Hi,

I'm currently using the new IPS 5.x version and I can't find where to adjust the settings so that either the site logo or the site name displays correctly depending on the theme mode.

The issue is this:

In dark mode, the site name (text) is shown — which works fine.

But when switching to light mode, the logo image is displayed instead.

I would like to either:

Show the same logo in both modes, or

Choose manually what appears in each mode (text or image).

Where can I configure this? Is this handled through the theme settings or somewhere else in the admin panel?

Thanks in advance for any help!

On the front-end, click on your user menu and then choose Theme Manager.

There is a logo section there and you can choose logos based on dark mode and light mode separately.

Thanks, opentype. I’ve already found the “Open Theme Editor” button and checked the settings.

The issue is that, even with the same configuration, the display differs depending on the color mode.

In dark mode, the site name (text) is shown consistently across all screen sizes.

However, in light mode, an image logo appears instead — but only on “Medium (Tablet)” and “Large (Desktop)” screen sizes. I can’t find where this image is set or how to change this behavior.

While inspecting the logo element in the browser’s developer tools, I see this path:

#ipsLayout > div > header > div.ipsHeader__primary > div > div.ipsHeader__start > div > a > picture > img

Is there a way to either:

Force the same logo (or text) to be used in both dark and light mode across all screen sizes, or

Manually assign what displays per mode and per screen size?

Any insights would be appreciated — I’m not sure if this is a bug, theme-specific behavior, or something I’m overlooking.

Thanks again!

There is no setting. It’s just the result of which logos you upload. If you want a consistent logo for example, you would upload it four(!) times. Desktop/light, Desktop/dark, Mobile/light, Mobile/dark.

Thanks again.

Here’s what I’m seeing now:

When I go to Customization > Themes > [My Theme] > Theme Resources, the list is completely empty (see screenshot). However, the logo still shows up on the frontend under specific conditions — for example, in light mode on desktop or tablet.

So it seems that I uploaded the logo image at some point, but now I can’t locate it in the Theme Resources panel to remove or replace it.

Is this a bug or expected behavior in IPS 5.x?

Where exactly are these uploaded logos stored and managed now?

I'd like to avoid removing the image directly from the server — I’m looking for the proper admin panel way to manage these assets.

Any guidance would be appreciated!

You’re at the wrong place. It’s in the front-end theme editor:

I see it! I had just been clicking on "Text Logo" to leave it as text. Thanks, opentype.
