"uninstalling" theme

Open rzolau opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

How do you removed installed themes from Element desktop on macOS?

Element doesn't have a button to delete them yet. https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/13221 is the relevant issue.

Right now the only way to remove them is by manually editing your account data.

  1. Type /devtools in the message composer. Be careful. You can screw up rooms or your account by editing things in here.
  2. Click Explore Account Data.
  3. Click im.vector.web.settings.
  4. Edit the JSON to remove either the individual theme you want to remove or the entire custom_themes block.

Ahh, /devtools that did the trick -- thank you!
