Change theme/style

Post by henrys »

I'm stuck on the dark theme and can't figure how to change it to the light color theme. Thanks!

You know, I just tried to find it where I thought it was and it's not there. I've been looking for it about a half hour and just can't locate it. I do know the theme is still active for the board but can't find how to switch between the two. Weird. Hopefully Julien D or KDXgarage can chime in on how to find it.

IIRC when they updated the board software that feature was not included, just the default style. Admins can change that I believe, but it's been awhile since I dug around in phpBB

Here is how it used to be done. I am not sure of the "prosilver" is still available or not. Maybe Julien D will know.

I could use this, unfortunately I have some serious eye problems and that would definitely benefit me. I see afterimages of the paragraphs. I see a bunch of stacked horizontal lines almost like my brain stores the text.

I have enabled prosilver. You can select your style using the steps that KDXGarange linked up above.

I'm not a fan of the silver. It just isn't KDXrider.

This white theme sucks. How do we go back to the black? … EDITED… fixed, thank God. I was ready to sell my KDX and get a Suzuki.

I agree with that, and will continue to use my customized lucid lime theme. If some people need the black on white background, they can choose to use it.

I totally get people not being a fan of the silver. I can’t figure out how to set it up, it was the default for a couple days and now it’s back to original and I figured I could change it following the steps but I cannot. Not a huge deal

Mine has always been a dark theme white font on most of the text and bright green on the subject lines and other highlighted text. Very pleasing to the eyes. I go dark theme on absolutely everything, a white background is a bit harder on my eyes and uses more battery on smartphones.

Good now thank you. I don’t want to take away from everyone else’s preferences because of me and others who prefer the white background so hopefully those who prefer the OG colors are able to still have it set that way.

Yep, every user has the choice between the traditional KDXrider dark theme or the silver theme.
