How to stop tokyonight.nvim from loading?

How to stop the theme 'tokyonight.nvim' from loading? I installed the theme 'everforest' to match my other desktop theming, and it looks great. The problem is the 'tokyonight' theme still loads. Where do I set it to false, if possible?

I added a separate file to load the 'everforest' theme. under plugins.

under your plugins directory create a new lua file:

return {
	"folke/tokyonight.nvim",
	enabled = false,
}

It worked

Thank you

Well, now I'm getting an error. When Neovim starts. 'Could not load your colorscheme tokyonight' with a huge paragraph of data as to why I guess. It did disable the tokyonight colorscheme, but at start up, Neovim is complaining, as if it needs to be removed from another file.

You also need to specify colorscheme for LazyVim

return {
	"LazyVim/LazyVim",
	opts = {
		colorscheme = "your_theme",
	}
}

You can refer to colorscheme doc at https://www.lazyvim.org/plugins/colorscheme for further details

I put that is the same file? That's been the problem for me. None of the examples on that site state where or what file to enter these scripts.

Where does the code you just posted go?

I appreciate your time and effort to assist me, but this is all new for me.

This is my current colorscheme file: everforest.lua

local M = {
  "neanias/everforest-nvim",
  lazy = false,
  priority = 1000, -- make sure to load this before all the other start plugins
}

function M.config()
  local everforest = require("everforest")
  everforest.setup({
    background = "medium",
    transparent_background_level = 1,
    italics = true,
    disable_italic_comments = false,
    on_highlights = function(hl, _)
      hl["@symbol"] = { link = "@field" }
    end,
  })
  everforest.load()
end

return M

[moisesmorillo]

you can do it in one file or in multiples file whatever you prefer, for example in
~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins/colorscheme.lua

return {
	{
		"LazyVim/LazyVim",
		opts = {
			colorscheme = "everforest",
		},
	},
	{
		"folke/tokyonight.nvim",
		enabled = false,
	},
	{
		"neanias/everforest-nvim",
		lazy = false,
		priority = 1000,
		opts = {},
		config = function()
			require("everforest").setup({
				background = "medium",
				transparent_background_level = 1,
				italics = true,
				disable_italic_comments = false,
				on_highlights = function(hl, _)
					hl["@symbol"] = { link = "@field" }
				end,
			})
		end,
	},
}
