Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Onyx Dark Mode Switcher

No. Dark mode is on as soon as you activate the plugin, and the switch button appears on your site straight away. Everything else is optional.

Yes. Onyx does not depend on your theme's stylesheet. It reads the colors your pages actually render and works out the dark equivalents, so it works with any theme, including page builder layouts.

Yes, two ways. Give its CSS selector a color override on the Colors tab to set exactly the background, text and border colors you want. Or add it to "Skip Dark Mode on Selectors" on the Settings tab to leave it in its original colors.

Yes. It is stored in their browser and reapplied on their next visit. If their browser blocks storage, the switch still works for that visit, it just is not remembered.

No. It follows each visitor's own clock, so a visitor's evening is their evening wherever they are. A window that ends earlier than it starts, such as 20:00 to 06:00, runs overnight.

Yes. Open the post or page and tick "Disable dark mode on this page" in the Onyx Dark Mode box in the sidebar. To do it for an entire post type, use "Disable on Post Types" on the Settings tab.

Yes. Enter any CSS selector under "Use Custom Switch Button" on the Switch tab and clicking that element toggles dark mode. You can also add the switch to a navigation menu, or turn the floating button off entirely.

Yes, Ctrl+Shift+D, once you enable it on the Settings tab.

No. There are no third party libraries, and the admin assets load only on the plugin's own settings screen. On the front end the mode is resolved before the browser paints, which is what prevents the usual flash of white on load.

Yes. Export them to a JSON file from the Tools tab and import that file on the other site.
