Issues with the colours and settings. #178

Closed MadBloris closed 1 year ago

MadBloris commented 1 year ago

I was using Mangane, and it worked fine. I updated last week and ran into problems with a few things.

It looks like this.

You'll notice the brand colour and accent are set.

The mangane config page does not seem to save anything if I change any settings. I can't manually edit the json data on the page, and if I do it via the terminal it does not seem to change a thing.

I think your problem comes from the fact you're using black as accent color... Therefore it's not legible in dark mode.

MadBloris commented 1 year ago

I dont seem to be able to change it via the mangane config, if I manually do it (I just cp soapbox.example.json to test) it is still the same.

Is the problem solved if you change your accent color for something more readable ?

A good practice is also to follow the WCAG recommendations http://colorsafe.co/

I've tried using the defaiult soapbox.json and it still remains. I CTRL + F5 after doing so. Deleted cookies, and tried a different browser.

It seems it is not pulling some of the changes (weird). I have no idea how to debug it on akkoma though

Cl0v1s commented 1 year ago

Where do you copy the example.json ? In the case of a use with Akkoma, the data is stored on the backend, and the JSON file doesn't seem to be used.

If I copy the soapbox.example.json to soapbox.json it seems to pull some settings from there

It has just occurred to me that I am running develop and not stable, could that be the cause?

Same issue here with a brand new installation :/ (even with light theme):

installed akkoma with otp releases because ubuntu/debian :/

Ha! I am glad it was not just me!

I never found a workaround. I recently reinstalled my server with 20.04 and used nginx instead of apache, which I was using before.

I plan to play about one day, but for now, my akkoma is just running the pleroma-fe. I will post back if I find a solution

AdrianPaulCarrieres commented 1 year ago

It worked normally on "from source" install (not using OTP) with nginx on Ubuntu and Arch a few weeks ago at least The only difference, for me, would maybe be Akkoma releases or the OTP release

MadBloris commented 1 year ago

Mine is from source.

Still no luck with a fresh install. I didn't think there would be, but I had to upgrade / reinstall anyway

I just finished spinning up my own Akkoma-instance today and decided to give this frontend a go. It's very hard on the eyes to read black text on a dark background.. (it started like that when I switched it on)

Fixed with this issue. I guess they were linked? - https://github.com/BDX-town/Mangane/issues/202
