Hello, How do I remove the glow from the buttons, and change to color of the topic editor (from blues). Thank you in advance! ---
### Author: ![melhosseiny](https://sea3.discourse-cdn.com/meta/user_avatar/meta.discourse.org/melhosseiny/32/248891_2.png) [@melhosseiny](https://meta.discourse.org/u/melhosseiny) #### Post date: [June 18, 2019, 5:29pm UTC](https://meta.discourse.org/t/ghost-theme/111806/16 "2019-06-18T17:29:47Z")
To remove the glow, you can set `box-shadow` to `none` for default, primary and danger buttons on hover ``` .btn.btn-default, .btn.btn-primary, .btn.btn-danger { .discourse-no-touch & { &:hover, &.btn-hover { box-shadow: none; } } } ``` To also remove it from navigation bars (including the main one) ``` .nav-pills, .admin-controls .nav-pills { >li>a:hover, >li.active>a, >li>a.active { box-shadow: none; } } // On mobile only .nav-pills > li.navigation-toggle { box-shadow: none; } ``` To change the background color of the topic editor, I suggest you look at the themeā€™s source code and search for where the `$bios` sass variable is used. For example, to change the background color of the composer to a red color ``` #reply-control { background: red; } ``` If you do that, you probably also want to change the composer popupā€™s background as well (it pops up when you start typing and doesnā€™t show up on mobile) ``` // On desktop only #composer-popup { background: red; } ``` ---

Ghost changes some topic templates and make a bunch of stuff flex, so it will be incompatible with any other plugin or theme that expects the standard Discourse topic template. Getting it to play with other plugins is not planned and out of scope of this theme. ---

Just dropping in a bug report from one of my users regarding this theme: I attempted to resize the text via Discourse preferences, (Preferences \> Interface) and the change isnā€™t taking effect. The Larger Font theme is contrary to my needs, so I canā€™t use it as a workaround.

The font size is hard coded into the theme, so it canā€™t be overwritten with the text size selector. It would be a fairly small change to update the theme to set the font size based on the classes that get added to Discourse by the text size selector. Iā€™ve tested it out with the font set to 14px, and it seems to me that the theme still looks good with the font at this size. It is possible that it breaks the layout in places that I havenā€™t looked at though. ---

Thanks for reporting this. Ghost restructures the `full-page-search` template and the original template seems to have diverged since. @Falco @awesomerobot I submitted a pull request to use the original template as it is no longer necessary to override it [https://github.com/discourse/ghost/pull/4](https://github.com/discourse/ghost/pull/4) ---
