Issue with Dark mode.

When using Dark Mode, the {{Not yet}} template retains its light color.

The {{N/a}} template, however, changes color to match the mode.

If this is the wrong location, please let me know. Redacted II (talk) 01:43, 30 July 2024 (UTC) Courtesy links added, no content change. Primefac (talk) 13:17, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sohom Datta, is this just a case of adding the var for dark mode as you did here? Primefac (talk) 13:20, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It took a bit more messing around, but the template should be fixed :) Sohom (talk) 13:44, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Redacted II (talk) 14:01, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Noticing this particularly with {{TBA}}. Is the plan a generic fix, individual template fixes, or wait for dark mode to fix itself? (— 𝐬𝐝𝐒𝐝𝐬 — - talk) 16:34, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template not working well with sticky header templates

This template, transcluded by multiple other templates, or rather background colors aren't working well with {{sticky table start}} and {{sticky table end}}, both of which were recently created. It also may not work well with {{sticky header}}. Would separate "styles.css" subpage or a separate module fix the issues with those templates? George Ho (talk) 07:28, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

George Ho. Can you link to some example tables in articles, sandboxes, your user pages, etc.?

Jroberson108. I happened upon this talk page while trying to make colored table column headers screen reader accessible. Per:

Template talk:Sticky table start#Disable scroll window. And: Enable sticky headers

--Timeshifter (talk) 20:21, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, either pending or never mind for now. As I just found out, either {{won}} itself is the sole issue, or I didn't know how to properly use the {{won}} yet, not {{sticky table start}} yet. Indeed, '''{{won|place=1st}}''' doesn't render cell formatting properly. I tried other methods, so then I realized that the style parameter works for cell-formatting. Here's one sandbox version, but it's more about (improperly using) the {{won}} itself. I'll provide a more substantial example than this if I can. George Ho (talk) 21:13, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@George Ho and Timeshifter: On Template:Table_cell_templates/doc#Templates, I replaced the surrounding div with the template and made row1 sticky then previewed it. I tried this with both sticky templates. The background colors still showed, even for {{won}}. Jroberson108 (talk) 21:19, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See this version. I went ahead and made the top table header sticky for the table of templates. I don't have the time to make the side sticky work correctly since there are so many rowspans. Someone else can do that if they want. See how here:

Template:Sticky table start

As Jroberson108 said I also don't see any background colors being removed by the sticky template. At least in Firefox on a Win 10 Pro PC. --Timeshifter (talk) 22:51, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Links in N/A are unreadable in dark mode

This edit request to Template:N/a has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Currently, links in {{N/A}} are unreadable in dark mode, as the presence of the inline background property causes ext.wikimediamessages.styles/theme night.less to match the custom inline-style-color selector, which causes the color property to be set to var(--color-base-fixed, #202122).

I propose converting {{N/A}} to use TemplateStyles now that T360562 and T361934 are fixed. — ExE Boss (talk) 16:00, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ExE Boss Huh, did you link to the wrong template {{N/A}} seems fine to me in dark mode. Can you give me a small testcase to reproduce what you are talking about. Sohom (talk) 17:14, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Sohom Datta: It only happens on main namespace pages, see the “CPUID EAX=1: Processor Family IDs” table on CPUID § EAX=1: Processor Info and Feature Bits for an example. — ExE Boss (talk) 18:10, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ExE Boss That table seems fine to me, can you clip a picture of what you are seeing? Sohom (talk) 13:06, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Sohom Datta: On rows 3h and 8h, the links in the “Intel” column are too dark:

— ExE Boss (talk) 23:35, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: I have fixed the immediate issue by unsetting the absolute color. This probably needs some further analysis (and potentially a phab bug). I'm marking this as not done since the template was not moved to use templatestyles. Sohom (talk) 04:36, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Has something changed?

Greetings to the experts!

I would like to ask for some information regarding the following. The WinDL template previously displayed a yellow or pink background under the entered result for a draw and loss. Etc.: {{WinDL|res=D|'''1'''–1}}

For example here: 2024–25 Debreceni VSC season#Milestones --> 50th appearances

Something has changed recently, as it no longer displays the result, only the letters D or L. I would like to ask for help to make the result visible again.

Thanks, Cakesam (talk) 23:44, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I still see the colours, and there have been no changes that would have affected that page (though an extra parameter was added). Primefac (talk) 12:25, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Primefac, thanks! I have found what must need for correct formula: text=.
