    Good catch on the missing this.config.night_background, thanks.

    I’m aware that it’s >= and &#60= The markup really hates the less than or equal sign together (because HTML apparently), so I just flipped them for the purposes of markup. Just found that I can use the escape instead: &#60=.

    Anyway, thanks to both of you @j.e.f.f and @strawberry-3-141 for the help. I’ve updated the code above to prevent repasting. I’ll get it into the mirror soon to test. If it works then I’ll package it and submit as a module.

          Not exactly what I am looking for. I tried to take @I_Am_Anthony code and tweak it to my needs but, no success. maybe you’ll review my code? :)

            You can actually schedule all CSS entries in the module, including the background.

                Cool! how would one do that? Still a noob.

                • Install the module

                • Enter the time from when to when night is in the config.

                • Enter your background in the custom.css

                .morning {
                  background: blue;
                }
                
                .evening {
                  background: black;
                }
