I'm really glad to see that the site is coming back to life, especially with all the various sections integrated so I can stay logged into everything. 🙂

I know time and resources are limited, but when you have time I really need a light theme with bigger text. Even on a large monitor it's really tough to read the current color scheme; even worse, I have protanomaly ("weak red") so a lot of things are very difficult to read. I adjusted this example so that people with normal color vision should be able to see it how it looks to me:

(Ops, the forum says I can't attach images.)

I've started working on CSS overrides for a lot of the text elements but that's a painstaking process.

I would also LOVE a "Mark All Forums Read" button so that I can clear all the new labels so that I don't have to keep checking subforums for old posts I'm not interested in.

Anyway, thanks again and much luck.

You should be able to attach images I’ll look into why you couldn’t , and I’ll work on theme options

Ok so, image posting fixed, there are now full theme and text size controls at the top of the forum (imported over from our library area) All four new themes now clear WCAG AA. Softdark is the only one below, and only because it’s the untouched current look. and to the right of that a read all button . :) let me know if there’s more .
