Title: Dark theme? / Sig length / Posts per page
Post by: Melan on September 03, 2020, 02:44:05 AM
Is there a way to set a dark background for the updated forums? I have been looking, but couldn't find any. Not essential, but it would be nice to have one.


Something else: I notice signatures are much more limited in length in the current system than they used to be. Could this be returned to the previous settings?


And a third one: would it be possible to have an option for 100 posts per page, as in the old system?

There is no dark background. Signatures are limited since a lot take up too much room. I'll have to look into the 100 post per page.

I'd like to second the posts per page, was just looking for that setting, and can't find it.


As far as themes, I would like to see some different options.

You can change that option here, but it maxes out at 50.

I added the 100 post per page option. If it starts to tax the server, I'll have to remove it.

Thanks! I don't think my sig was excessive, but I guess the technical limits are the technical limits.

Melan, you have a rogue [/b] tag in your sig.

I'd like to second the "Dark Theme s'il vous plaît" call.  If it's too much work for too little payoff, that's fine.

Sorry. Dark theme is problematic.

Sorry. Dark theme is problematic.

Why is it problematic?  I’ve had many different SMF forums I made for different campaigns and I always used one of the dark themes.

Adding new themes is unreliable with custom modifications. I can't just use something off the shelf, because they typically break very easily. That means I have to take the existing theme and redo the CSS for it. I can do it, but I don't have the time right now. I may attempt it at some future point.
