A premium orbital interface for XenForo 2.3.

Aethera transforms XenForo into a dark, atmospheric community experience built around deep-space architecture, orbital glass surfaces, electric cyan illumination and restrained violet energy accents.

This is not a simple colour variation or a lightly modified default style.

Aethera has its own visual identity across the forum index, navigation, categories, nodes, thread lists, posts, sidebars, menus, overlays, forms, editor and responsive interface.

Designed for XenForo 2.3​

Aethera is built specifically for the XenForo 2.3.x platform while retaining XenForo's familiar structure and behaviour underneath.

Members still get the XenForo experience they know — wrapped in an entirely different visual environment.

Built for Desktop & Mobile​

Aethera has been designed for responsive use rather than simply shrinking the desktop interface.

The mobile experience includes dedicated responsive behaviour for:

• Navigation and account controls
• Forum categories and nodes
• Forum and thread views
• Thread lists
• Posts and author information
• Page headers and hero artwork
• Sidebars
• Forms and editor controls
• Menus and overlays
• Narrow phone layouts
• Touch interaction
• Reduced-motion preferences

The result is an interface designed to remain comfortable and usable from large desktop displays down to small mobile screens.

A Distinctive Forum Experience​

Aethera includes:

• Custom orbital-glass visual language
• Dark navy and near-black interface
• Electric cyan primary accents
• Violet and restrained magenta highlights
• Custom Aethera branding
• Exclusive orbital hero artwork
• Redesigned forum category presentation
• Custom forum node styling
• Enhanced unread states
• Premium thread-list presentation
• Restyled posts and member areas
• Custom buttons and form controls
• Styled sidebars and widgets
• Dark menus and overlays
• Custom pagination and notices
• Responsive XenForo editor styling
• Mobile-specific UX refinements
• Touch-friendly interaction
• Reduced-motion support

Aethera's Identity​

The visual direction is inspired by an immense orbital civilisation suspended in deep space.

Dark engineered surfaces are contrasted by precise cyan energy lines, blue-violet illumination and small magenta highlights, giving Aethera a technological identity without overwhelming the content itself.

The forum remains the focus.

The atmosphere surrounds it.
