I updated the forum today, but some of the updates feel a bit uncomfortable for me.
I guess the color is still red, also you can edit CSS to get your desired color.
I think this is a theme issue, as my forum is on the latest release and isn’t these colours.
I tried comparing multiple devices. So far, I found that likes are displayed in blue on the iPad Air 6, while on the Samsung S23 Ultra, they are displayed in red.
Do you have some colour filter on your device or browser?
I don’t rule out the possibility that there might be some settings on my computer causing the display color to turn blue.
However, what I can confirm is that the color changed to blue after I completed the update this morning. At the same time, my iPad, which is rarely used and hasn’t been configured, is also displaying blue.
On the other hand, my phone displays red, which is very puzzling to me. Since I don’t understand coding, I’m not sure where the problem lies.
I had my friend test it, and the results showed that likes on his computer also appear blue, while on his phone, they appear red.
Therefore, I’m confident that it’s not an issue with local settings. It’s most likely related to the internal settings of the forum system.
What theme are you using?
Previewing it on Theme Creator also shows the blue hearts and purple links.
I think the purple links are supposed to mimic the default HTML visited link colour, and blue when not yet visited. I would say that this is intentional, but I cannot be sure. are the colours supposed to be like this?
I think it’s the result of changes to that theme about a month ago: DEV: refactor to remove template overrides, add fixes by awesomerobot · Pull Request #23 · discourse/discourse-simple-theme · GitHub
Thank you very much! It seems like this is the issue. Is there any way to resolve it？
You can fork the theme and edit the colour to it’s original colour. You can look at the file’s edit history to see what it originally was.
Thank you very much. Where can I find the color settings? I tried configuring them on the forum’s admin page, but since I’ve always used the default options, I couldn’t make any changes… I also don’t know the parameters.
As for other display options, I’ve tried them all. Posts I’ve clicked on are purple, and likes are blue. However, I still can’t view past history. Is it possible to check and modify the history through the backend code?
Yes, sorry, i should have been clearer. You’ll need to fork the Github repo and make changes.
@awesomerobot
Thank you very much for your continued efforts. I’ve been using the theme you developed. Based on the replies from helpful netizens above, it seems that the theme I’ve been using was updated about a month ago. The updates include clicked links being displayed in purple, while likes are displayed in blue. The mobile version remains unchanged.
If possible, could you restore the color display to its original style in a future update? Alternatively, if it’s convenient, could you let me know where to modify it? If there is any related documentation, although I don’t understand code, I could seek help from my friends.
Thank you in advance!
