How To Change The New Forum Style So It Is Easier To Read

[eccentric-nut]

I found the two new styles pretty hard to read with my old eyes

After working out how to change to a default style, it is so much easier to read and I preffer the more traditional forum layout.

Hope this helps others with older eyes!

From this:


To this:


Just click the 'Style Chooser' in the bottom left hand corner and choose Default Style.

Noticed this myself tonight, light green skin with white default topic headings means topic headings are invisible so there should be an option to change text colours

We'll look at that white and green skin and sort the invisible thread topics out. One for @Ravage .

We will also bring some of the favourite old skins back at some point too. ,👍

Thanks. The Default theme is much better for me.

I've changed it so it should be readable now !

@eccentric-nut Thanks so much for the tip!

@Alpha1 Would it be possible for a Default Style (Dark) at all?

Thanks, and welcome back!

Dark Reader does a great job with it.

Oh that's brilliant !. Thanks for posting that. I'm not a fan of dark themes.

It seems the next update will include a Default (dark) theme ... I'm inclined to wait for that release TBH

That said, I've tested an available alternative:

@cools also suggests using a chrome extension ... I think we go with that seeing its planned and in the works... besides the Dark Green / Dark Blue can work for now perhaps if Chrome isn't your bag... ?

I liked the Mr. Do theme that the old website had. Hope it gets ported to XenForo!
In regards to the "Light Green" theme, there's quite a bit of dark gray in it...

Thanks so much for the replies, and suggestions. I use Edge, so will wait for what happens in future, lol

Firefox extension, I believe its also available for inferior browsers too, yes.
