourself yet but I figured I'd mention. Looks like every link on that page does it.

Aside from the light theme shenanigans, and Snorky commenting on the T&H stickers showing up for every user, all I have to report is the Announcement banner getting wedged in-between user preferences.

Other than that, it's all smooth sailing.

EDIT: Dangit, ninja'd by DickMain
EDIT 2: I do have one thing to report: the "click to expand" button doesn't always render properly. Might just be on my end though...

So this is how it feels to use Discord light mode at night.

Null would have to create a Braille forum for those of us who remain blind.
We ignore the fact that Braille is used with the hands

I kinda like this layout its better for sidetabs so the posts dont get crushed.

For my mobile niggas, make sure you click "show desktop version" in your browser so you can see the button to change it back. It should be between the bell and the search glass. The button does not appear on the mobile version.

Dressed up like a douche another runner in the night.

I never wanted to use light mode and after seeing what could happen, i won't be anytime soon.
