Forum:Plainlinks trouble

I just noticed that external anchors within spans with plainlinks class are still showing their arrows.

When I log out the arrows disappear and when I completely blank my css page they disappear.

But when I remove the plainlinks styles one by one the arrows remain.

I'm mystified.

The sitewide css page is here.

 * There shouldn't be anything in your CSS that's conflicting, but it's difficult to tell what the problem is, as your wiki uses the new editor which has an unreliable preview function.


 * How does one turn off the new editor? Granpa 17:06, July 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * You can disable it in WikiaLabs.


 * I am not an admin but I think I turned it off. Granpa 17:14, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

The anchors also have class 'external text'. Could that have somethnig to do with it? Granpa 13:01, July 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * If you can disable Wikia Labs items, you are an Admin. Anyway, Oasis by default supports the plainlinks class, only it's implemented the wrong way. You can fix it by using:

.plainlinks a::after { background-image: none !important; padding: 0 !important; width: 0 !important; }
 * As you can see above, you need the ::after tag, because this is where the image is added by default. That's why plainlinks won't work. (See: Google ) - Tjcool007 (Talk) 14:11, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
