Hello,

In custom_prosilver_fr.css, find :

Code: Select all

--color01: #1e90ff;
Replace with:

Code: Select all

--color01: coral;

Hi Cabot,
Doesn't appear to be working. I did do the delete cache on browser and even on phpBB.
It is still falling back to #1e90ff.

Code: Select all

/*
Force dark theme
*/
html,
[data-theme=light] {
	--color01: coral;
	--color02: #222;
	--color03: #333;
	--color04: #444;
	--color05: #555;
	--color06: #666;
	--color07: #6b6b6b;
	--color08: #7b7b7b;
	--color09: #d31141;
	--color10: #6a1b2e;
	--color11: #fff;
	--color12: #ccc;
	--color13: #ddd;
	--color14: #000;
	--color15: #fff;
	--contact-icon: var(--dark-contact-icon);
	--online: var(--dark-online);
	--offline: var(--dark-offine);
	color-scheme: dark;
}

Two things:
  1. You didn't undo this change as I suggested in this message.

    It needs to be undone (or restore the original file) because by forcing the dark theme with the data attribute, colors declared in the original CSS file takes precedence. You no longer need to modify the HTML to add this attribute: the extension's CSS declarations allow the dark theme to be displayed.

    As a reminder:

  2. It seems that the modification in the extension's custom_prosilver_fr.css file on your board has not been made.

Don't expect people to come on their own. You need to advertise your forum on social networks and encourage people to come. You also need content to attract them and encourage them to participate.
I wish you all the best for the future of your board!

Got a bit confused here...

I have used the Proflat Dark Side and personal theme from the French website which seems easier to modify.
My forum wad (obviously) dark and a lime green text.

I have now installed Prosilver French Edition.
I also wanted the default setting for visitors to be dark theme and used the fix suggested in the overall header:
Simply add data-theme="dark" to the <html> tag in overall_header.html
If I want to change the default text colour (color01) in the css file In custom_prosilver_fr.css, then I have to undo the changes in the overall header?

A couple of questions...
If I undo the overall header file changes, how/where to I force dark theme to be default?
If I swap the colours around - blue (color01) to lime green in the css file, does this affect the mouse over text pop up displaying the colour names in the palette selection?

This stuff would be nice as an FAQ topic.

Thanks
Andy

Hello,

If you want to display "LimeGreen" as the default text colour, simply add data-color="LimeGreen" to the <html> tag, in the same way as for data-theme. :)

Code: Select all

<html dir="{{ S_CONTENT_DIRECTION }}" lang="{{ S_USER_LANG }}" data-theme="dark" data-color="LimeGreen">

You can find the list of available colours in the config.html file.
You can even add or remove items from the list! :)

Code: Select all

{% DEFINE COLORS = ['Crimson', 'PaleVioletRed', 'MediumOrchid', 'BlueViolet', 'SlateBlue', 'RoyalBlue', 'DodgerBlue', 'DarkTurquoise', 'DarkCyan', 'LimeGreen', 'YellowGreen', 'Gold', 'Orange', 'Coral', 'Gray'] %}
