Description

The Dark Reader Pro addon enables configurable dark mode on the front end and the WordPress admin panel for sites using BdThemes, with a toggle button that can be positioned via shortcode, automatic scheduling based on a fixed time or the visitor’s operating system preference, and independent controls for brightness, contrast, and blue-light reduction. Each visitor’s preferences are saved locally in the browser without collecting personal data.

Key Features of Dark Reader Pro

  • Dark mode in the admin panel
    Applies a dark theme to the WordPress admin interface, reducing light emission during editing and publishing sessions.
  • Automatic activation scheduling
    Sets fixed times or syncs dark mode with the visitor’s operating system preference.
  • Brightness, contrast, and blue-light controls
    Allows independent adjustment of three visual parameters via the plugin’s settings panel.
  • Selective exclusion of pages and elements
    Prevents the dark filter from being applied to specific HTML pages or sections defined by the administrator.
  • Local preference storage
    Stores the visitor’s choice in the browser’s localStorage, without trackable cookies or data sent to external servers.

Benefits of Dark Reader Pro
