Does anyone have a directory that deciphers what all of the colour elements do - from this list? Tx a million.

Hi Rober, yest I did - and I played with some of them, but they aren’t having the desired effect. Plus the headings on my posts are showing up as dark grey.

thanks for writing! Bron

And you’ve applied the amended colour scheme to your active theme? Also made sure you refresh your browser.

Yes done all that. Just haven’t tried changing all of them to find eg the one driving the header text in posts. Since as you know better than me, these individual colour changes can have unintended consequences that you might now spot. No worries I’ll wait for Communiteq to be available as they know the site well. Thanks again for your Robert. Glad I had actually tried the basics. Bron

make sure the color scheme is selectable for users.

This image shows a screenshot of a color scheme selection tool with a list of color schemes. The screenshot displays a dark blue background with white text, featuring a list of color schemes on the right and a description of each scheme on the left. The color schemes include primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, header background, header primary, highlight, danger, success, love, selected, and hover, each with a brief description. The "Save" button is located at the top left, accompanied by a "Duplicate" button and a "Copy to Clipboard" button. Below the buttons, there is a section for users to select their preferred color scheme. The overall design of the image suggests that it is a user-friendly interface for selecting colors.

also go to your preferences and set the color scheme you are testing in you interface tab - make sure it’s not being overridden by dark mode (and be sure to save your changes by clicking the button at the bottom).

now you can easily look at your color scheme in one browser window and preview it in another, simply by changing the colors in the scheme, clicking the save button at the top, then refreshing the forum view.
