i tried figuring out a wildcard condition for any category with solved enabled but could not. but you can combine all the relevant categories into one code snippet:

```scss
 /* Highlight unsolved topics */
 
.topic-list-item.category-support, 
.topic-list-item.category-another_category,
.topic-list-item.category-yet_another_category:not(.status-solved) {
    background: rgba(255,192,203,.2);
}

```

or one could make a theme component and have a setting to add whatever categories you want to apply. i suspect there may be a way to target categories with solved enabled but i can’t seem to figure it out. 🤔
