  Hello Beth,

  I have attached a really informative link on how to enable dark mode on your WordPress admin dashboard.

  Hope this helps.

  Thank you. This requires that I upgrade to a business plan though as I am currently running a basic account and can’t install plugins.

  Hi there,

  There’s no dark mode in WordPress.com, but you can change the dashboard’s color scheme to a darker one by going to your Account Settings page. Here’s a direct link to that page:
