Extend Color Pallet & HTML/CSS Usage in Posts

[FeigelInc]

I'm just curious is there a way we could extend the color pallet?

I'm also curious why you can't use HTML/CSS in posts anymore?

Hi @FeigelInc,

To answer your second question, I would suggest reading through the following topic announcing the new editor. There has been some discussion in the topic about the removal of HTML in posts too.

tl;dr we chose a fixed range of colours that we adapt based on if you are using light or dark mode. Adding any colours may mean posts are illegible on either light or dark mode.

Please add more colour options to the editor. I need my Pinks, Blues and Greens to be brighter. Also there is no brown. More_Colors_Needed.

How are you going to handle users toggling dark mode?   For example brown on black will be virtually impossible to read.  Blues on black will also be difficult.

Many font colours that is not in the editor can work fine with light and dark mode. Fonts can be set to bold to display lighter font colours. We should be able to choose whichever font colours we need and not limited to the few.

 

Brown in dark mode.

As mentioned by Matt above, the limited selection is an intentional change within the platform.
