Gtk default theme bug - Githubissues

Is there an existing issue for this?

What happened?

I did something dumb, I have an older version from the fedora repo and it has no gnome shell theming option so instead of looking to see if it had be implemented in a newer version I tried to add the theming I wanted thru the custom css option using code provided by chatGPT (which I know better then that so I feel all the more stupid for it) it said it was applied and I logged out and back in and nothing was themed. I tried again without the code from got and it should not work at all! I messed around with every css file and GTK reference I knew of and final got it working again but there is one catch now, only some apps are actually excepting the theming the rest are just doing there own thing (default dark mode)! I am not a noob at this I have used Linux 8 of my 17 years of life it is one of my two passions that consume all my non school time I have used gnome since a year after I started on Linux and have been developing gnome software with Gtk 3 and 4 for almost two years now. I am at a loss what to do with this theme issue! So, sorry I know it is not really a but that is your fault and more of a user stupidity issue but I was not sure where else to look for such a specific answer to a problem involving an app that seems to have no forums around getting bypasses and fixes for issues the developers never fixed since it seams like there are absolutely no issues… unless your as dumb as I was… anyway, sorry, and thanks, and do you have any clue what I did to my self or how to fix It???

side note: it came from the fedora flatpak repo (not flat hub) but that was not an option for install source.

To Reproduce

Do dumb stuff like trying custom panel css from gradeince…

I can’t remember what the exact code snip it I added was but I will look tomorrow when I am at my laptop next and add it as a comment.

Expected behavior

It broke my entire theming system…

Oooh, first of all, shell theming cannot be done from advanced css panel, but by creating custom shell theme

You can't break theming by using extra css in advanced panel

We also have matrix and discord rooms where you can ask for help, idk what you mean by no support forums

side note: it came from the fedora flatpak repo (not flat hub) but that was not an option for install source

We don't provide Fedora flatpak package. The only officially supported package is flatpak from flathub
