Potential side effect of this? Testing now.

Tag CSS with !important flag

I removed the !important from those extra-info-wrapper colors and it didn’t break anything that I could see.

Edit: Nope, not that.

Potential side effect of this?

My instance is running a commit before @neil made that change and I’m still seeing the issue, so I don’t think it’s related

[jomaxro (Joshua Rosenfeld)]

Ha! I was just editing my post, not related.

What @awesomerobot is suggesting in this post would prevent this from happening

Cleaning up our color palette

Turns out someone has essentially already built what I was thinking of. This always assumes you want an acceptable level of contrast (by WCAG standards) — but should be adaptable to set different contrast levels for things like borders/inactive buttons, etc http://codepen.io/MadeByMike/pen/sDpxg

Can anyone with dark theme confirm this is fixed?

[david (David Taylor)]

It is not fixed

This is fixed now.
Thanks @david!
