Title: Change font colour in the footer?
Post by: ebastler on January 27, 2024, 09:14:50 am
It has come up many times, but has not been changed so far: The links at the very bottom of the forum pages are very hard to read (or even to notice), dark blue font on a black-and-grey dot pattern. Some of them are boilerplate version and license information, hence maybe are meant to be unobtrusive. But at least the link to the mobile version of the site is useful, and questions where to find it have come up repeatedly.

Could the font be changed to a brighter colour for better contrast?

Yup, the following change in the theme's index.css at line 1497 (at least in the version served live... not sure if SMF does any preprocessing on it) makes it usable and somewhat consistent with existing colors:

Code: [Select]
/* The footer wih copyright links etc. */
#footer_section
{
text-align: center;
background: url(../images/theme/main_block.png) no-repeat 0 -820px;
padding-left: 20px;
color: #000;
}
#footer_section a {
color: #7f9db9;
}
