Anyone else have issues with unread alerts now showing up with a blue background, black text?

It’s interesting that these color changes on forums, Verticlescope or not changed at the same time.
Since most of these forums look and act pretty much the same, I’m guessing they use the same software vendor.

Very true the most popular forum software is XenForo. Vertical scope uses that on all their sites and we also use it here.. it subscription based so you initially purchased the software then you pay a subscription fee every year for the updates and most of the themes are made by third parties so if you google Xenfor themes you’ll see there’s a massive you’ll see there’s a massive variety of different colour combinations and styles. The theme we were previously using, seemed to break after a software update.

The new theme you can choose between a dark or light version, and you can resize the width of the site if you guys ever come across a theme you want for the site We can always add it. We can have unlimited styles/themes and users can pick the one they want.

I prefer the lighter background in place today over the black background. The Indian Motorcycle forum uses the black background and I find it difficult to read.
