Text in red.

[G-CPTN]

Whenever the word police appears in PPruNe it is coloured red - at least it is for me.

Is this the case for other members, or has someone applied this filter to my account?

Maybe I have inadvertently applied it when searching for the word (which I did immediately before the change occurred) - in which case can I correct this?

Oh dear G-CPTN, what have you done? it's the normal black for me, have you tried logging out and then back in?

[G-CPTN]

Yup, I logged-out and cleared my cookies when I lost the facility to grey-out read contributions, but still this persists.

Of course I could suspect the actions of a mod - but why?

[G-CPTN]

I've just repeated the logout/clear cookies/login and the red has disappeared.

I confess that the earlier logout/login wasn't accompanied by clearing the cookies, so maybe that is the answer?

:confused:


Edited to add:-
This has also rectified the loss of the greying feature for read threads, so maybe the cookie is the solution to these maladies?

[green granite]

I'm not certain whether the 'whats been read' info is stored in a cookie or not, but I never clear pprune cookies unless I have a problem, as it means I have to sign in again next time I visit.

Not guilty, m'lud.
