Midnight Skin, Deals Load in Normal Skin

5,337 8,066 June 4, 2025 at 08:50 PM
I have the Midnight skin selected (Dark Mode) and am using the redesign. Previously the deals and posts would load with a Dark Mode skin, a few days ago any deal or post that I click on loads in the light mode instead.

Same issue. I enabled my dark reader addon, but the skin is easier. Hopefully it gets fixed.

Thank you for taking the time to report this. I just tested this and while some pages do initially flash white, they do switch to midnight mode for me. It sounds like the pages are staying in light mode for you. Is that correct? Can you please share a screenshot? You can either attach it here or email it into [email protected]

Thank you, that helps.

It's a little bit confusing, but we have a couple different styles of threads which can sort of be summed up as deal thread (Hot Deals) vs non-deal thread (this forum). I was able to recreate this issue in a non-deal thread (this thread), but deal threads are in midnight mode for me.

Do threads in Hot Deals load in the midnight mode for you? For example, is this thread in midnight or light mode? https://slickdeals.net/f/18366970-40-49-super-mario-party-jamboree-at-woot

Im having the same issue as OP. The front page is midnight, the forum main page is midnight but deal pages and threads in the forum are all in retina burning white. Your link appears in light mode.

edit: When I click to edit my post, its in midnight.

This is also true for me if I edit this post it shows midnight.


I have cleared cache, hard reload, logged out an back in, I have switched to default theme refreshed screens and switched back to midnight - same results main threads all white.
My main browser is Chrome, however I just tried this in Firefox with the same results - so it seems to be attached to my SD profile somehow.

Thanks!
