npf polls (all thms) + sodium + boron + future updates

TLDR: NPF polls update for all themes to match the styling better, sodium updates, boron bug fix, and a rambly list of things I'm working on.

As usual, to update your theme, please re-visit the link sent to you when you first purchased the theme from my ko-fi. The same link should have been sent to the email you registered with too.

NPF polls update (all themes)

NPF polls have been updated across all current releases (with the exception of magnesium) so the styling matches the theme better.

Sodium [v1.01] updates

New "Main font size" option: Choose between 12px or 14px body text font size

New "Navigation section username" option: Choose to hide or show your username + Additional fix to truncate long usernames

Fix for incorrect asker link colour in answer posts

Boron [v1.09] updates

Fix for mismatched tag background and font colours

What's Next

A quick list of things I would like to work on in the coming weeks, in no particular order:

Revamps (v2.00!) of a couple of my earlier themes; namely Hydrogen and Helium. These are the most in need of updating and refining... My latest magnesium theme actually started out as a revamp of Hydrogen, but it digressed far enough in style that it became its own thing.

An "Interphase" remake. Yep. I'm still proud of some of my older yukoki designs and am considering revamping some of them... I've actually gotten started on this remake but halfway through I got second thoughts about the direction it was going. Here's a sneak peek of what I've got so far:

New layout for xuethms, which also means a public release of my current theme!

Another big gaming database-related Notion template. This one's been in the works for many months, but I haven't had the energy to polish it up for final release. My motivation to work on this fluctuates with my interest in the game -- and (hint) now it's summer, which is a great time to get back into the thick of things and make big bells off of beetles...

A couple of pages. I wanted to try my hand at some uncommon page types, such as media review pages. I'm open to funky suggestions too, shoot away in the comments or in my inbox!

What's Next... but irl

If you've made it to the far end of this post, thank you for your time! 💕 For sticking it to the end, I'll treat you to a non-coding related life update: I'll be starting grad school in September, studying bugs (the non-programming kind) ! I expect things will get pretty busy in the next couple of months as I move my entire life overseas and settle into my new position. I'm nervous about the big changes, but excited all the same too. :) Fingers crossed everything goes well, and I won't end up abandoning my coding hobby in the chaos... T_T

Hello, I love your neon desktop theme, and im trying to set it up. I have two questions:

1) how do I make links within the featured tags section? When I try to put in the a href link it would show the full thing

2) how do I edit the text for the decorative background text? I can do the color but not the actual text

Hi, and thanks for installing Neon! To answer both your queries, first locate the below section of code in your theme HTML. You can use ctrl+F to search for "Lorem ipsum". The portions of code to pay attention to are labelled as 1 and 2 to address your questions respectively.

Section 1 codes for the featured tags. The first line of code is an example of the modifications you will have to make for each link you would like to include.

Red = Delete { block:ifFeaturedTag1} and { /block:ifFeaturedTag1}

Orange = Replace /tagged/... with the link URL

Yellow = Replace # {text:...} with the link name

Section 2 codes for the background decorative text. You can replace the Lorem ipsum dolor ... Cras blandit. text with your own text. Alternatively, in the newest version of the theme (v1.01), the text has been included as a text option so it can now be customised.
