# 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.
|
|
|
|
## Admin-log
|
|
|
|
Source of truth: `configs/forgejo/assets/` + `configs/forgejo/README.md`.
|
|
|
|
## Note
|
|
|
|
Browser cache may hold old CSS (`Cache-Control: max-age=21600`). Hard-reload or private window if UI looks stale.
