  desktop mac app says i cannot install dark mode plugin with a free account, this should be an accessibility setting available in the UI for free. it is discrimination against those with eye conditions. i already have a dark them on my site, i need a dark mode for the dashboard.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can set the color scheme of your site’s dashboard from your site’s User>Profile tab

  Remember to click the Update Profile button there at the bottom of the page.

  I had already tried that. It only changes the color of the menus and sidebar of the dashboard, the area where the main posts are is too white(bright). I reverted to using the browser editor and using a chrome flag to force webpages to use dark mode (color inversion)and just toggle it off when I am done editing my blog.

  Thanks for sharing your solution. There are also browser extensions, like Stylus (NAYY) that can do this if you know CSS.

  But, yes, I agree that there should be a “Dark Mode” available for the dashboard itself, so I’ve flagged your thread as a “feature request”. No promises that anything will happen, but the request is now out there. :)
