Please see the screenshot.

Also, was wondering whether links are supposed to be the same color as regular text for the Reboot theme.

That looks to me like you probably have a WordPress plugin active (maybe even more than one) that is adding content to the TinyMCE toolbar but is doing so incorrectly thus causing the whole toolbar to error.

I take it it has not always been like this so have you added such a plugin recently?

As to links then no - normally they will be defined as a specific colour. However - often times the WordPress theme itself may override the forum styling or even another plugin if CSS is supplied that forces it to the top of the styling hierarchy.

If you tell me what overlay you are using with Reboot then I can tell you what the colour is designed to be.

You were right!  The "duplicator" plugin stole my buttons.

And the overlay is "midnight."

Thanks!

With respect to the buttons, yes.  Even yours are back.

But I'm still wondering about the color of links.

Quick other question before I forget again.  Why do I have to do the captcha thing as a paid member?  I'm currently setting up new forums and been reading on permissions, but haven't had the need for captchas yet (first post approval instead).   Do you have spam even with paid members?

Captcha first - I will check the settings. We recently deactivated it because there was an error that suggested it might be the captcha plugin (it was not) and when fixed, I reactivated it but may have not checked the permissions fully. I will do so after this post.

As to the links then yes - that looks like a mistake. Links are black with a hover colour of a blue/grey.

I will open a ticket to get that changed. Meanwhile - if you tell me what colours you want I can tell you how to easily fix this. And confirm if you are just referring to the links in forum posts or elsewhere as well.

I don't see the captcha, nice! 

Regarding the links, it's only in the forum posts, the other links like post titles are grey.   How about some blue for links in posts?   I can play around with that, just have to know how to do it.

I've wanted to set up a child theme anyway and have a lot to learn here.  Appreciate your help!

Well doing this isn't really customisation in the traditional sense as it will be retained during future theme updates. Go to the forum admin > themes > Custom CSS. Copy and paste the following into the textbox - add your own preferred colours - and click on the Update button.

#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection .spPostSection .spPostContentSection .spPostContent a:link,
#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection .spPostSection .spPostContentSection .spPostContent a:active,
#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection .spPostSection .spPostContentSection .spPostContent a:visited {
color: red;
}

#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection .spPostSection .spPostContentSection .spPostContent a:hover
{
color: green;
}

 

Note that I have just put 'red' and 'green' in here....

Ensure you use the Raw Code button and copy from the popup window.

Whoops - seems like we have a small problem with our highlighter plugin. You should be able to copy and paste from the above however.
