Verregende bloem van een Helenium 'El Dorado'. 22-07-2023. (d.j.b).jpg的深色模式错误

Issue Description c:Template:Information NOT dark mode in filepage, c:MediaWiki:Filepage.css needs to be modified--Shizhao (talk) 07:20, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@Mike Peel could you please help with this one? Jon (WMF) (talk) 19:11, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
Sorry for the ping. Looks like this was already taken care of in https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3AFilepage.css&diff=899534156&oldid=883797078 . Jon (WMF) (talk) 19:15, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

DeletionHeader dark mode error

Issue Description the template is illegible with current colours. note a similar issue with {{Lua }} and {{Uses TemplateStyles }}, which both use {{TemplateBox }}. JnpoJuwan (talk) 23:35, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

c:Template:DeletionHeader is fixed Shizhao (talk) 06:23, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
c:Template:Lua, c:Template:Uses TemplateStyles and c:Template:TemplateBox are still not fixed--Shizhao (talk) 03:10, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
@Shizhao: First two seem to rely on c:Module:Message box. This might be fixed by a simple import from enwiki, but I'm probably not qualified to do that. Matrix (talk) 11:06, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
First two are fixed now Matrix (talk) 07:25, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

YouTube CC-BY/i18n/en dark mode error

Issue Description

Gray background, not compatible with dark mode--Shizhao (talk) 13:09, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

🐛 Erreur de mode sombre Don-vip

Issue Description When I reply to a message on my talk page in dark mode / vector 2022, the response text (.ns-talk dl) is using color text rgb(234, 236, 240) on white background, which makes the text almost unreadable.

See example here https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Don-vip#Null_edit_after_SDC_edit

I can't reproduce your problem, maybe you use some js script?--Shizhao (talk) 07:33, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
cc @Don-vip: SCP-2000 (talk) 16:28, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I don't think so. In the display preferences on Commons, next to Vector 2022, the links to custom CSS and JS are red, so I guess I'm using the default parameters? Is there something else to check that might impact the rendering? Don-vip (talk) 17:20, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
@Don-vip: Could you please provide the screenshot if possible (you may upload the screenshot to imgbb.com), and have you tried to use the safemode? Thanks. SCP-2000 (talk) 04:15, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
Sure, here is a screenshot on my laptop (with Firefox 129): https://ibb.co/ZHdGqpX
I got the same display on mobile (Firefox on Android). I asked to someone else on Discord and at least one other person has the same rendering as well.
With safemode=1 the display is correct, but I can't point where the problem comes from with my account settings :'( Don-vip (talk) 08:02, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
@Don-vip: Thanks for your information. It is caused by Threaded Discussion gadget, and you may disable it. SCP-2000 (talk) 15:12, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
@SCP-2000 Fantastic, it works now :) Thanks a lot for your support! Don-vip (talk) 18:20, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Welcome dark mode error

Issue Description When in a div with a grey background (to create emphasis or popout in a page) dark mode converts the text to white, but the div remains grey, making it difficult to read  Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.219.238.127 (talkcontribs) 18:45, 14 October 2024

Problem appears to be fixed already. Tvpuppy (talk) 21:29, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

Marienkapelle an der Mollner Buseckerstraße 3.jpg Dunkelmodus-Fehler

Der ImageAnnotator lässt sich im Dunkelmodus zwar aufrufen, aber nicht bearbeiten. Dazu muss ich in den hellen Modus wechseln.

De minimis dark mode error

When looking at Commons:De minimis while set to automatic dark mode, the 'Copyright Rules' infobox is still rendered in light mode, rendering the attached image's caption unreadable. Hullian111 (talk) 18:30, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Problem fixed. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump/Technical#Fixed. Tvpuppy (talk) 21:26, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

Preferences dark mode error

Issue Description light mode will not update to dark mode  Preceding unsigned comment added by TelloGall (talkcontribs) 21:51, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

The preference settings seem to be working fine for me. So I’m not sure what problem you are having. Tvpuppy (talk) 04:29, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

VN Dunkelmodus-Fehler

Issue Description This template uses two fixed background colours, light green and light grey, which I guess imitate the colours which are used by template documentation boxes. When switching to dark mode, the template documentation box adjusts colours, but the template itself does not. Example page where this template is used: Chilopoda Pizzahut2 (talk) 00:07, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

I have added dark mode colors to the template, so it should be working fine now. Tvpuppy (talk) 13:06, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

How to adapt Babel extension on Commons for dark mode

Issue Description The old babel boxes like c:Template:User en are fine with the dark mode but the boxes generated using Extension:Babel are not readable in the dark mode. I could not find where to change the layout of the boxes generated by this extension. GPSLeo (talk) 18:07, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Hauptseite Dunkelmodus-Fehler

Issue Description On the Wikimedia Commons Hauptseite (Main Page) the headings with the neon colored background bars are barely visible. (e.g. "Picture of the day", etc.)  Preceding unsigned comment added by MethAnkauf2 (talkcontribs) 16:39, 19 April 2025

The main page looks fine to be in dark mode, I don’t seem to have the problem you are describing. Either I didn’t understand your problem or maybe it has been fixed. Tvpuppy (talk) 04:29, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
It hasn’t been fixed. The first heading looks like this in dark mode:
Bild des Tages
which is indeed barely readable. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 22:28, 25 May 2025 (UTC)
Ah ok, I think I know what the problem is, the color is working correctly in “dark mode”, but it is not working correctly in “automatic mode”. I will see if I can find what is causing the problem. Tvpuppy (talk) 12:13, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
I found what caused the problem and has put in a edit request (because the page is protected), see c:Template talk:Main Page Template/styles.css#Dark mode colors not working in “automatic mode”. Tvpuppy (talk) 12:22, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
The problem should be fixed now. Tvpuppy (talk) 11:35, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

Upload Dunkelmodus-Fehler

On the page, where you can update an existing file, the Text in the Box "File changes" is unreadable aswell as the banner when no text is entert.  Preceding unsigned comment added by The Other Karma (talkcontribs) 12:42, 15 May 2025

The upload form has different code for different languages, so some languages has working dark mode, but some don’t. There was some discussion before about unifying all the code (at least the dark mode element of it), but I'm not sure that would be done soon. I assuming you are talking about the Deutsch (Sie-Form) version, so I will look into that to see what I can do. Tvpuppy (talk) 15:15, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
I just realised the page is protected, so I cannot edit it, maybe you can put a request back in Commons (maybe in Village Pump) so an admin or a template editor can help you with it. Tvpuppy (talk) 22:00, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
