hello! is dark mode available "here"?

[Katie Kusjanovic]

my "personal" settings for "atlassian" does indeed have dark mode enabled.  but when i come to visit https://community.atlassian.com/<stuff> ... i'm back to the blinding daymare.  how do i get dark mode enabled when i'm on these pages?  where these == "community.atlassian.com" pages?

thanks!!

No kidding, I hope I'm just missing it, I want it, too! And then I can slink back under my dark rock...

@PJ Zaiac - are you able to add this feature request to the list?

[Lori Brown]

Think of it this way - should a customer's first thought when they come to the Community be "aah, my eyes?!?" :)

Alot of it has to do with your browser settings, I believe. I tested it with mine, and I am in dark mode for this site but it was still showing light in here. I used my "plugin" and changed the "theme" to Dynamic filter and it flip flopped the light and dark to turn the page into a dark background. Hope that helps!!

Sorry if this duplicates, I responded and now it is missing.

i have "escalated" an internal request for a darkmode extension ... i'm just surprised that community.atlassian.com "ignores" theme selection in other parts of my profile.  honestly, i'm not sure i can explain many of the words in this post ;)

[Katie Kusjanovic]

@Sara_Schneider... when you say "plugin" do you mean a browser plugin or a plugin within the atlassian metaverse?

[Sara_Schneider]

In case this helps at all!

[Sara_Schneider]

@Katie Kusjanovic I have a dark mode browser plugin for Edge because most of the time my "dark mode" wouldn't work. You may be able to change the theme to the dynamic filter without a plugin, I am not positive on that. 

[Katie Kusjanovic]

my use of browser extensions is subject to "adult supervision" ... ;)

[Sara_Schneider]

understandable lol, it has been a while since I messed with mine. If you go to the ellipsis in Edge, then click Extensions > Manage Extentions, there is a thing that says "find new extensions" or "go to the chrome web store". It's really just downloading backgrounds. There are some neat ones, dragons, beaches etc. lol.

Hi @Katie Kusjanovic 

The community pages is hosted by a 3rd party, it's not hosted by Atlassian.  I too wish for a native dark mode, as I also can not control the extensions or plugins on all the computers I work on.

[Sarah]

Unfortunately there is no dark mode when it comes to atlassian third party app and programs. You can use a creative puzzle browser extension as suggested above. 

[Lori Brown]

Same here. I think in the corporate world it's more common *not* to have control over your browser extensions. You'd think Atlassian would have some say over whether or not a dark mode is implemented, even if they don't do it themselves. And, the more sites that do have a dark mode just makes this one stick out more (painfully).
