I have Geeklog 1.3.11 with SpamX installed.

I'm using XtremeRed Layout.

When I am in ADMIN the text of SpamX reads BLack against a Black background so that I can't see it.

I've tried editing XtremeRed/admin/plugins/ ...every file in here to either make text yellow or a table holding data bgcolor yellow, no good.
I've tried editing spamx/templates/ whatever I can find
I've tried editing spamx/admin/whatever I can find
but I cannot find where I can effect a change there.
Anyone have this experience or have a suggestion? Thanks!

Just a guess: Since the Spam-X plugin doesn't wrap its admin page in a block, it's possible that the theme's background color "leaks" into the admin area. The same would then happen if you disable the "wrap page in a block" option in a static page.

If you can't fix it in the theme, try adding calls to COM_startBlock and COM_endBlock in admin/plugins/spamx/index.php, after the call to COM_siteHeader and before the call to COM_siteFooter, respectively.

bye, Dirk

Hey Dirk,
Thanks for the reply.
Can you give me an example of what that "call" would look like?
thanks!

Text Formatted Code
/**        
* Main          
*/              
           
$display = COM_siteHeader ('menu', $LANG_SX00['plugin_name']);

$display .= COM_startBlock ('Spam-X'); // <-- added

$T = new Template ($_CONF['path'] . 'plugins/spamx/templates');

(...)

$display .= COM_endBlock (); // <-- added

$display .= COM_siteFooter (true);

echo $display;
 

Add the two lines marked "added" and see if that helps.

bye, Dirk
