Ghostty "Can't Find Theme Popping and Locking"

Help
1

When I moved to 25.11, I was unable to use my favorite theme for ghostty (Popping and Locking).

theme “Popping and Locking” not found, tried path “/home/justin/.config/ghostty/themes/Popping and Locking”theme “Popping and Locking” not found, tried path “/nix/store/k3wrd5n1a709fkhrv52mwnxqyabl55jw-ghostty-1.2.3/share/ghostty/themes/Popping and Locking”```

How it is declared in my flake

{pkgs, …}: 
{programs.ghostty = {
enable = true;
settings = {
theme = “Popping and Locking”;
shell-integration-features = “sudo”;
};
enableFishIntegration = true;
enableBashIntegration = true;}
;}

Sorry-I hit enter and wasn’t finished typing my post! Anyone else having something similar? I tried other themes with multiple words in their name and they work fine. So it seems to be specifically “Popping and Locking”.

And what steps did you take to set the theme prior?

Sorry-I was typing and hit enter on accident before I had everything!

Try
theme = “Popping And Locking”;
with a capital “A” at the “And”
Reasoning:
When I do ghostty +list-themesand search for said theme, then hit enter I get the needed configuration.

I hope this helps. I had something similar with Rose-Pine, where the naming changed and had errors as a result.

Well, that must be a new thing because I don’t remember hitting enter and getting that before. But you were spot on. Thank you!
