Dark Theme for Codoforum
dark theme style design codoforum

Hallo Community


because there is no dark theme (style) for Codoforum I created one for myself and I share the result now with the Codo community.


I am not a professional webdesign artist or developer. It is one of my hobbies and even if I love webdesign and already created a lot of projects, I`m sure the theme is far from perfect but it is ready to use.


If You like it or download it give me a thumbs up or leave a comment.


Oh and by the way you are all very very welcome at:


https://net-twin.de a community for creative people and their hobbies.


https://prattle.space a free Twitter alternative!
I try to update the theme from time to time and maybe I will integrate some new features too.


Here is the download link - PLEASE dont forget to give me a STAR rating at GitHub thanks mates:

Kind Regards, Andy

@admin

Would You be so kind and pin it again? For some reasons its no longer sticky smile
It's good if peoples find this dark theme a bit faster, then there is less annoyance in the forum because some dark theme is missing etc. smile

Thank You man smile

P.S.: by the way, I am still updating the theme.

@Andy4real thank you very much for your opinion - I am happy that you like the theme. smile

Info:

I updated the theme to latest Codoforum version. I also styled some of the Codoforum plugins like the "ThaNico's userlist" and "Similar Topics".

If you like or use the theme it would be awesome if you give me a "Star" at GitHub.

It would be awesome if there was an option to switch light theme with dark somewhere in a header with one click.

@pupsik ya you are right - something like a Day/Night Mode smile

I will not integrate it into the Codarko theme, but if Codoforum 5.0 is out I will do exactly this and integrate a real Day/Night Mode for the brand new CF version.

I was already thinking about some nice Day/Night solutions and I even created a small CSS snippet of one of the scopes here at the forums.

If this is possible, will there ever be a Dark Theme added for the Admin Panel? This looks amazing and I am happy even with a simple no if it is not possible.

@TodAufDerFlutch Hmm to be honest I never thought about it, but I think its a nice idea. I can not promise to do it the next couple of days but I will start working on it and try to finish it within 14 days smile

Kind regards, Andy smile

Update: I think I will wait until the brand new Codoforum 5 Version will be released otherwise I have to deal with double the working effort.

@TodAufDerFluch

My reversion to a dark admin panel will take more time I think because I be waiting for Codoforum 5.0

But there is already a slitly darker style integrated (dark admin sidebar) by default.
All you have to do is:

  • open the file: admin/layout/templates/layout.tpl
  • scroll to line 52
  • replace line 52 with:
<body class="s kin-black">
  • no gap between the s and the k - I could not write it together because the word S K IN in the forum must not be written (spam protection)
  • save and recache and your admin section should have a nice dark sidebar now ;)

Attention: Because thats not a real override and is changing the Codo templates you have to repeat that after every update of your Codo installation.

I have to ask the Codo team first how we can edit and override the admin section of CF like with the frontend - at the moment is as far as I know no such feature to override integrated. I think its only possible if one is writing a module to handle the job but I can be wrong. I have to ask them smile

So far so good,

c u Andy smile

OK @DavidLfr I know know whats the problem smile

The following files are missing, try to upload them again with your FTP tool:

sites/default/theme/codarko/img/cbehead.jpg

sites/default/theme/codarko/img/background.jpg

sites/default/assets/img/general/img/favicon.ico?v=1:1

That should fix your problem smile

Hmm thats crazy it should work -

David with missing images it is often the case that people are using Browser AdsBlocker - would you be so kind and kill the Browser AdsBlocker Extension on your domain. After it press STRG and F5 together on your keyboard or CTRL and F5 and tell me if it is working now.

Another issue could be that the two images got destroyd for some reason. I will upload em here for you and you can try to replace your images with it.

5f28232fd3aa2
5f282330667d0

Also make sure you upload all the files with your FTP program in "automatic mode" (you can find it in its settings)

At @admin tell me, do you have any further ideas as to what it may be that the two pictures are not get displayed even though they are on the server? My level of knowledge is at the end. They crazy thging is the two images are on the server and also the browser dev tools does show him at source, but if you click on them they will not be shown. So for my opinion I think they got destroyed by a false FTP upload / transfair. What do you think?

Kind regards Andy smile

P.S.: David we can also try that I can try to install Codoforum for You. If you want to try it send me your FTP connection data to my email: palareas@gmail.com please and I will try to install it for you.
