2.3.7 Font Color Issue

[Greenandgold]

Affected version

2.3.7

Occasionally users will post something, and it either appears black, or white depending on if they have dark mode or light mode. I'm not sure why because it's never happened to me and I'm not sure what is causing it. This either needs to be resolved, or there needs to be a "back to default" font option so users can fix it.

I might be running into the same issue (posted about it here). I'm fairly certain the users are not explicitly colorizing their posts because the BBCode always refers to the same almost-black color, RGB(20, 20, 20), which isn't one of the color picker colors. I haven't noticed a symmetrical "white" issue, but that could be down to the balance of Light/Dark users on our site.

They are pasting the text. So if they are using Light mode, and they grab black text and paste it, those in Dark mode will not see it.

I agree there needs to be a solution. XF should be able to "flip" the text where needed.

There's some subtlety to it though, or there seems to be. I've tried every silly copy/paste scenario I can think of, trying to reproduce this. The only repros I get are when the text I copy is already BBCoded to the color I don't want it to be.
