Dark mode for website

[memo124]

Is there a way to make the Radio Reference website into a dark mode option? That would be nice. Thanks.

It's been there for a long time.

Are you talking about the Forums or the website?

Forums you can, the website I do not believe so

I've always had forums and database, Wiki Etc on dark mode. On my broadcastify playlists it can't be done.

Valid question.

Way down at the bottom of any forums page is a Style selector. One of the options is Dark Theme:


In the RadioReference Wiki, there are several Skins available, though none of them are dark:


I didn't find a way to select a dark theme in the Database, though there may be one that I'm not seeing.

I use the website for radio reference and broadcastify. I was having difficulty with chrome and the forums. I couldn't write a clear sentence and there are a lot of spaces in between my paragraphs so I switched to Samsung internet for radio reference website and in addition to picking Dark theme on the site I also picked Dark theme for Samsung internet.

I found that the broadcastify website did not work properly on Samsung internet so that one I put on Chrome. There is no option for Dark theme for my playlists.

This won't help the OP, they're not a DB admin. Post #6 is the answer

I use a plugin called dark reader in Firefox to style the Database and Wiki "dark".

Guys, the OP says he found the dark mode settings and did not like it, due to his eyes. However, there may be others reading this thread for answers, so please continue to contribute.

If it means anything LOL, I've been using dark mode on the forums, wiki and the database for so long that when I use someone else's phone or computer and Google something on radio reference I can't read it in the light mode.

Much too much strain on my eyes, I would be lost without dark mode.😉

My contribution here would be the use of Tampermoney and a script to change colors to what ever one wants.

I used one many years ago but have long forgot its name.

You can invert colors in the Firefox settings as well, and other browsers may support that, but it can be without its quirks...

Side notes:

Be careful installing scripts. I'd paste it into your favorite AI and simply ask what it does and is it safe.

And speaking of AI, you could have AI code you a script.

For those using the Dark Theme for the "Forums" this can be set under your Preferences when you are logged in...
Everytime you log in it will use the dark theme then...
This is only for the forums not the database...
