Bootstrap Darkmode Switch

I have tried this before without success but i googled "Bootstrap Darkmode Switch" and found this repo at the top of the list. So i thought i would give it a try on here and see how it looks. Demo page is here, lets see if it works.

The good thing about a toggle is that i can test it on every page and see what needs to be changed. I think there may be too many elements to actually change it on this site so this test might fail, but we will see. 

Download the latest release of dark mode toggle.

I have a copy here if you want to view the demo and source. 

I added the code to this page, but when toggling the dark mode switch it does not seem to apply the data attribute to the html header. I can manually add it so that proves that the css is working ok, something seems to be blocking the attribute from being added correctly. 

I think rather than digging into this one i will just mark this as a non working one for me. Here is the test of manually adding the data attribute, so that works just the script does not want to add it for me. 

HTML

<div class="custom-control custom-switch">
  <input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="darkSwitch" />
  <label class="custom-control-label" for="darkSwitch">Dark Mode</label>
</div>

CSS

[data-theme="dark"] {
  background-color: #111!important;
  color: #eee;
}
[data-theme="dark"] .bg-light {
    background-color: #111!important;
}

Scripts

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/html/dark-mode-switch/dark-mode.css" />
<script src="/html/dark-mode-switch/dark-mode-switch.js"></script>

"Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything. 'Are you feeling all right?' I asked her. 'I feel all sleepy,' she said. In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead. The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was...in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunised against measles. ...I dedicated two of my books to Olivia, the first was ‘James and the Giant Peach’. That was when she was still alive. The second was ‘The BFG’, dedicated to her memory after she had died from measles. You will see her name at the beginning of each of these books. And I know how happy she would be if only she could know that her death had helped to save a good deal of illness and death among other children."

I just checked google books for BFG, and the dedication is there.
