Colored text no longer colored on this forum.

Thread needs solution

Prior postings with colored text no longer show any colors. What has changed.

1. red text ...The preceding words should appear in red but appear to me as black text. The next line is the syntax used to create the red text. The link contains a variety of red, blue, & green colored text. Link/Post showed color for months but now does not.

<font color="red">red text</font >

My colored text is still colored on the Wilders forum but not on the Acronis forums so the issue does not appear to be my computer. The loss of color is same in several different browsers. The loss of color appears to have happened within the last 18 hours.

Hello GroverH,

Thanks for reporting about the issue.

I will notify our administrator and we will figure out what's wrong with formatting.

Thanks,

Andrey.

I think the problem is HTML land has just realised it's been missing the U in colour, and has just popped out to find it! Normal service will be resumed when it gets back. :)

Colin,
I think you are right. Probably some obscure change in a line of Drupal forum code not related but had far reaching tentacles. This type troubleshooting can take hours or days and has been known to cause a programmer to lose his/her cool.

Hope they have program documentation to show what code changes were made--probably July 19 as the problem is confined to this forum.

Is anyone looking to correct the problem using the quote syntax as well as the color issue with colored text?

Hello,

I've discussed the problem with our Forum Administrator.

It looks like we never had colored text feature on our forum after migrating to Drupal. It's been available on Wild Security before.

We are working on enhancing  our current system and this feature will be added to the list of changes.

Thanks,

Andrey.

Since colored text and indented boxed quoting worked prior to July 19, the switch to Drupal must have been at that time?

Is there some other syntax that could be used to again implement the use of these two features?

Thanks.
Grover
