Switch and refresh browser

    Hey there,

    This is a nice and cool plugin for the community!

    However, I noticed that – sometimes – it fails to switch correctly from dark to light and back to dark again.

    That is, in some browsers, some of the colors are switched back from light to dark the wrong way.

    The issue, however, goes away the moment you refresh the page (F5).

    Is there a snippet of code that you could post here to make the switch refresh the page at the same time is switching from light to dark and vice versa?

    Having that extra function will prevent errors with dark page switching the wrong colors in all browsers.

    Let me know if you could that.

    Thanks!

    Sometimes the color discrepancy may be due to the theme css getting higher priority. It should work fine if you can set those colors to important via custom css for the elements that show the wrong color.

    Refer to this video to know how to use the “WP Dark Mode” custom CSS feature.👉 Tutorial

    Thanks.

    Hi @toukirwpdev,

    This only happens when you switch back and forth a few times with some browsers and it’s not worth taking the time to fixing color issues field by field.

    Adding a refresh value to the switch would make any coloring issues go away but I understand why you would be reluctant to volunteer the code.

    I am sure many people experience this issue only they don’t report it.

    If you want to get a tsunami of 5 star ratings, please provide that code snippet.

    I just don’t have time to work on it, but would be the first one to rate your plugin not only 5 star, but a MUST HAVE plugin.

    I don’t know why my post got deleted but I have the same issue. It’s not related to overruling CSS. After a F5 it’s solved. I agree this should be looked at and adjusted with the option of a refresh by clicking on the dark mode button.

    The developer probably believes that this issue will provide even more premium sales, so he won’t look into this. What he doesn’t know is that it’s another reason why many users (including me) won’t be giving him 5 a star rating.
