Hi @HumanG33k,

This issue may not be able to solve temporarily.
Currently, identifying CSS that came from PluginManager is hard. A possible way is to ask PluginManager to add an identification (attribute or class) on html body at first.

@greyaz Hello, how is it hard? You can target through <table id="DirectoryInfo" class="directory-info">

PluginManager not only overrides the CSS of the plugin management page, but also has a global impact on other styles.

For example, PluginManager directly modifies the color value of "--link-color-primary", which is a global variable. As ThemeRevision does not know who modified this value through CSS, I cannot determine whether to override it.

Some other styles can be temporarily located, but the added class or ID is relatively generic. It may not belong to the PluginManager and is prone to being overwritten by mistake. For example, "PluginSideBar" and "plugin-to-counts".

PluginManager is an excellent plugin that I have been wanting to make compatible for a long time. If some more unique IDs or classes can be provided, it would be easier to make it compatible.

• I fixed this few months ago, will look at the code again

• Firefox shows which class is being used by which css file inInspector Tools

• ok so any of the CSS Id's in any of my plugins, are all mine written like PluginSideBar. Kanboard itself uses CSS ID as this-is-id which is the same as css classes. I dont.

• "for a long time" Why did you not reach out? I will look into the css file again tonight and my code, but I still think you can target through <table id="DirectoryInfo" class="directory-info">. The classes and ID's you want are already part of all my plugins.... however I will review my code tonight. The --link-color-primary was the only core variable I once used, that can easily be fixed.

Reviewing my code, the css code is already present, which you can easily override:

@aljawaid

Thank you for your updates. I will try to make it compatible in next release. 🤝

[HumanG33k]

I really glad to see how you both work together. I will take time after next release to test all that stuff.

Hi everyone. Today I ran this plugin on Windows and got errors like in the picture
.
To solve this problem, in the file \plugins\ThemeRevision\Helper\ModeSwitchHelper.php, fix this private function:

private function getPluginPath(){
	$arr = explode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, __DIR__);
	$arr = array_slice($arr, 0, -1);
	return implode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR , $arr);
}
