Since Epic’s great web team really messed up the “light” forum theme and then got rid of it I was forced to find another option. Their dark theme isn’t for everyone and it was giving me migraines etc. I need a light theme to read but Epic let me down so here is a solution that works quite well.

Get Stylebot, it is a google chrome extension. You can change the background and text what colors you want, so far it is working great, my eyes are saved! You can change pretty much everything if you spend enough time redesigning it all.

Download extension here:

chromewebstore.google.com

Stylebot - Chrome Web Store

Change the appearance of the web instantly

I made a quick “Light Style” Stylebot style, just go in the settings of this plugin and create a new style and paste the below CSS in and you should be set. You can edit this as needed to your liking, it should be a good start. If you already have a style just edit it, delete the old code and paste this in and save.

I made a style for forums.unrealengine.com and for dev.epicgames.com - most people will only need the forum style.

Enjoy!

What it looks like

I’ll keep this updated as I update mine so there is always a better version as I find and fix things.
