Theme is not saving, can anyone else reproduce that?

Posted by Neverland

iOS: I was on Black theme, went to settings and set White. The settings page changed theme, but when I clicked the Tildes logo to go to the home page, it went back to black, and in settings it still says black.

Seems not to be a saving to the DB. Can anyone else reproduce this?

      Do you have cookies blocked? The theme is saved in your cookies, not the site's database.

        502 Bad Gateway

          Something strange is definitely happening, I'm seeing the Bad Gateway error occasionally too. Try again now, I disabled something temporarily.

              I'm not sure, that's weird. Maybe try logging out (or using an incognito/private window) and see if you can get the theme to change consistently (staying changed between page loads) using the theme-switcher that's in the footer for logged-out users.

                Ok, so everything works well on desktop and iOS chrome incognito. Maybe there is some cookie state that is particular to my iOS device, on both chrome and safari that is weirding out the code?...

                Well, at least I came across that 502.
