[mahdi1234]

Describe the feature you'd like
Add .env setting for default to be dark mode.

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
Customization of bookstack appearance without using themes. Also since mode toggle is on home page anyone going to direct link can be forced to dark mode.

Additional context
Hope I haven't missed it, but I couldn't find it here https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/blob/master/.env.example.complete

Hi @mahdi1234,
Could you describe what is meant by this?

The dark-mode in BookStack is a user-level preference. It should not affect other users in the system.

Hi @ssddanbrown maybe I described that bit confusing, basically I would like to have a setting for default theme light/dark, so when I give someone direct link to page_xyz it's dark on first visit. Sure he can change later on to white, but it's about first visit, does it make sense? I'm the only user on system and have read-only system for guests.

@mahdi1234 Ah, Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for confirming, I'll update the title.

Nope, nothing yet

Is there still no way to change the default theme to dark?
