When viewing the content on Discourse the text background highlights for a brief time. Is it possible to remove that?

It is possible, but note that this might make it a little harder for users to see exactly where they left off in a topic.

This custom CSS should disable it (add it to `admin > customize > themes > edit HTML/CSS > common`).

```SCSS
.topic-body {
  &.highlighted {
    animation: none;
  }
}

```
