Title: Blackout: Dark Mode Widget Author: Jose Sotelo Published: June 28, 2019 Last modified: December 13, 2020 --- Search plugins ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/blackout-darkmode-widget_303030.svg) # blackout-darkmode-widget By [Jose Sotelo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/josesotelocohen/) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/blackout-darkmode-widget/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/blackout-darkmode-widget/#reviews) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/blackout-darkmode-widget/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/blackout-darkmode-widget/) ## Description This plugin has been closed as of January 28, 2022 and is not available for download. Reason: Guideline Violation. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/463eaf348aa3b5f555c16cc34c8edbcd6d763b7a57d169bb0a8e4a5ed36f80ed? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Instructions are beyond worthless](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/instructions-are-beyond-worthless/)󠁿 [cedialogs](https://profiles.wordpress.org/cedialogs/) March 1, 2021 This would be a 5-star review if this plugin did any of the things it is claimed to be able to do. After doing the setup no widget or buttons appeared anywhere in the website. The instructions called for pasting some javascript but gave no clue about where or in what file to paste the script! Instructions on what file to put the widget in or where in the theme were similarly missing. Clearly, neither this plugin nor its documentation had been tested before the plugin was released. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3926978283d0f29e8ce1287c42d6dccdf6f48a21f79224e1bbc74b66030b1148? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[need improvement](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nedd-improvement/)󠁿 [ibrahimg](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ibrahimg/) September 6, 2020 it is a good dark mode plugin but needs improvements. Why does it change the colors of images and Google ads? Also, add a toggle. If you can improve that then I think it would be a perfect dark mode plugin. Thanks. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d984c4fbfc97c0b2e8632c50f213366606c98a5677a9fa695b511ca991606b2a? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very nice](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-nice-1430/)󠁿 [o28o](https://profiles.wordpress.org/o28o/) April 1, 2020 would be great that there also will be an option to use this plugin as a toggle, not only as a widget. and some manual or help documentation could be great. just found some info on the site. but wasn’t able to solve my case. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dfb2c71a3c592714df8d8dda7dd085518295911e5125fecd5a30a95581c0e60c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Saves the eyes of the readers](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/saves-the-eyes-of-the-readers/)󠁿 [tomekwsrod](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tomekwsrod/) March 19, 2020 1 reply This plugin is useful and works well. I wish Wordpress included such day / night system by default. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6e2d029719d0754cd12d7e265a9bb9f001879ff715cb9ac2ba27cd9830759b72? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[A must have!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-must-have-375/)󠁿 [spresy](https://profiles.wordpress.org/spresy/) January 29, 2020 With this plug it is much easier to read text on a monitor or display. A toggle as a pre setting for al pages, would be even better. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/39fb70d433452ee783e51cfca9613817f521b314b7754bcece7e680e1108da63? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[It’s the plugin i’ve been waiting on for years!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/its-the-plugin-ive-been-waiting-on-for-years/)󠁿 [laracroft4eva](https://profiles.wordpress.org/laracroft4eva/) September 28, 2019 1 reply Incredible! I’ve been waiting for this for so long, I can’t believe this finally exists so that my blinding white website can have a dark mode for sensitive eyes, including mine. I got some photos that look like they’re negatives (inverted colors) but i think i can fix that by removing my background picture. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
