User‐defined Themes

You can add your own user-defined themes by creating a new toml file in the folder:

Platform	Path
Windows	C:\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\nyaa\config\themes\
Linux	~/.config/nyaa/themes/

This toml file can be name whatever you want, since the name of the theme will be stored in the file.

The structure of the theme toml file must be like:

name = "Custom Theme Name"
bg = "Reset"
fg = "White"
border = "Rounded"
border_color = "White"
border_focused_color = "LightCyan"
hl_bg = "#0f0f0f"
solid_bg = "White"
solid_fg = "Black"
success = "Green"
error = "#ff0000"
info = "Green"
warning = "Yellow"
