Wiki layout broken - by update?

[diafero]

The wiki layout is partially broken, as can be seen on the Recently changed sites or the history page.

I don't see what you mean, diafero. The layout appears as it should - or as I would expect it.

Unless diafero means that the layout for those two pages should be identical, which it is not.

The wiki layout has always had some random bugs, probably because it was hacked together in a few hours trying to re-use as much of the phpBB theme code as possible

I've thought a few times about trying to update/fix it, but then I end up wanting to redo the entire site theme... and at the moment I definitely don't have time for that! Once you're logged in on the wiki, you should be able to change to a different theme in your user preferences (if the theme is broken for you, or if you (like me) are obsessive and can't stand things being out of place )

I mean "broken" as in "using obviously undesired background colours": The recent changes site has a bright background around the box containing namespace selection and the option to invert the selection. In the revision history, the bright background is even more annoying as the white text on it is unreadable:

Ah, now I see what you mean.
Indeed, a white text in front of a bright background is a bit funny.

So you would prefer it looking like this?

Well, that can be changed in the main.css file at #pagehistory li.selected.
Current version:

Code: Select all

#pagehistory li.selected {
    background-color:#F9F9F9;
    border:1px dashed #AAAAAA;
}


Version of my example (black background):

Code: Select all

#pagehistory li.selected {
    background-color:#000000;
    border:1px dashed #AAAAAA;
}


CSS code for the Recent Changes page can be found in main.css as well:

Code: Select all

table {
    background-color:white;  /* maybe change to black */
    color:black;            /* maybe change to white */
    font-size:100%;
}


Unfortunatelly I am not able to change this online.

Yes, that screenshot looks like it used to be (I still don't like so bright text on so dark background, but it's way better than bright text on bright background )
