Themes not being applied anymore with tmux 3.1c

[matheusfillipe]

On my .tmux.conf:

set -g @plugin 'jimeh/tmux-themepack'
set -g @themepack 'powerline/block/green'

But i get a default theme. This seems to be since 3.1c.

I have the same problem with the same version.

[matheusfillipe]

I downgraded to 3.1 and it still works. Yeah is just with 3.2 I guess.

[pablodietz]

I have the same issue with 3.1b version.

Facing the same issues with 3.2a

after some rebooting, it finally started working all of a sudden. Didn't really change things. It's been a couple of days and it's still working

I'm facing the same issue on 3.2a, and had it also on 3.0a. Reboots did not help.

On the other side, manually reloading tmux configuration with source-file ~/.tmux.conf applies the theme correctly, like mentioned in #43.

I am on 3.2a_1 and had to completely exit all tmux sessions and my terminal (alacritty) to get new themes to load today. While the issue was happening, the source-file ~/.tmux.conf did nothing to help.

[jimeh]

Apologies for my silence on this issue so far. I'm afraid I've not had any of these issues myself though, and I've been constantly using the latest tmux version on both macOS and Linux.

So I'm afraid I don't really know what might be going on :(

[matheusfillipe]

I decided to update to tmux 3.2a today and it simply worked. I just had to tmux kill-server; rm -rf /tmp/tmux-*.

Then I downgrade to 3.1c, 3.2, and they all seem to work fine. Maybe this isn't related to the tmux version or just too hard to reproduce.

[aleeraser]

@jimeh This is the behavior I'm facing. After opening tmux, you can see that the theme is not applied (or not applied at 100%?), and then after reloading .tmux.conf (via keyboard shortcut) the theme is applied successfully.

I'm using:

• Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
• GNOME shell 3.36.9
• tmux 3.2a

And I see the issue with both gnome-terminal (in the screencast above) and Terminator (v2.1.1).

I installed both tmux-powerline and tmux-themepack via tpm (Tmux Plugin Manager).

I don't know if this can help.

[aleeraser]

Ok, I just found the problem, at least on my side.

I had the following configuration for tmux-powerline in my .tmux.conf:

set-hook -g session-created 'run-shell "~/.tmux/plugins/tmux-powerline/powerline.sh init"' # prettifies the window-status segments

I don't remember from where I took that, it was probably at the beginning of my tmux powerline customization, before finding out this repository. I suggest everyone having problems here to have a look at their .tmux.conf for hooks similar to that one.

I have the same issue for tmux 3.3a with iterm2 emulator.

[guoliang]

I think I got the same issue, but the theme is applied one time, and now when I try to change to another theme it won't do anything. I removed the plugins and theme is still applied instead of going back to default.

I'm using tmux 3.3a

For me pressing prefix + I to fetch the plugin and source it did the trick (https://github.com/jimeh/tmux-themepack#install-using-tmux-plugin-manager)

$ tmux -V                                                 
tmux 3.3a
