Would it be possible for your designers to provide one, simple, consistent dark theme for EasyBlog?

One of the great features of EasyDiscuss and EasySocial is the ability to select "dark" and have them blend seamlessly with a dark-theme website. EasyBlog doesn't have such a feature. Instead it has four "Elegant" dark themes that are problematic for several reasons:

1. They are not pure dark themes; they each include a color: red, green, blue, and yellow.
2. They were never completed. They only work on the front-end of the blog. The entire dashboard area is light, making it look completely inconsistent as users move back and forth between the front- and back-ends.
3. They dark colors used in the Elegant themes are significantly lighter than the ones used in the dark themes for EasyDiscuss and EasySocial, and the style appears dated.

One of your strongest selling points is your ability to tightly integrate these three components. This is perhaps your greatest competitive advantage. As part of that strategy, It would be extremely helpful if you would please provide one, simple, consistent dark theme for EasyBlog.

Thank you
Hey there,

Thanks for the heads up on this! We'll try to get a dark theme into 5.1 but I can't promise anything as of now though.

Thank you for getting back on this issue. I'm developing multiple dark-theme websites and appreciate the tight integration of your products. In fact, the reason I recently decided to switch back to using them is precisely because of this tight integration and the potential it offers over the long run. The reason it took me so long to switch back is because of the frustration I experienced a couple of years ago trying to integrate EasyBlog into a dark-theme site.

If you could get a simple, consistent dark theme into EasyBlog 5.1, as you mentioned, it would be the tipping point that wins me over as a long-term customer.

Thanks again

I just noticed that Komento does not have a dark theme either. I was hoping to integrate all of these components quickly for multiple dark-theme sites. Don't know if this is feasible now

Hello,

Thanks for the input. I've already notified our designer about this.
