Forum:Block log display

You know the block display that shows up on a blocked user's contributions page that says, "This user is currently blocked"? How can I make that box appear bright pink like it does on Wikipedia? --  SeddieBerserker   (talk)  04:34, May 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * You can use the MediaWiki:Blockedtext page on your wiki to change the message. Find the code for the shade of pink you want from Help:Color and add background: #FFC0CB in the style tag. 15:21, May 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * I believe OP wants to change MediaWiki:Blocked-notice-logextract, which can't be styled as easily since it only contains the text. However the  css class, which defines the style within the box, can be modified in a wiki's MediaWiki:Wikia.css. Sovq 16:24, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

Could you tell me the text I need to insert into the css? --  SeddieBerserker   (talk)  18:36, May 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * It worked on Victorious Wiki, but not on iCarly Wiki. Could someone tell me what I did wrong? --  SeddieBerserker   (talk)  20:28, May 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not getting any CSS at all at iCarly wiki - probably a server-side issue, I'd wait it out.
 * There is a syntax error in the iCarly CSS. The "!important" needs to go after the semi-colon in order for it to work properly. That is, if it needs to be there at all. —Topher208 { Talk } 22:34, May 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * always goes before the semicolon and after the value of the rule. Otherwise, CSS will try to interpret it as a rule, which will either throw an unrecognized rule warning, or a fatal error.
