The easiest way to adjust the theme to a darker version is to create the file “style.local.ini” and place it into the dokuwiki/lib/tpl/dokuwiki directory. (Doesn't seem to work after update to latest wiki version. Using style addon stores it as style.ini in /web/dokuwiki/conf/tpl/dokuwiki instead).

An example file with a darker theme ini file is below. Furthermore, replacing the favicon.ico, logo.png and apple-touch-icon.png in the template image folder with alternative versions and overwriting the dokuwiki-128.png file in the media manager will change the logo and favicon. You can also just store these in the 'root' or the 'wiki' section without adjusting or replacing the template files.

Here are the images for the blue world icon:


dokuwiki-128.png
logo.png
apple-touch-icon.png
favicon.ico

/web/dokuwiki/conf/tpl/dokuwiki/style.ini

Hack for edittable with dark theme:

/web/dokuwiki/conf/userstyle.css

.handsontable td {
    color: #222;
}

Remove footer buttons and license:

/web/dokuwiki/lib/tpl/dokuwiki/tpl_footer.php

#remove everything between
<!-- ********** FOOTER ********** -->
#and
<!-- /footer -->

Remove Media Manager link for non-logged-in/view-only users:

/web/dokuwiki/lib/tpl/dokuwiki/tpl_header.php

#surround:
                        tpl_action('admin', 1, 'li');
                        tpl_action('profile', 1, 'li');
                        tpl_action('register', 1, 'li');
                        tpl_action('login', 1, 'li');

#with
if ($INFO['isadmin'] {
#and 
}

For 2020 Hogfather templates should be updated to replace the 4 tpl_action lines with:

                        echo (new \dokuwiki\Menu\UserMenu())->getListItems('action ');

and the similar action line in site-tools under the search form should contain:

                <?php 
                    if (!empty($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'])) {
                        echo (new \dokuwiki\Menu\SiteMenu())->getListItems('action ', false);
                    }
                ?>

Allow additional file types:

Log into synology via ssh or access the dokuwiki folder.

cd /volume1/web/dokuwiki/conf
sudo cp mime.conf mime.local.conf
sudo vi mime.local.conf
#delete all but the text files towards the end of the file and enable them
#add json text/json
