Can't change font colour of 'log in' and 'sign up' buttons in theme?

AI-generated summary

The discussion revolves around changing the font color of the ‘log in’ and ‘sign up’ buttons in a Discourse theme. Discoursenaut initially inquires about the possibility of changing the text or background color of these buttons, mentioning the use of a dark/light toggle.

Heliosurge suggests a theme component that might solve the issue, while Jonathan5 proposes creating a theme component with CSS targeting .login-button or sign-up-button.

Discoursenaut seeks clarification on whether this solution applies to the login landing page or the on-screen buttons themselves. Heliosurge thinks Jonathan5’s idea is better and also suggests an alternative solution using markdown and the bbcode color plugin to change the text and background color.

I don’t see an option to change the text or background color for the log in/sign up buttons, is there a way to do this?

(using dark/light toggle GitHub - discourse/discourse-color-scheme-toggle: Color Scheme Toggler to switch between Dark / Light schemes set by the user's preferences · GitHub)

Not sure on the toggle.

This Customization > Theme component might do what your looking for.

You could create a theme component with CSS for .login-button or sign-up-button.

Thanks for the info, does that just apply to the login landing page after you click the button, or the on screen buttons themselves, see for reference:

Trying to change the either blue background colour here (don’t see this in settings) or the font color.

Tbh @Jonathan5 imho has the better solution idea by targetting the element directly.

If the trendy login supports markdown and you have bbcode or bbcode color plugin installed you might be able to use

[color=black][bgcolor=blue]Login[/bgcolor][/color]

That should make Text black and background blue.
