Hey @jaeheonji - this works for me:

// ~/.config/zellij/themes/dracula.kdl
themes {
    dracula {
        fg 248 248 242
        bg 40 42 54
        black 0 0 0
        red 255 85 85
        green 80 250 123
        yellow 241 250 140
        blue 98 114 164
        magenta 255 121 198
        cyan 139 233 253
        white 255 255 255
        orange 255 184 108
    }
}

$ zellij options --theme dracula

Could you tell me more about your setup? Maybe we can find out what exactly isn't working?

    catppuccin-mocha {

        black 24 24 37
        red 243 139 168

        magenta 245 194 231

        white 205 214 244
        orange 250 179 135
    }
}

and

$ zellij options --theme catppuccin-mocha

I tried this and it doesn't work.

I think it doesn't work if there are multiple themes in one file.

Can confirm that after 0.32, it only works if:

• There's only one theme in the file.
• The file is named after the theme.

Hey - apologies for this bug. I didn't know more than one theme in a custom theme file was possible :(
I think @jaeheonji said he is fixing it - right?

[jaeheonji]

@imsnif Yes, I will fix it ASAP :)
