    The default site theme is very bright and I prefer the dark crisp theme, is there currently a way to set a different theme as the default so I don't have to change it every time I log in?

    I'm assuming you meant "log out" here as well.

    1. If you accept cookies/site settings in your browser, the theme should persist even if you log out. It does for me - just checked.
    2. Why would you even log out in the first place?
    3. If all else fails, install Dark Reader addon for your browser.

    I assume that he want the setting be saved on the profile rather than the browser so he don't have to change the theme whenever he logs in another device. :blob_plusone:

    Thanks kenar, you said it in a why I couldn't.

    Ral, I meant both.
    1. I use strict security settings in my browsers. I also frequently use a vpn for stuff and things. By storing theme info at the account level, not the browser level, it doesn't matter what the cookie settings are or where you're connected from, you just need to log in.
    2. Why would you not log out?
    3. Thanks for this. I didn't know it existed. I'll look into it.

    Again thanks for your input, both of you!
