I can’t seem to switch it back to normal
The dark is awful!
Help gratefully received

Hi @GoneWithTheWin - can you please let us know which device you're using to view Mumsnet, and also which version of the site so we can hopefully sort this for you

Right then, if you click on the head icon at the right of the blue bar at the top of the screen, you'll see a drop down menu with the Dark mode option at the bottom. Tap on that and you'll be able to select Light mode, then hit Save Changes.
Hope that works for you

Oh that's odd. Rather than this being a site issue, is there a chance you've inverted the display on your iPhone? On mine, if I tap the home key quickly 3 times it inverts the colours so the display goes into dark mode. Could that be what's happened?

NB my iPhone's pretty ancient, so newer versions may have different short-cut options...

Hello @GoneWithTheWin can you look here, please, and see if it works when you toggle off:

Oh hooray @GoneWithTheWin ! Glad to have you back and be able to see you again! Just give us a shout if you have any further problems.

Hi there @Chocochoo. Sorry if it sounds like a daft question but just to eliminate it as a possibility, did you definitely press 'save' after switching to Light Mode on the toggles page?
And have you tried switching your iPhone settings to Dark and then back to Light again?
DawnMumsnet · 16/04/2024 11:56
@Chocochoo if you're still stuck on dark mode, please can you let us know which model iPhone you're using? We're trying to work out why this isn't working for you.

Hi there @Chocochoo. We've not been able to replicate this problem, nor have we seen it crop up for other users so we don't have much to go on.
Unfortunately, we aren't able to simply change this for you ourselves as the option is tracked on your device rather than through your Mumsnet account. It might be worth trying again with the toggle in the dropdown menu and perhaps zooming in and out to see if that makes tapping on 'dark mode' to toggle between the modes easier.
If not, clearing your cookies and cache would reset the value, but will also log you out so just make sure you know your Mumsnet password before you do that.
Hope that helps!
