WebUI suddenly changed look ?????

Post by JLC »

As far as I know I've not done anything to my Debian install of Deluge. But all of a sudden the WebUI look has changed - loads of lines and a different styling.

Is this something to do with a new version, or have I managed to change something without realising ?

Is it possible to restore "Classic" deluge ?

May you be more specific about the change you see? (screenshot)
Do you know your previous/actual version (see the wiki for how to)

Rows are now enclosed in black lined boxes, and the "preferences" panel is transparent, for a start.

No idea what version I have, and the wiki doesn't jump out at me.

Actual daemon is working fine.

Have you tried with a different browser (and no plugin enabled) or better from another device like your phone?

Looks better in Firefox, but it's still the *different* UI. Some popups are transparent (but not as bad as Chrome).

Here's 2 screenshots from Chrome. It NEVER used to look like this.

Sounds you're the only one experimenting the issue so you have to dig a bit. My 1st move would be to stop all Deluge process, rename the .config folder and start with a fresh profile. If it works you can reuse these newly created config files. If not the deluge-web part may have to be reinstalled
Check all the component version too to assume nothing was updated in the OS repo.

Success !!

Following @shamael s advice, I went to have a fiddle. Obviously first thing to do is apply any updates to the system. So I did (62 !!!) which needed a reboot. (Can you see where this is going ?).

Rebooted, and WebUI is back to normal.

There's something a little more subtle here, as I've had a couple of updates/reboots before which didn't fix the issue. But I'm glad it did.
