Darkify adds WordPress Dark Mode and Night Mode to both the website frontend and the WordPress admin dashboard. Visitors can switch between light and dark themes using a toggle, while site owners control how dark mode behaves across the frontend, admin panel, and editors.
Darkify supports frontend dark mode, admin dashboard dark mode, and editor-specific dark mode for Gutenberg (Block Editor) and the Classic Editor. It includes OS-aware detection, default dark mode, time-based scheduling, keyboard shortcuts, and multiple toggle placement options. Designed for performance and compatibility, Darkify works seamlessly with popular WordPress themes, page builders, and WooCommerce — without modifying theme files or requiring custom code.
Site owners can customize dark mode colors, switches, media handling, and element visibility. Darkify also provides controls for images, videos, scrollbars, mobile behavior, and page or element-level targeting to ensure dark mode integrates cleanly with different themes, builders, and layouts.
How Darkify Works
Darkify applies dark mode styling using configurable rules rather than modifying theme files. You can enable dark mode globally or limit it to specific areas, pages, posts, or elements. Settings can be adjusted from a centralized admin panel and reused across different sites using import and export tools.
Darkify is designed to work with popular WordPress themes, page builders, and multisite installations, allowing dark mode to be configured without requiring custom code.
Why Choose Darkify?
✔ Dark mode for frontend and admin dashboard
✔ Works with Gutenberg, Elementor, and popular builders
✔ OS-aware, scheduled, and manual switching
✔ Lightweight and performance-focused
✔ No theme modification required

Frontend Dark Mode: Enable dark mode on the public-facing website and allow visitors to switch between light and dark themes using a toggle.
-
Admin Dashboard Dark Mode: Apply dark mode to the WordPress admin area to provide a darker interface while managing site content and settings.

External services
Darkify uses the Appsero SDK to collect some telemetry data upon the user’s confirmation. This helps us troubleshoot problems faster and make product improvements.
Appsero SDK does not gather any data by default. The SDK only starts gathering basic telemetry data when a user allows it via the admin notice. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users.
Integrating the Appsero SDK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data, without confirmation from users in any case.
If you decline the notice, the SDK sends one anonymous request recording that telemetry was declined — it contains a random site identifier only, and no data about you, your site or your visitors. Nothing further is sent, and the weekly telemetry schedule is never started.
Learn more about how Appsero collects and uses this data.
Development
Darkify’s settings screen is a React application. The compiled bundle that ships in src/Admin/assets/js/ is built from the readable source included in this plugin under darkify-react/.
To rebuild it from that source:
cd darkify-reactnpm installnpm run build
The build writes darkify-admin.js and darkify-admin.css back into src/Admin/assets/js/. Everything else in the plugin — PHP, the frontend engine in src/assets/js/client_main.js, and its stylesheets — ships as readable source and requires no build step. Translation files are regenerated with npm run i18n from the plugin root.
