I guess your plugin relies on CodeMirror. Please update your current implemented version to version 6 as soon as possible.

This will insure that your plugin becomes more accessible for blind and visual impaired users, since all previous versions had some huge issues while this editor was a part of the plugin.

The user couldn’t use the editor screen and edit post content at all since there were some huge accessibility issues that ment the field wasn’t working well for screenreader users.

I will be happy to testdrive any PR-build if you are interested.

Thanks in advance

This important differentiation is missing in the description!

I have not installed and tested this plugin.

But from reading the info available and looking at the demonstration video, I think this is what is happening behind the scenes.

This is a very important fact to know, whether pages edited with this Editor end up in Markdown syntax in the database, and hence always need to run their own parser & renderer, or whether Markdown look & feel is only used as the presentation form in the editor, but behind the scene this gets transformed to standard HTML and WordPress macros (encoded as HTML comments).

Please be clear about this for your visitors. Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunally, all complains here about plugin after v4.05 also happened to me.
I tested all versions, and the worst was 4.06

After v4.06 I thought the code will work as before, and installed the v4.07.
After this version, when loading page in dark mode appears a very annoying flickering. This is also happening in v4.08 and v4.09, so i think that the latest usable version is unfortuanlly v4.05.

It seems that the good code that loaded a page without flickering is definitely gone.

Thanks,
Sergio

After activating plugin, pages at dashboard loading in their native style, after couple seconds it becomes dark. That’s so annoying, it seems that site becomes extremely slow.

This plugin was replaced with a different plugin with totally different functionality and it doesn’t even work. It should be removed from the repository.

I liked the plugin like it was before the “Markdown” update.

Everything is now black and white only. The whole design is so confusing right now because for me important colors are missing.

Also it has problems with the other plugin Raw HTML. I don’t see any colors now in the editor and now I have to turn off Dark Mode entirely.

So, the plugin is useless for me now.

I used this plugin in several projects to get an dark mode in admin area.

But with the last update the plugin is not unsable anymore. This ist not a dark mode, this is a black-and-white mode. All customers are frustrated about the new black-and-white mode, so I decided to delete it from all projects where it was used.

If I install a DarkMode plugin, I want a darkmode, I don’t want a markdown editor, I don’t want sounds in the backend, I don’t want to disable Gutenberg and I don’t want a black and white mode. I would like to have the original DarkMode plugin back.

Hello!

It’s been days and days this promo message is on top of my admin pages and is never moving away no matter how many times I close it:

“Enjoy upto 85% OFF on WP Markdown Editor. Get Your Merry Christmas Deals Now”

Would be great to remove it or at least remember my choice to ignore it ??

Thanks!

Hey folks,

Since that last update, the main feature I was attracted to is no longer working which is quite a bummer… Why make a simple feature cluttered with more features that break the one I was into?

I only use this plugin for, well, the dark mode! For my admin environment and my post editor personal experience.

While the admin panel is still on dark mode and yaye, there’s a switch, my post editor is painfully white (and the switch disappears from admin bar).

Do you have a solution for me?

Thank you

Hi,

There is no explanation for install the dark mod !

How we have to do please ?

“Upload the plugin package to the plugins directory. ????????????”
Login to the dashboard and activate the plugin.
Go to your profile and enable Dark Mode.”

Hi,

Is there a way to force dark mode (on multisite)?

I’d like all users to use it by default as I’m disabling admin_color_scheme

Thank you.

This is a great plugin but there’s something that’s just consistently being ignored across releases: in dropdown menus (that is, select options) both the background and the text color are dark, and this renders the text illegible. This is not a minor issue, there are plenty of selects all over the admin area, and why nobody cares is beyond me. Checkboxes are styled this way too.

So let me lay it on you guys plain and simple: dark blue text on dark gray background doesn’t work. Please do fix it in the next release. It takes very little effort to do. Thank you.

Dark Mode plugin for the ADMIN Dashboard is causing issues with a Plugin called Rank Math.

1. Creating or editing, the Rank Math plugin won’t display SEO score value as well as it won’t show the needed areas that are to be fixed while Dark Mode is active.

2. Deactivating Dark Mode fixes the issues. I have 2 screen captures that illustrate the exact issue above.

Hello,
If my site is already in dark mode, and I want the switch to make it light mode, is it possible?

Thank you!

An FYI here. The Jetpack stats in the dashboard, if using Jetpack, does not play well with this plugin. The background to the dashboard widget remains white and clashes with everything

Again, just an FYI ??

Can I suggest also toning down the reds of links like the “delete post” one? I’ve fiddled a bit and am suure this is NOT yet optimal, but here’s what I use:

#all-plugins-table .plugins a.delete:hover,
#delete-link a.delete:hover,
#media-items a.delete-permanently:hover,
#media-items a.delete:hover,
#nav-menu-footer .menu-delete:hover,
#search-plugins-table .plugins a.delete:hover,
.file-error, .plugins a.delete:hover,
.row-actions .delete a:hover,
.row-actions .spam a:hover,
.row-actions .trash a:hover,
.submitbox .submitdelete:hover,
abbr.required, span.required {
  color: #dc3232;
}

#all-plugins-table .plugins a.delete,
#delete-link a.delete,
#media-items a.delete-permanently,
#media-items a.delete:hover,
#nav-menu-footer .menu-delete,
#search-plugins-table .plugins a.delete,
.file-error, .plugins a.delete,
.row-actions .delete a,
.row-actions .spam a,
.row-actions .trash a,
.submitbox .submitdelete {
  color: #ff7777;
}

Hello
Your plugin is good! Thank you for creating it and making it available for free.
However, make it on the wp-admin dashboard is fine.
But it is missing on the global site visitor side.
My question is :
Is it possible to put the button in “Night Mode” accessible for public-side visitors?
It would be superb.
Can you help me ?
I can pay, for this small customization.
Thank you

Hello Daniel, Just wanted to let you know that I’d be interested in the adoption of this plugin if you haven’t already found someone.

Hi there. It is possible to enable it by default to all the users in my site?
Thanks!

hello, I have done an installation on my website [link redacted] and I would like to know if this plugin is currently working correctly. Currently not installed, but waiting to be reinstalled

• This topic was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by Andrew Nevins. Reason: Your link looks spammy, put it in the appropriate field next time

Per https://webkit.org/blog/8475/release-notes-for-safari-technology-preview-68/, macOS has introduced a web-facing method for altering a website’s appearance based on the color scheme (light/dark) of the OS.

I would love to see this plugin adopt this method as the primary factor in determining when the dark styling is applied.

I’m thinking that this OS-level support (without any server implications/resource requirements) would garner more official support from the WP team.

Hi,
In common.css there is a class for .alternate at line 664. It would need an update from this plugin, like:

.dark-mode .striped > tbody > :nth-child(odd),
.dark-mode ul.striped > :nth-child(odd),
.dark-mode .alternate {
       background-color: #23282d;
}

You can test it with this plugin at the dashboard:

I like the plugin idea, it’s just awesome to have the possibility of choosing an alternative dark version of our WordPress to prevent eye fatigue and to make work during night more confortable.

Now, I have two doubts.

First: Will be this plugin compatible with Gutenberg? I.e. to have a dark themed Gutenberg version. This would be so nice, because if is not added, the plugin would loose it’s main purpose (I think)

Second doubt, but it’s like the first one… Why the Visual tab on the Classic Editor is not darken? This breaks the esthetic and makes the plugin a bit dysfunctional. For example, If I want to use this plugin for writing during night, this white window will contrast with the dark theme and would make the writting less confortable.

What do you think about that? Are they future plans to change?

Thanks a lot,

Pablo

Hi, can you make the dark mode be activated from the admin-bar? because it is more comfortable and quick to do it from there.
I had to spend several minutes until I knew that this option was activated within the user options.
Could you add a switch option to activate it quickly?

Please provide more screen-shots. E.g. Plugin page, page/post editor, settings etc.

The current screen-shots effectively demonstrate the colour scheme variation but it would be better to additionally see the end result of the plugin more completely without having to install it.

Hey,

As you may be aware, the Automatic Dark Mode feature has been removed as of version 2.0 so we can focus on ensuring Dark Mode is ready for inclusion in Core. Whilst there is still much to do, not having to support this feature will enable more work in other areas.

Don’t worry though! You can still use the automatic feature by installing the Automatic Dark Mode plugin that is available on GitHub. For more information on how to install and use it, please check out the Wiki page.

If you have any questions, please do ask!

Dark mode works on the Text editor but not the visual one. any way to also make this visual editor dark?

Hi there,

Got a notification from WordFence saying the pugin was removed from the repo. What’s that all about?

Hi, I would like to be able to turn it on all over the web globally. For all users. As an option. It should be added. Thank you

Thanks for trying out Dark Mode!

If you’ve installed Dark Mode on your website and enabled it, you may notice that right now it doesn’t do a lot. The plugin is currently under active development to make sure the entire WordPress dashboard is transformed into darker colours.

That being said, if you want to help convert the dashboard into a new, darker colour scheme – please head over to the GitHub repository and submit a pull request as contributions are more than welcome! The hope is that one day, Dark Mode will be available in Core by default.

Plugin Authors:
Many plugins use custom CSS to style their plugins interface. In order for you to include a Dark Mode stylesheet – you can use the doing_dark_mode action hook which is fired whenever a user has enabled Dark Mode in their profile settings.

For everything else, ask away!
