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.
 * It doesn't work, with or without the, but it works fine on the Victorious Wiki. There's something in the iCarly Wiki's css that is preventing it from working, could somebody please look at it? --  SeddieBerserker   (talk)  00:52, May 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * You can remove the spaces before the semicolons, they're unnecessary. Your cache also has yet to update, so you'll have to wait for it to do that first.
