Cool, isn’t it? This option has been requested by many of our clients over the time through feature requests. So, we felt really excited to develop this into the Darklup plugin.
How is It Useful?
As a matter of fact, this option will come in really handy for you if you have super bright or good amount of bright images that do not lower down in brightness when the dark mode is active.
Those images might hurt the eyes even after the dark mode is enabled. But thanks to this awesome feature that makes it possible to change the color of any and every image of your WordPress website.
You can make all of your site images look and feel the same way in the dark mode along with maintaining maximum comfort of readability.

Switch Animation for Front-end
A new option called “Switch Animation” has been included in the “Switch Styles” section of the Darklup plugin settings page.
Switch Animation
The way it works is, enabling this option makes the darklup toggle-switch to animate for a while in the front-end.
There are several animation styles you can choose from and also get a live preview in the preview window on the right side of the page.
After selecting your preferred animation style, simply click on “SAVE SETTINGS” button and the animation will be activated on the front-end.
Switch Animation Live Preview
It can be quite useful for the users because sometimes there might be a lot of elements on your site’s pages where you have placed the dark mode button/switch. And, that can make it hard for the users to detect and find out the button/toggle-switch.
So by enabling this feature you can make the button animate for a while so that the user’s eyes can detect the button quickly and start using it.
Besides, a little animation adds a good impression of your site as well. So, this new feature is waiting for you to try it out, make your dark mode button/ switch wiggle.
