Hi Guys

 

Any ideas why my icon set is not showing the colour and is just washed out?

Forum icons are shown greyed-out when nothing in the forum is unread for the user. 

There is not setting to change this. You could override it in your custom.css if you need to. 

.ipsItemStatus.ipsItemStatus_read {
opacity: 1;
}

 

So if a post has no views and has not been read it shows greyed out? Does this apply if only Admins read the post? Does it have to be a member to read it to get the icon to show up?

It has nothing to do with views. It shows if there is any unread content in those forums for the specific user looking at the forum index. 

The reason I ask is that we are both admins and the wife has a post in introduce yourself that I have read (As an admin). The icon to us both still shows greyed out. So I was wondering what the logic is and if it is different rthen if a member views it.
 

At the moment it is still greyed out.

Where do I find the custom CSS?

Which is correct.

you have read it, so it’s grayed out. 
Once your wife creates a new post in this forum, it shouldn’t appear grayed out anymore.

Ahhh got yah
