Hi Claire, I'm really liking the colours and format of the desktop version. I'm having some usability issues when viewing on a mobile and not requesting the desktop site. I struggled to find the "unread posts" link initially and still can't see a "new replies" one. I always access the site from the .com landing page and not having the links there is a bit of an issue for me. I've also noticed that the "unread posts" page is not formatted correctly in mobile mode, the column for user is about twice as wide as the column for the thread title (leading to lots of wrapping).

95% of my browsing is using Chrome on a Samsung S20 Ultra.

Hello,

Would like dark mode too please?

Thanks

One thing I've noticed with the mobile site is that when a Youtube video has been embedded - and this might be dependent on the resolution of the embedded video - it stretches off the screen to the right, along with any text in that post and you are unable to scroll over to the right to read the text that is off screen.

I wish I had taken a screenshot when I noticed it, will do next time.

Using Firefox on Android.

Hi Claire,

Could I be enabled for dark mode please?

Thanks.

I too would like to give this a try is possible, thanks.

Hi Claire,

Could I also be enabled for dark mode?

ALSO: Could I be enabled for the mobile version of RAWK? I mostly use my phone to interact with fellow Reds on here.

Thanks!

Could I try dark mode as well please ? I use Chrome & Firefox.

TY

Could I have dark mode too please, and mobile if possible, I don't get any options to change theme in Look and Layout.

Thanks

Same here.

Greasing the wheels by becoming a site supporter always helps such requests...

Sorry, I've been away on my modly holidays... no idea who's got what or wants what in here now 😬

I've made a trello board with most of the things I could remember from these threads - https://trello.com/b/yFKah054/rawk

If there's something that's not on there that needs looking at, then let me know. I don't think anyone can add or move stuff but you should be able to view the board.

Claire. · « **Reply #52 on:** July 21, 2022, 10:34:47 pm »

Should be a fix for the youtube embeds and I've changed the background of the stickied threads on dark, may need tweaking in light as well but will have a look tomorrow.

Few people said images were a bit squiffy, can you point me at an example?

tubby · « **Reply #53 on:** July 25, 2022, 12:30:48 pm »

Claire, did you make changes to the 'new' icons? They look a little different for me on my mobile view, but I can see them fine. However, on my desktop view, they're barely visible:

Just popping into say I wasn't keen on the green at first, but it's really grown on me, great addition to the desktop view.

If it's on trial, I would like to sign up.

ha, it was a bit of a random choice that, every shade of orange looked too red or eye stinging bright and I wanted something different - I did have it in dark mode as well but thought it drew too much attention.

Wabaloolah · « **Reply #60 on:** August 5, 2022, 05:40:52 pm »

I would like Dark Mode and the mobile theme if possible Claire

ChaChaMooMoo · « **Reply #61 on:** August 10, 2022, 06:57:00 pm »

Oopsie. I clicked the brighter mode to check the comparison and lost the dark mode in the process. I can't seem to get it back.

Can you enable it for me once more? I liked it.

Dark mode if possible please!

ToneLa · « **Reply #64 on:** September 3, 2022, 10:47:17 am »

Ello Claire, I have used DarkReader so long I am a dark mode native

I do QA for a living, would love to get this dark mode enabled and help out, I read RAWK on my blower and my tablet and my PC, usually Firefox

happy to help out in a bugspotting way

ChaChaMooMoo · « **Reply #65 on:** September 4, 2022, 09:45:32 pm »

Have to say I like it.

It's pleasant on the eyes and doesn't disturb my eyes (and my missus) while browsing on the bed.

Elmo! · « **Reply #66 on:** September 11, 2022, 10:24:26 pm »

Claire, any chance you could fix the Spoiler tags so they also appear dark? They appear as white boxes when opened, which is rather glaring. Thanks!

Should be better now, will have to do the icon later.

There are dark and mobile versions to test? Can I sign up to them please?

Could I possibly test the dark mode too, please?

ToneLa · « **Reply #76 on:** September 19, 2022, 10:04:43 am »

So far so good. Like the mobile experience, that's what I've used most. Feels very weird for RAWK on mobile to feel modern

Definitely easier on the eyes.

Claire. · « **Reply #77 on:** September 23, 2022, 09:41:59 am »

still some things I need to fix and some tweaks to that mobile view I want to make. I hate the blank space when someone doesn't have an avatar but then I also hate it when they're not in line. The table is hiding too much I think but it's an arsehole because if I allow more cols to show then everything looks squished. Only changing css so some options are limited. What I wouldn't give for some react or angular components here
