Expected behavior Adding data attribute data-mdb-theme="dark" to an element should make all children use dark theme. I.E. divs would have dark backgrounds and light foregrounds etc.

Actual behavior Seems this data attribute only triggers on certain elements i.e. a div.card or button.

It depends. Changing theme do not force changing background color if it has background color set to specific color. To see it take effect it need to be styled with class that changes with theme. You can see how this plays out when you go to our color docs and change site theme. You will see which colors are suppose to change.
