Default to dark mode on status page

Dark mode makes your status page easier to view in low-light environments and provides a modern, professional look. By default, your status page will show the mode that your visitor requests, based on their browser or operating system settings. But you can set dark mode as the default theme for your status page if you choose. Visitors will always have the option to switch between light and dark mode themselves manually.

How to make dark mode the default

  1. From your board, go to Status Page in the left menu.
  2. Open the Design tab.
  3. Find the Dark mode setting.
  4. Choose whether the default theme for your status page should be light or dark.
  5. Click Save to apply your changes.

End-user experience

Your visitors can always switch between light and dark mode using the toggle in the footer of your status page — even if you set one mode as the default.

This means you should make sure your branding (logo, header style, and colors) looks good in both modes.
