Light Theme borked?

[Wesleytron]

Don't know if it's just me, but for the last day or two the light theme hasn't been displaying properly - looks like it isn't applying the CSS. Tested in Chrome and Firefox with the same result, all on desktop PC, Windows 11. Dark Theme is fine.

Had to go search where to go to change theme. Can confirm, on safari, also.

Yes, there is an issue with it - trying to resolve it.

Oh, thank you! I had no clue what to do. Looking for the theme thingy now. Wish me luck....

ETA: Yay! I found it. Heart palpitations are slowing down.

Can confirm, this is a light theme issue. At the bottom of the messed up page there is a link for default theme. When I click it, everything is laid out correctly in the dark theme.

I ran into this 2-3 nights ago, even with the (suddenly not so) dark theme. Tried to report it, not sure if that went through though.

By the next morning, either it resolved itself or Cristiano worked some magic. =)

That's the easy path.

So here's the sequence of events. I have a bunch of MP4 videos from Instagram, Twitter, etc. that I wanted to share. I enabled MP4 video uploads for myself (sorry, can't allow direct image or video uploading for legal reasons). Turning it on broke something. I couldn't figure out what, so I turned to Google Gemini. I did a series of steps and it fixed it, but apparently it didn't rebuild the other theme as well. I will look into it tonight and do the same. I always forget there are weird people who don't use dark themes because they hate their eyes.

This is the way.

That's the easy path.

It's the path with cookies.

.....or SO I HAVE HEARD.

Somehow the entire internet has black type on white backgrounds, despite it being bad for the eyes?

It is the way of the Ancients.

I am particularly fond of black text on light gray background myself. The way the Internet was always meant to look. People had useful and interesting things to say back then

Checks out.

I did something similar the other night on one of the sites I run. One function had quit, so I ran through my "Casey's Greatest Fix-It Hits" repertoire in about 20 minutes. Problem solved, but I have no idea a) what the problem was, nor b) how I fixed it.

Could use some suggestions from you perfessionals for what to tell the client that is more sophisticated than, "I threw a ton of spaghetti at the wall and one piece stuck."

"I had to run through a number of resolutions to find the remedy to the problem." Which is my way of saying I did my job, just don't ask me what I did to accomplish it.

Yes, the internet is known for healthy choices.

 

[Rose Karuna]

I'm having the same issue.

 

[Isabeau]

There are new reaction thingies! I counted four.
What does this have to do with light/dark themes?
Who cares, four thingies!

 

[Isabeau]

Ok, they don’t seem to work ha ha
