- Rated 5 out of 5by theiskelzor, 3 years agoBest QOL add-on for wikipedia hands down. Must for any avid user imo. Only thing is, tables stay white and formulas stay black in all dark themes. Making one brighter than the sun, other unreadable. Otherwise has great and pleasing themes.
Thanks and keep up the great work devs. - Rated 5 out of 5by Paiopaio, 3 years agoVery enjoyable and pleasing to the eyes extension! I have a gripe though. When any dark theme is selected the mathematical formulas are written in black and, as such, they are borderline unreadable.
I thank the developers for their work and hope for an update :) Developer response
posted 3 years agoThe latest update includes fixes for the Chinese version, so it should be working now :)- Rated 4 out of 5by PARANOIA, 3 years agoUnsure if this is a bug with using this on an ultrawide monitor but the size difference between the 3rd and 2nd largest column widths is too drastic - would prefer at least another 2 sizes in between. A "warm" dark mode would be nice as well.

posted 3 years agoThanks for the suggestion, more widths have been added to the slider in the latest update to give better support for large screens. More themes coming soon :) - Rated 5 out of 5by MadProbe, 3 years agoGood extension and i like it. I suggest to add a slight left margin for page's text when "Contents" menu is shown and text width is set to 85?% and 100%.

posted 3 years agoThanks for the suggestion, this has been fixed in the latest update. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17181041, 3 years agoGreat extension, however for Persian (a right to left language) somehow this extension fails to fully work and shows dark theme as light instead.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17176708, 3 years agoWith large margins that makes poor use of screen real estate, this "modern" redesign does indeed live up to its name.
Developer response
posted 3 years agoIf you set the content width slider in the settings to max, it will be 100% width (no margins). I will make this more obvious in the next update :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Bred, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13552310, 3 years agoI used to use plugins that customized styles on pages to alter the look of wikipedia. This plugin does so much better of a job. Love it. Reading some reviews it seems people do not realize that margins are adjustable? Oh and it adds the night mode which is why I wanted to modify wikipedia styles in the first place.

posted 3 years agoGlad you like it :) Yes the content width is adjustable from the settings. I'll try to make that more obvious! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 11386136, 3 years agoSuggestion: Make left sidebar actually collapsible so that content can take more space when zooming on smaller screen. I'll keep using the Mobile Wikipedia extension since it allows for a better use of screen estate. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mobile-wikipedia-webextension/

posted 3 years agoThanks for the suggestion, the left sidebar has now been updated to work like that in the latest update :) - Rated 4 out of 5by uncoolcentral, 3 years agoI appreciate that some will find this an preferable to default Wikipedia, but I found nothing to like about it. It's well implemented, but it wasn't for me. Not even close.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13599574, 3 years agoLooks great! Very clean, professional look and comfortable to read, appreciate the lower-contrast dark mode option.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14315579, 3 years agoSuggestion: Since everything is bigger (fontsize, left panel, etc) the content should be full page. No need for this right margin now.
Developer response
posted 3 years agoThanks for the suggestion. If you set the content width slider in the settings to max, it does use 100% width (no margins). But there will be more control over this in the next update :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Ayush, 3 years agoPerfect!
Suggestion: Enable making category pages wider. Example page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Living_people
