Shoutbox Rules

Hello~

When I click on the shield/rules button on Root Support's shoutbox, the rules for the shoutbox appear. However, when I click on the rules for my shoutbox, a translucent overlay appears but no textbox with the rules. I've let it sit for several minutes at different points, and I can't get the rules to show up.

I have the shoutbox enabled, set to bottom, and I did use bbcode for the rules. However, just in case, I removed the section with bbcode but the rules still wouldn't load even with that gone.

Sounds like CSS or something else in Board Templates is interfering with your shoutbox. I'm guessing this isn't on the default theme? What's the link where you are experiencing this issue?

@Cedric It is on the default theme, but I was editing it before the theme editor. And did a very janky job because I can barely code. 😅 (I'm sorry for the mess in advance. 😱) https://ushinokoku.forumspark.net

No worries. I’ll come have look in a few moments.

I have fixed the issue.

Your custom css had: body{filter:hue-rotate(25deg);}

filter is fundamentally the wrong tool for theming. Any CSS filter on any element creates a new stacking context, which breaks z-index for anything that needs to escape that element (dropdowns, modals, tooltips, the shoutbox, the theme editor).

The best practice for theming is using the Theme editor to change all colors, then add additional effects to classes using CSS but no filter.

Thanks, Cedric! I was planning on removing those soon, since we have the theme editor. So, that's an easy fix. c: Thanks a bunch! (Oh, you removed it for me. That makes my life even easier. Thank you!)
