UI Settings

UI settings control presentation:

  • Theme.
  • Refresh interval.
  • Service link mode.
  • Direct service URLs.
  • Portless URL scheme.
  • Portless host suffix.
  • Advanced setting visibility.

Themes

Choose light, dark, or system. Stackarr applies the preference across the dashboard, stack cards, settings forms, and service links so screenshots and docs should always use the matching theme asset.

Drag the handle to compare the dashboard homepage in light and dark mode.

Set service links to portless to use local names such as https://app.stack and https://plex.stack. Dashboard links use direct aliases by default, while Stackarr routes such as https://app.stack/immich continue to redirect to the matching direct service URL.

Portless requires a helper installed directly on the Docker host because clean .stack names need host access for port 443, certificate trust, and /etc/hosts. The Stackarr container cannot approve those operating-system changes. Container-only installations can keep the default localhost links or use an existing reverse proxy instead.

These settings live in the configured Stackarr runtime settings store. In Postgres mode, Postgres is the source of truth.
