Some of the color codes don't work for me. For example, when I select Magenta this comes up:

What is it that's not working for you exactly? I got it working above :/

^ When I highlight text and click on certain colors, they work, but some come up like in my first post. It's been like this since I can remember.

The above usually only happens when you apply too many different coded formats to a single post, and it happens with vBulletin 3.8.2 too. Its something that vBulletin never seem to have phased out, with any of their releases. Its 'not important' enough, I don't think.

But I shall bring it up with them at the support forum now! :) As well as recent other issues, its not on!!

^ Certain colors never work for me though, even when I only apply one color to a post. Thanks for posting it at the support forum! Hope it gets resolved, I love my colors :D

As I suspected, it was a problem with vBulletin, and the version we use here - we have yet to upgrade to the most recent version, and so old bugs are still present I'm afraid...


2) For the RGB codes issue: you're using VB 4.0.4, the latest version is 4.0.6 and that is documented as being fixed in 4.0.6 as shown here: http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-4062 (Except for webkit browsers, apparently)

What this basically means is that the RGB colour coding that vBulletin use is having issues with a) VB 4.0.4 and b) webkit broswers such as Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

Until we update to 4.0.6 this problem will continue. It shouldn't be an issue constantly - I myself get it sometimes - but its just something you're going to have to perservere with, for a couple of days, at most. I want to make sure that ALL of our mods (so that's everything from the colouring of the usergroup names, to the market, to the currency system we use, and much more that you probably won't notice, but does assist you in your browsing) are compatible with 4.0.6.

There's a new upgrade already? It's not costly, is it? I wouldn't want you to go out of your way just to fix the color coding lol.

ALL upgrades are free in the VB4 series thankfully! :P
