Simon Woods Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 It works to highlight with the default colours. Unsure the colour changes work on a custom theme, though. I will make the change in the theme myself easily enough but just wanted to let you know that using the built-in colour picker doesn't change the colours on my custom theme.

Is it possible to view it in operation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is half-working now -- the background has changed but the border has not. When I first tested changing the colours earlier it didn't work at all. Example: http://revolutions.chroniclesofthedas.com/index.php?/topic/4782-rogue-one-a-star-wars-story/#comment-93739 Maybe I need to refresh the site's data? Is there even anything like that that could have an effect on this? Edited August 28, 2016 by Simon Woods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you see any reference to something like this or the highlight.css file? :target + .cPost { background: {setting="highlightLinkedPosts_colour"} !important; border-color: {setting="highlightLinkedPosts_border"} {setting="highlightLinkedPosts_border"} {setting="highlightLinkedPosts_border"} {setting="highlightLinkedPosts_border"}; } :target + .cPost aside { background: {setting="highlightLinkedPosts_colour"} !important; } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The border-color has a line through it. Got that from here: http://revolutions.chroniclesofthedas.com/index.php?/topic/4782-rogue-one-a-star-wars-story/#comment-81806 Also, it's ehren's Dispersion theme with a bunch of custom css.

Michael.J Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 It it possible to get either a copy of the theme or acp access to the theme editor. I'm not noticing any issues in IPB but I'll need to see if the theme is using different css in the topic view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
