2026-07-10 — Forgejo global theme (exchange-dark)

Goal

Make https://git.hacktivism.ch look closer to https://exchange.hacktivism.ch: warm dark layout, gold + teal accents, readable text.

Done on koopa

  • Custom theme file theme-hacktivism.css (full variable set from forgejo-dark + exchange palette).
  • Installed under ~/koopa-forgejo/data/custom/public/assets/css/ (and gitea/custom mirror).
  • Logo/favicon under …/assets/img/.
  • DEFAULT_THEME = hacktivism in app.ini + compose FORGEJO__ui__*.
  • Forced DB: UPDATE "user" SET theme = 'hacktivism' (logged-in preference was still forgejo-auto).

Readability

  • Body/text cream on #1a1410; muted secondary not below ~#c9b8a0.
  • Gold primary buttons with dark label text.
  • Explicit overrides for menus, forms, code, labels, messages, footer.
