The My Forums list and the favorites listed on the Quick Links are separate lists that are managed separately. Think of Quick Links as a favorites bar.

Boat, try this workaround...click this:

Love this but this actually makes the problem of too much white even worse, it's too harsh. On the old version, those links had the board color surrounding them. It needs to be broken up with softer colors like the board colors.

I suggested a fix with edited screenshots on the previous page.

I'm just saying that quite a few social media sites including twitter and Reddit have night mode options for people who don't like the harsh glare of the bright white.

You could give users the option to turn on night mode in settings and correspond it to board colors or just stick with a simple navy blue color like Twitter uses.

It's easier on the eyes.

Night mode kicks in on my iPhone settings but it is for anything I view. Are you wanting a Tigerdroppings specific night mode?

I realize that white is a good thing generally, let's add some color to the background

I would like to see stats on the traffic to the 9 boards listed at the top, compared to the rest, after one month.

ETA: Compared to the ratio before Beta

How?

I'm not seeing anything in iPhone settings.

Yes.

The Harsh glare of white is not good for the eyes in darker settings and night mode would be one impressive addition to TD just on the coding alone.

It's gotten rave reviews on Twitter and a lot of people use it as their default now.

I do this both ways. When it's a huge downvote, I tell her I trolled the board and rustled huge amount of jimmies. She usually rolls her eyes, and makes a comment about how she married a nerd. I then remind her that nerds have bigger paychecks. We both have a good laugh.

I'm actually starting to get used to it now but I agree on too much white.

And I'm still leaving my avatar up as protest.

It's like everything is formatted in a single column. So, I have to scroll through headings, etc to get to a post. I think some others are experiencing it also.

FYI. Everything looks fine on mobile. I'm on iPhone 7 with updated IOS if that matters.

Swipe up on the iPhone at menu to get that taskbar to appear. There is a option for "Night Shift: Off/On"

I'm serious. I liked the sidebars better when they had color. Now I am looking at a washed out looking website with very little color. Aside from the header at the top, doesn't really look like an LSU website.
