I like the idea of having a dark mode in the same style/theme, especially when you're reading on dark rooms.
I did a custom style with a companion extension for a board of one of my clients some time ago precisely to accomplish that, but having it that function built-in would be nice.

Re: Ideas. Standard Style Improvements.
While I like the idea for a dark mode, there are browser extensions that sort of do this and would negate that, on top of the fact that anyone making a style would also have to figure out their dark pallete, essentially making every style two. That's a bit of additional work on their part.
I'm not sure if there's a maximum login attempt amount in place in phpbb?
Showing the typed in password would be alright.

Re: Ideas. Standard Style Improvements.
its easily doable as a toggle, since everything is scss vars found here https://github.com/phpbb/chameleon/blob ... fault.scss. But there is no way that it would be sustainable for custom themes. You could easily add a dark variable and if condition in that file. The form stuff is pointless at this point in development. Once closer we could look at it as thats all js...

Colorizeit is dead for new theme, as I said we have scss bars

Re: Ideas. Standard Style Improvements.
You could also work with transparent backgrounds, so the style could be almost a multicolor style.
Everyone can adjust the color themselves. One likes it dark, the other brighter.
I am currently testing what effects it all has on this. I once moved my experiment to my test page.
You are welcome to play with the background color. There is a lot not yet implemented in style.
I will soon put such a style in public.
The very bright areas and black are not suitable, because the contrast to the font does not change.
Here is my demo page, Style has been activated for guests.

Not sure I understand what you mean without seeing some code.

Re: Ideas. Standard Style Improvements.
Play with Developer.
Background color
Edit:
Here is a video showing what I mean. I have created two transparent backgrounds. Once white and once in black. I have applied these in the forabg and ul.forums.
In the light colors, the light font does not stand out.
In Sass you could also regulate this with the font color. Because then you could create a multicolored style, or at least almost. Also other colored background pictures are also possible. Should only serve as an incentive.

This is really the best approach though if we were to do it https://codepen.io/joebentaylor/pen/vvq ... ernews.com
