Category colours

AI-generated summary

In the discussion “Category colours”, sianwhite is trying to change the category colours on their forum, but the default brown colour is undesirable. robmc helps by explaining that the “Background Colour” option allows selecting a different colour, and additional colours can be added in the Admin Settings. sianwhite is grateful for the solution, and robmc playfully downplays their own genius.

As problems to have go, this isn’t a big one at all, but it’s driving me nuts nonetheless.

I am trying to change our forum’s categories. I have renamed the existing ones, and need to create a couple more.

When I create a new category the badge colour defualts to this horrible brown colour that looks like something on the bottom of your shoe. There is no option to select or change this while creating the category.

Any ideas?? I know it’s not a big problem, but I don’t want our forum to be overrun with brown.

Yes, the ‘Background Colour’ in the image above is the colour selector for the category. This relates to the colour of this line and to the button / bullet used on the listing

Try selecting one of the available colours. You can also add more colours in the Admin Settings

good luck!

Update: example:

Ahhh you’re a genius, and I’m really silly. Thank you!

I am quite certain that neither of those things is true :wink:
