GlobalPreferences dark mode error

[edit]

Issue Description When a global preference for color is set, changing the color while on the settings page (in the toolbar, not in the settings) disables this global setting.

Similarly, toggling width (limited width mode) changes the global preference, but does not unsubscribe Wikidata from it. --Michael21107 (talk) 02:49, 25 February 2026 (UTC)reply
