Threads remains white about slack-black-theme HOT 15 OPEN

@abstractamcr and @raymonschouwenaar try using the css from my fork. You can use the following url while we wait for the changes (#90 ) to be merged.

After the merge, I plan to rebase my fork on @Nockiro 's because that seems to be the most comprehensive and well maintained relative to Slack version changes:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nockiro/slack-black-theme/master/custom.css

from slack-black-theme.

For those that might still be unsure of how to resolve this issue:

Open your Slack application package contents and go into:

Contents/Resources/app.asar.unpacked/src/static/ssb-interop.js

Then, go to the line that declares the cssPath variable and change it from:

const cssPath = 'https://cdn.rawgit.com/widget-/slack-black-theme/master/custom.css';

to:

const cssPath = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nockiro/slack-black-theme/master/custom.css';

Restart the app and it should be looking better!

Works for me... the "All Threads" is now black. But there is an issue with the left menu.
I get the "All Threads" which falls behind the "Jump to" search box... as you can hopefully see from this small screenshot: https://pasteboard.co/I8rSBEu.png

For your security don't use the link directly it may create xss. Copy paste that css. Btw is it completely working on https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nockiro/slack-black-theme/master/custom.css ?

Forgive a silly question, but Where does this go? Do I copy the content into the two files as per the normal instructions? Or does custom.css just go in that folder?

@Snowflake6 it goes in the below part of the Javascript you add to the bottom of the files:
// Fetch our CSS in parallel ahead of time
const cssPath = 'https://cdn.rawgit.com/widget-/slack-black-theme/master/custom.css';

from slack-black-theme.

Just gave it all a whirl and the message body where the conversation happens is still white on version 3.3.8. Everything else turned black as it should have. I also pulled down the latest CSS local and tried that but got some results.

For me the same!

@derkling that issue exists in the head of branch:master and is not addressed by #90 ... I purposefully constrained the scope of that pull request to maximize the probability of a quick merge to fix op's issue. The "Jump to" overlap (among other issues) is fixed in the second css of my above comment. Unfortunately pull request #60 has been waiting since 2018-07-21 and that fork has diverged more since then (credit to @Nockiro for keeping up with Slack developments).

Doh! Of course. [edit] Yep, that's fixed it. Had to re-start Slack to get everything to re-load properly, but now i've got dark backgrounds in both main window and in the reply threads. And as a bonus, the input field for posting and replying now has better contrast so I can see what i'm typing... Thanks!

Worked perfectly for me! Thank goodness, my eyes are saved. Thank you!

from slack-black-theme.

I signed up just to say thanks! My eyes thank you. Had this same problem and switching to the new CSS link worked!

from slack-black-theme.

New CSS link works just fine ;) Thanks !

This worked for me, css wise, FINALLY no more white background! However, I am now getting this weird button overlay in the top left, which feels a bit janky. I can't seem to get rid of the "jump to" quick search. Anyone else?

^ worked best for me. The Previous css replacement in the comments above worked, but not on the text in a "Thread" ( in this case, standup_alice bot)
