Great theme! Reminds me of a cake I dig

version 2.2
Last release in 2018. The update is up on webstore, but could take a few hours to arrive in your installs.
This release fixes the white flash on custom themes. Previously when a custom theme loaded, the color variables needed a little time to kick in. I made some code changes which address this problem. I couldn't get it to disappear completely, as the header still slightly flashes two thirds of the time, but the flash on the body should be gone completely. At least I hope so, it's the way it behaves on my installation. Feedback is appreciated.
I also made a few updates targeting the edit area for custom themes. The color inputs look a lot nicer now and the theming should be more consistent overall.
What I forgot to mention in the 2.0 release is that you can use the
TAB
key in the User CSS input now, which makes it easier writing correctly formatted CSS directly. The input will translate a tab to 4 spaces, which makes it compatible with text editors.Another point we haven't really talked about in detail are translations. The language being used is dependent on your browser language. If you have set one language in Vivaldi, but want to use another language for the Forum mod, this isn't possible. That's standard behaviour of chrome extensions, which don't allow choosing the language in the extension settings, but will always read it out from the browser settings. And of course you have to set your desired language in Vivaldi Forum settings too.
Looking at the activity of communities on Vivaldi Forum, I believe a Russian and a Japanese translation would make sense. So if you speak Russian/Japanese and English, I would be delighted if you considered a translation. The only thing I can offer in return is credits in the extension, which should bring pride, fame and fortune (in this exact order).
Happy New Year in advance!

@luetage Thanks a lot for the new version. We did receive a Xmas version and now a New Year's version!
Happy New Year to all VF Mod contributors (and to anyone else reading this message!). -
@Ornorm You forgot to mention all the VFM users not reading this message. Don't they deserve a great new year and all the best too? Shouldn't all their wishes and dreams come true in 2019? You're lucky they haven't read your message. If I was one of them, I would feel left out.

Oh no no nooooooo. They are the Unclean, the Other, the Unbelievers. Come the Revolution, they'll be the first up against the wall... or second, after the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation Marketing Executives of course.

@potmeklecbohdan Thanks for having taken the necessary time to read my message until the end
I believe @luetage was a bit blinded by the brightness of all the fireworks he saw yesterday
I wish you the best for 2019 : stay or become yourselves, find or cultivate happiness, share the joy and dive into your dreams. -

@luetage It's my firm belief that there's very very little in Life [, the Universe, & Everything] that can't be beneficially viewed through the clarifying lens of HHGTTG, with Monty Python as failsafe backup. Whatever does not fit here, is ipso facto of such little merit as to be safely dismissable.

@LonM Sorry for my stupid question: how can I import them? Save as .json and then?
-
@burbuja Copy a theme code, go to settings extension, click Import, paste it.

@burbuja Like this in the settings:
-
Quick update version 2.3
Fixes for pagination on all themes, code background color fix for theme machine.No one seems to have noticed this broke, so I guess we're fine
-
@luetage I noticed some changes regarding pagination (a blue background), with some inconsistencies (sometimes a blue background, sometimes the real background), hence I was not sure if there was some kind of bug (a change in the forum) or something wrong I did (silly me). Anyway, thanks a lot to remedy to something we didn't mention.

@hlehyaric Next time please do complain
And look @LonM, after 2 months he's still live streaming how to import themes, that's what I call dedication. -
Was there an update of this mod recently?
I'm suddenly getting a different and smaller font and as far as I can see this is nothing (beside in global settings) I have control of, right? -
@goedl What theme are you using?

@goedl What theme are you using?
I don't know. A dark one. Looking at the configure page I think I remember that I selected (long time ago) "Sprucey Bonus Dark".
Playing around now I'm neither getting my familiar look and feel nor the one why I made my posting.
But I think I can live with the "new" "Sprucey Bonus Dark". At least the font is again Arial but the size still could be bigger for my taste.
