Discourse Coloured Text

[merefield (Robert)]

“BBCode-lite” without the need to install a plugin …

Adds a simple control (palette icon) to the Composer to facilitate colouring of the foreground and background of text

• Select a word or text
• Hit the palette control
• It will be wrapped like so: [wrap=color color=# bgcolor=#]word[/wrap]
• Replace the #s with html-compatible colour names, e.g. “red”, “grey” … experiment.

NB Same caveats apply as to BBCode: can be used to hide text.

Thanks a ton for this useful little component.
It doesn’t seem to be applying the composer.color_ui_button_title properly, both when left at the default or when customized:

Hello there. I don t have color text button like on this foto. Here I don t see too.

This theme-component is not installed here. That is why the button does not appear.
Did you add it to your site?
