 * Hello,
 * is there a documentation or a plugin to offer a darkmode for our visitors?
 * So not for the admins but for the normal blog and shop sites.
    I saw there is
   a plugin for a darkmode for the admin dashboard. [https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/dark-mode/](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/dark-mode/)
 * Thank you

 * Since each theme is different (uses different HTML and classes), it would be 
   difficult for a plugin to do this on the front end of your site. It would be 
   better in the theme or a child theme. Some themes have a Dark Mode option already,
   and you could make it happen from a front end button in a child theme.
    There
   are theme switcher plugins. You could hook that up to a button on the front end.
 * My theme has built-in options to show a different look on each page.

   You could make a child theme that tied that to a front end button. (Maybe I will
   put that in a future release.)
