This was a most welcome improvement. 👍  
Maybe not new, but I found it now.

Whoa! I haven’t even seen that! Is that a new feature of the Gin theme??

(Great example why this is justified!! [Funding Proposal: Renew 1 year sponsorship of Gin admin theme](https://farmos.discourse.group/t/funding-proposal-renew-1-year-sponsorship-of-gin-admin-theme/1270) 😄 )

Maybe we can consider exposing these settings for managed farm roles. Currently I think they are behind a permission.

Update: I’ve opened an issue with a merge request…

> **[Allow users to override Gin theme settings](https://www.drupal.org/project/farm/issues/3309198)**
>
> Problem/Motivation The Gin theme provides an option: "Users can override Gin settings". With this enabled, when a user clicks "Edit profile", they are presented with a new option at the bottom of the form within a new "Admin theme settings" group:...

Would anyone like to help test all the settings to make sure they don’t break anything?

I can help test on hosted FarmOS if it would be useful.

Thanks @pat! Let me know the URL and I’ll enable the setting on there for you to test.
