I've added a fair bit more spacing, and even more for low-width mobile devices (<=540px).

I've instead combined Roundo Light and Roundo Darko into one theme with mode switch icons primarily for these two reasons:
- It is the best way to implement the third mode: auto-detection of the user's OS colour scheme preference (via CSS). Trying to detect the user's preference via Javascript and switching themes based on that preference would, in my assessment, be messy and error-prone.
- It requires excessive maintenance to support two separate themes.

I'm not sure what's causing that. Persistence is working fine for me. Note that the persistence mechanism differs between logged in members and guests. For members, persistence is implemented via a custom user setting, so, if you change the mode on one device, it will change on all other devices on which you're logged in (when you next load a page on those devices). For guests, persistence is implemented via a cookie. It applies only to the browser on which the guest is browsing.
Perhaps you switched between accessing as a member and as a guest, or perhaps you were accessing as a guest and your iPhone browser deletes cookies when you close it?
Otherwise, I'm happy to try to debug this issue with you if you manage to identify a recipe to reliably reproduce it.

I've solved this problem by switching to a small, square logo on low-width devices (again, <=540px).

Good to know.
(2023-02-09, 06:46 PM)Typoz Wrote: [ -> ]A brief comment, the new dark style of the Roundo theme has some text which is virtually invisible against the background. That's the same sort of issue with low-contrast as occurred with the 'Light' theme.
Yep, I've noticed that too, in particular, the dropdown box text (prior to dropping them down), and date-times. I'll try to resolve those at some point. In the meantime, please let me know of any other text that you notice which is problematic in this way.

[...]
I found that display quite incomprehensible, a lot of scraps of information scattered over the display with no sense of what any of it meant.
Later in the day I found I could get the same effect on windows by changing the width of the window.
Yep, my best guess, without carefully examining the stylesheets, is that this styling is applied to tables at widths of 1200px and below, because there is only so far that a table can be "squished" before it reaches its minimum width and starts to extend horizontally beyond the browser's page width, necessitating horizontal scrolling, which is not appropriate for a properly responsive (mobile-friendly) design. I guess/understand that the styling turns a two-dimensional table into a one-dimensional column, taking table cells from left to right and then top to bottom, and omitting any table header rows.
I agree that when it's applied, the result lacks comprehensibility (even, to an extent, when you understand how it was applied). I am open to ideas as to how to do it better. In the meantime, I think that it kicks in at way too large a width (again: 1200px), and will experiment to try to find a more appropriate width.

Again, I can't reproduce this, and, again, I am happy to try to debug it with you if you can reliably reproduce it.

Hmm, that's happened to me too, two or three times - I dismissed it as probably having something to do with all the tinkering I was doing, but apparently, given that you've also experienced it, there's more to it than that. I can't reproduce it at the moment though.

Huh. I'm not sure how that happened. I doubt that the theme was responsible for it though, at least not directly. As per my offers to Max, I'm happy to try to debug this with you if you find a way to reliably reproduce it.

Did you check the Theme Selector again, and, if so, was it correctly showing "Roundo Light" or was it, again, incorrectly showing "MyBB Default"?
(2023-02-10, 11:07 AM)David001 Wrote: [ -> ]Also, before there was an alerts panel with an option to remove all alerts.
There still is. Clicking "Alerts ([num])" in the header (or after clicking the "☰ Menu" if you're on a mobile device) pops up the Alerts modal box, at the bottom of which you can click one of Mark All Read, Delete Read Alerts, and Delete All Alerts, or, you can click View Alerts, where, on the page that loads, you have access to the same links.

How are you judging that they are not cancelled?
