New post color

[JRMBelgium]

I noticed that on this forum, and on my private forum. A new post also has this "ugly" ( I know, subjective ) background/overlay. I can't seem to find the setting in the CSS file that causes this.

On this forum it's "ok" because the yellow overlay fits the background, but on my darker forum, it really doesn't look right.

Look for :target in the CSS.

BTW: It's not a "new post"

It's whatever you searched for...

No, it's when the URL contains a # that matches something in the document. New post will do it, as will going to a permalink to a post, it's not really about searching, that just happens to be a pathway to it. But new post if you return to the topic after posting will just as validly do it (and for the same reason)

I'd also suggest to bring the issue up in the support topic for that theme, if available here. That way the author can fix it.

They already did, yesterday, but didn't get an answer so they came here asking. (I habitually ignore the theme boards.)

Code (index.css) Select Expand

/* Highlight the target item */
.windowbg:target {
background: #ffffe0;
}

Change it to anything you like. I use this...

Code Select Expand

.windowbg:target {
background: #13171b;
}
