How many different themes should you have for your forum/site?

[Grant]

If you run a site or forum, how many different theme options do you think is acceptable? I personally think most sites only need a few select themes, basic ones that aren't too frilly or crazy. Essentially a dark mode theme, the basic light theme, a theme for those with issues seeing, and maybe a theme based on a certain color scheme. Or what would be even cooler is if forums allowed users to modify the look to any color/style they want. That'd be pretty cool I think.

I have installed multiple themes on my forums, however, all of these themes were installed during the time of the launch. However, after settling on a theme, I never changed the theme. On my blogs also, after settling with a theme, I am staying with it.

I think if you are going to have more than one, just sticking with a light theme and a dark theme is ideal. You don't want to give people too many options as you would have to also ensure everything works on each theme any time you make changes.

I think keeping it simple with light and dark themes is a great approach. Having these two options caters to a wide range of user preferences. Some people prefer a bright interface, while others find a darker theme easier on the eyes. By offering both, you make your forum or site accessible and enjoyable for a broader audience.
