Understanding the Theme Installation

Think of installing the Catppuccin theme as setting up a new cozy café in your neighborhood. By choosing the recommended extension method, you’re essentially inviting the café to establish itself seamlessly. If you decide to go for the Extension Index, it’s like getting a different branch of the same café, while the direct add method is akin to building the café from scratch in your own backyard. Whichever method you choose, you’re enhancing the flavor of your experience in the web UI!

Troubleshooting Common Issues

• My theme isn’t being applied: If your theme isn’t showing up, try adding ?__theme=dark at the end of the URL.
• How to change the accent color without using the extension: Open user.css and set the variable --accent: var(--preferred-color);
• Why doesn’t the theme look like the previews? The main UI of Stable Diffusion Web UI can change frequently, causing the previews and actual appearances to differ.
