Glacier Theme is a modern theme that supports dark mode.

light mode

dark mode

It is still under development and the design may change significantly with updates.
This theme was inspired by the Horizon theme.

Thank you for your request! I realize it’s probably difficult to see as is, so I’ll fix it tomorrow. (I’m going to sleep now.)

I like the theme, but the full-width is too large for high resolution and wide screens:

When viewing a post, having all the main content off-center is a bit weird:

Excellent theme, I really love it!

Awesome!!!

There’s a new bug report though… Only seems to happen on safari for mobile devices, there’s added borders that make it hard to actually use it nicely. Doesn’t seem to happen on other devices. It’s also replicable on MacOS, so it’s a safari thing.

edit:
I am told that

Chrome Android is also the same. Not just Safari

Hi, i just updated the theme, but it does not solve the issue, the 2 spacings are too wide

To improve visibility on desktops, we’ve added some spacing. Would you like the option to adjust this in the settings?

Yeah, it’s great if I can adjust it!!

It would be very good if it could be adjusted. Currently, I have too much space on my 21:9 screen.

I’ve made it configurable in the settings! Please give it a try.

Edit: I regret to inform you that per-user configuration is not supported.

Excellent! I can confirm that issue is no longer present <3 awesome work as always!!

Another bug reported is that the β€œchat” input disappears when you type and hide the keyboard once (and in my video you basically can see the input dissappears even when i type)

only seems to happen when welcome banner is in use.

Comparing it with Horizon Theme, I see that the welcome banner is not visible on my phone, could it be that the problem?

I’ve tested this on my systems (Windows, Android) and haven’t encountered the issue. It may be isolated to iOS.

Android was seen too, but you need the welcome banner enabled , see how on the video you see the β€œwelcome back, search” box ? In foundation I don’t have that when on mobile

I’m having trouble reproducing the issue with the welcome banner in my environment. Could you please provide the steps you took to reproduce it?

I’ve reached out on a private message with a link to invite you to the forum so you can take a look if you want

Excellent! completely resolved!

I’ve substantially revised the design of the topic!
What are your thoughts?

Hello, could you add an option to place the β€œCreate New Topic” button in the upper left corner (like in Horizon)?

I am currently in the process of implementing this, but I may be delayed due to unforeseen complexities. I apologize for any inconvenience.

I extend my apologies for the delay!
The implementation is now complete and available for activation via the settings.

Please excuse the Japanese text in the images.

Thank you for your efforts.
Currently, there are three bugs/requests:

  1. When checking β€œShow new topics” in the upper left, could the β€œNew Topic” button in the upper right be hidden only on the desktop version (while remaining visible on the mobile version)?
  2. I would like to add a setting item to the front end so that the button text can be freely changed (or, for Chinese i18n support, I would like β€œζ–°ε»Ίθ―ι’˜β€ translated as β€œζ–°θ¦γƒˆγƒ”γƒƒγ‚―β€).
  3. When viewing a topic, pressing β€œNew Topic” does not open the posting screen.

It’s a small tweak, but we’ve subtly changed the shadow color of the topic list when in light mode.
