theme change not working on MacOS

[ciscohack]

I just installed fish shell version 3.1.2 and installed a couple of themes but theme switch not working. Secondly, I have noticed after removing all theme omf instead of using the default theme, automatically select prompt style "Classic" . I checked the directory there is no fish_prompt.fish file as well.

To make it work again. I have to delete file "~/.confif/fish/config.d/config.fish" and re-add. looks to be a bug to me.

I also had to remove config.fish to actually see the effect. Definitely looks like a bug, but maybe it could be that way. Only using fish since a month.

@dash2507 No, I don't think this is correct behaviour or any shell should work like this. it's a bug. I opened ticket thought we will get better detail and assistance but seems fish shell support is not very active. anyway removing config.fish and re-adding fixing my problem but I have to do it all time when the issue happens again.

Unfortunatelly, I could not reproduce this issue. I tried in my current workstation (years old installation) and also on two docker containers (arch and ubuntu — pristine environments). I could switch themes just fine.

Could you please provide further information such as parts of your config.fish and/or conf.d/* — only the non-sensitive sections — or any other information you find relevant?

Closing as a dupe of #671. Thanks, @ColtonIdle
