In the lightning experience, I like that I can now see my email text and background as different colors. But not the performance is very slow and unusable at times. I have had to turn off the Salesforce Dark Theme due to performance. Is this a know issue with 1.0.9? I also noted in paves that had charts, the test of the charts loads only if you turn off the Salesforce Dark Theme and back on.
Hello Edwards,
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
I have made a further updates with respect to performance along with an optimal view of reports and dashboard in version 1.0.10
Hope it will give you a better experience.
Thanks!
Thank you for your work! When will it be posted? I look forward to using it.
When loading tickets in Lightning it takes 1.5 sec to load with the extension turned off. When turned on, it takes 11 sec. (version 1.0.9) Did not see in last update.
Hello Edwards,
It will be availble by today.
Thanks!
Thank you for 1.0.10! The performance issue I saw is not cut in half. It takes 5 to 6 sec. to load cases. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Edwards for your feedback 🙂
Have a nice day ahead!

I have downloaded and it is on… but it doesn’t work? Anything I need to do?
Hello,
I have sent you the steps required over the email. Please let me know if you need any further assistance with using it.
Thank you for using the Salesforce Dark Theme Chrome extension 🙂
Hello,
SFDC Lightning
Under Feed -> Compose/New Email
The Email body – Text background appears Greyish, instead of white.
Is there a way to change background to black, with text in white ?
Appreciate your time.
Hello Sandeep, Thank you for sharing your feedback. As the email body appears in a separate iFrame and there was performance implication while making the background black and text white so by default it is set to grey background with black text.
Thank you.
I have downloaded and it is on… but it doesn’t work? How do I enable it?
Thank you

Hello, can you please send me a screen shot of what you are experiencing at salesforceblue@gmail.com so I can further assist. Thanks!
I’ve noticed on report components, the Y-axis text is not legible. It is black text on a dark grey background. Do you know if this will be corrected soon? It’s hard for me to utilize this extension without this being visible.
Hi Bonnie,
Thanks for sharing this. I Will be looking into it.

SalesforceBlue
I am afraid that it does impact the area of received and sent emails, the background is still in grey, not black, please advise.
I am looking into it.
How do I un-do the dark mode or remove the extension?
Hello Carol,
I have sent you an email with steps and a screen shot to on/off the dark mode as required. Please let me know for any further queries.
Thanks!
Could you please update the extension to allow for more contrast? The bottom bar where you open a new case, omni-channel, notes etc. is black on black.
Hi Christine, Thank you for sharing your feedback. Can you also please send some screen shot at salesforceblue@gmail.com if possible? This will assist to view the user experience at your end.
Love having the option of Dark Mode with this, but I’ve found when we have certain information in colored text to call it out in Knowledge articles the color is stripped when the extension is turned on. Same with table cell background colors in Knowlege articles.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We would be resolving this in later releases for a better experience. Thanks!
Love it, plan to do any keyboard shortcuts to activate and deactivate?
Hi Julian, thank you for sharing your feedback. Sure, will add this feature in upcoming releases.
Hello! We are looking to install Salesforce Dark Theme in our organization but would like details on security and privacy of the data on the web pages. Is this anything that can be provided? I did not see these standard in the footer on this page.
Hello Pamela, I have submitted the privacy declaration while publishing this Chrome extension that no data is collected or touched while using this extension. It is a UI only extension which just translates the current salesforce pages into dark mode. If you need more information on this you can drop an email on salesforceblue@gmail.com I can provide it. Thanks!
Hi Pankaj,
I love this extension, thanks so much for making it! Similar to Bonnie’s comment previously, the Reports are mostly unusable because the Y-axis text is black on very dark grey. I sent a screenshot to your Gmail.
Normally I just turn off the extension for these pages, but would it be possible to change the plugin to either allow whitelisting for /Reports URL, or somehow modify the CSS when this URL is present?
Thank you!
Jesse
Hi! LOVE your theme, but wanted to report a quick issue:
When sending emails via Account Engagement (nee Pardot), the extension automatically recodes the entire email as dark mode. Which means I have to actually turn your extension off if I want to create, edit, or send an email to my prospects and clients with Account Engagement.
I can turn it off for now of course, but figured I’d let you know this was going on! Love your work, hope you can find a fix for it 🙂
Thanks,
Thank you Lierin for sharing your feedback. We would be looking into the reported findings in the upcoming releases. Thanks!
Hey! The extension works great and looks awesome on SFDC. One minor feature update I would ask for is to sync with the System dark theme – so on windows or mac if the dark theme is automatically turned on at sunrise/sunset then the extension should automatically turn on, otherwise it should leave SFDC in light mode. Is this possible?
