The colours issue looks like it’s caused by the light / dark BETA. There are lots of colour tweaks being resolved in the next update.
Unfortunately I can’t see the “flightdeck” under the new phpBB3.3.3. Whats the trick to use the Milk_v2 Style anyway?
Hi there,
Have you uploaded the extension files as outlined in the help file / documentation?
Following these instructions will help you set up Milk correctly 
I found the failure: its not /ext/flightdeck/ – it should be the /ext/planetstyles/flightdeck and everything will work proberly
Update: also found a 3.3.3 bug: the upload BG image will dont be displayed.
The file is there ext/planetstyles/flightdeck/store/bg.jpg but has no effect.
The BG image was displayed correctly in the previous version 3.3.2
How to fix that?
Hi again,
I think this happens in a very specific set of circumstances in the most recent version:
- Parallex hader must be enabled - Light / dark toggle (BETA) must be enabled - The dark skin is selected
Is this true for your configuration? If so, it can be remedied by temporarily disabling the light / dark toggle. The feature is still in beta, so weird things like this can happen.
Bug still active. I tried every combination. P. Header is enabled, light/dark toggle enabled and testwise disabled, no effect. Only the ugly 0 1 0 1 Header BG shows up if try to setup a BG.jpg
This is a serious bug, because with the 3.3.2 it works fine.
Just to be clear, this is a beta feature (and is clearly advertised as such) so edge cases like this are expected.
it will be remedied in the next update. It can also be remedied by disabling the light / dark toggle
The light/dark toggle is disabled – because its a “experimental status”. It doesn’t matter for the BG function. This must be another bug: uploading a BG image has no effect on the Header Background.
It’s indirectly related to the toggle, but is related. A fix will be published soon
Hello. I had a question, not sure if related to the theme/overall phpBB, but I wanted to increase the avatar size in the forum to 250×250 (currently 200×200). In the user profile it shows fine, but on a desktop, it doesn’t look any bigger than the 200×200 avatar. I’m not sure if it’s a responsive tweak or something with phpBB. Figured I’d ask. Thanks in advance.
Sure. As we’ve discussed though, we can’t help you with repeated requests for customisations
Thanks, but can the social icons be changed? I mean color
we have followed every step and it’s still not working!!!!!!
Reply to this support ticket!
Hello,
Thanks for reaching out, I’ve replied to the support ticket but will expand on the issue here too
That layout will be returning to the production theme either at the end of this week, or early next week. We identified some weird issues on mobile devices that couldn’t be resolved quickly, so opted for a full re-write of that layout instead.
As the next phpBB release (v 3.3.4) isn’t far away, we might wait until then before deploying the update.
It’s definitely coming back though
This problem is not in Mobile applications, this problem are in PC and Laptop See the screenshots i sent you.
will this problem be solved or should we ask for a refund? because you showcased a them and we purchased it and it turned out as it’s not working as it was showcased.
*My apologies if i sound un polite but my company is really angry with me because i insisted on purchasing this theme and it didn’t turn out as it was showcased so you get the point…
Yes, we’re happy to honour a refund if you no longer wish to use the theme.
Hi, when will the next update be?
Likely the next phpBB maintenance release
and dark mode will be stable then?
It’s stable in Chrome now
Edit overall_header.html and add this section:
<!- IF FORUM_FAVICON ->
<link rel=”icon” href=”{FORUM_FAVICON}” />
<!- ENDIF ->
<script> if (localStorage.user_colour_selection === “dark”) { document.getElementsByTagName(‘html’)[0].classList.add(‘fd_dark’); } </script>
<!— phpBB style name: Milk v2 Based on style: Merlin Framework (http://www.planetstyles.net) —>
Hello.. I too am experiencing the flicker of white background loading for a second before the dark theme loads. Is there a refresh timing setting I can change on my end or is it just the way it is? – - I’m likely going to go back to using the light theme as its a distraction when the page loads. Thanks!
It’s as though the light theme loads first then the dark theme loads after it. Anyway let me know if there is anything I can do on my end to fix this up. Wasn’t sure if i needed to dive into the css and delete the light theme altogether although at this point I have no idea how. Thanks again
Yes, this is why the feature was released as beta
There is a provisional fix here: https://themeforest.net/comments/26164331 , which sounds like it resolves the problem until our next update
Yes I read that and see in my file manager I have the following docs available to modify: overall_header.html & overall_header_simplified.html. You happen to know where in those documents the following snippet would need to be pasted?
<script> if (localStorage.user_colour_selection === “dark”) { document.getElementsByTagName(‘html’)[0].classList.add(‘fd_dark’); } </script>
I tried pasting in both docs just below the header and they don’t seem to resolve the problem. No rush but I’d love to get this working properly in the dark theme as it fits the motif of our branding. Thanks again!
Hello, just to share how I solved rendering style before getting light/dark settings mentioned before as annoying flickering. I added in overall header getting the classList dark before all other things to be loaded <script> if (localStorage.user_colour_selection === “dark”) { document.getElementsByTagName(‘html’)[0].classList.add(‘fd_dark’); } </script>
I don’t know if this is the best way to solve the bug but visually works like a charm.
Thank you, moving this script to run first was the next phase of the beta. We’ll consider this ahead of future update.
Thanks
Hello. I upgraded my Milk style and activated the toggle for the light/dark mode… but now the site doesn’t show the header in the dark mode.The header appears only in the light mode… Is it a way to fix this?
Hi there,
This was fixed in the most recent update a few days ago
One or two easier bugs to solve; when in light mode, PM CSS icons don’t appear correctly and same is with CSS icons in front of topics, icons for forums are ok. In dark mode there are not similar issues.
Thanks, will publish an update within the next 2 hours or so. You won’t receive an email notification, but keep an eye on the ‘updated’ date to see when it’s available
Update is now published, note that it’s not intended to resolve the light / dark beta feedback you raised. Just the icons and a few text colours.
Thank you for support will test it asap. Cheers!
update:replacing content.css and icon forum topics.css fixed icons.
I forgot to install the extension and now when trying to access my account I get Error ´The submitted form was not valid. Please try sending it again. ‘
HELP MY PLEASE
Hello there,
That is a general phpBB error, normally it means that your phpBB version and style version don’t match.
Are you using the most recent version of both phpBB and Milk?
Thanks
High Contrast Footer Links?:
Change only the bottom buttons and not the top ones
what’s up is wrong sorry if I put a background in the back and I have the social bar down, the image doesn’t go and over it it locks up
Updated my board to 3.3.3 and I currently use appropriate Milk for it. These are issues I have experienced so far: Paralax doesn’t work when dark view is switched on(dark background), when dark is set and you reload the page firstly you will see light elements and after page is fully reloaded it will switch to dark this way you see annoying flickering. Dark/Light switch is very good add-on but I think latest version is more like beta and needs improvements. Thanks
Hello,
Yes, the light/dark switch is advertised as a beta option in flightdeck, and so some unexpected behaviour is expected.
The parallax issue is known. I will send you an updated dark.css and overall_footer.html file which resolves this issue.
great thank you!
css and overall_footer solved Paralax problem, looking forward for dark/light flickering solution while loading the board, I guess the problem is because you load both dark/light templates and default one is showing for a second before switch settings taking in consideration.
Out of curiosity, what browser are you experiencing the flicker problem on?
All common browsers have same behavior
Thanks
Could I make the forum smaller than written?
Yes, edit the font size values in fonts.css
Thanks , can I change the width only from the top bar down?
Hi,
It looks like this is the 20th comment or email you’ve sent us regarding customisation.
Are you trying to re-mould Milk into something that it’s not designed to be?
Yes:)) and, /styles/Milk_v2/theme/merlin.css
.body-layout-Fluid #inner-wrap { width: 95%;—change margin: 0 auto; }
Customisations like this are beyond the scope of the product.
Milk is a stock theme, designed to be sold as-is. I can’t continue to provide one-off modification requests like this.
Hello. After the last update I lost the header background in the dark mode. When I click on the light mode , the background is there! In the admin panel I have set theme color dark if it helps. Please check. In dark mode, header background disappears and remain black! I hope I don’t miss something
Hi,
Sounds weird. Can you send me a link to your forum through the support tab above?
Thanks!
Unfortunatelly I am testing it on my local pc with laragon 
I am going to do a fresh new install of phpbb in my server and check there. I ‘ll inform you
It seems that the paralax effect does this strange behaviour. I am sending you the details through the support tab
Thanks, we’ll continue to communicate through email
I want to become a member but the buttons do not work. Do you have a demo account? I want to log in and view the member panel.
The demo account was disabled due to spam, but the UCP looks the same as it does in Prosilver. Just with colours that match the rest of Milk
Hello, is it possible to update your directory for 3.3.0 to includes files with dark/light mode switch. I am still on that version and it is without this new feature in Milk v2 style.
3.3.3 styles will work on 3.3.0
Please check: Content Block Headers: Defines how category headers are displayed. Default value: ‘Block’. stripes don’t work well it shows big white blocks instead of stripes based on colour presets
I’m not sure if stripes was the best label for this option – it’s supposed to be a white header with a thin strip border at the top. Not diagonal stripes
How can I add the joined date in the post?
Hello, will the theme also have a night mode? If there is, I do not know
Yes, a dark mode has been part of Milk for a few years. But the most recent update added a new flightdeck option, which allows your members to toggle it from a link in the navbar
I don’t know why I haven’t checked the theme settings. Glad it was. Thanks
