Hi Bob!

Small problem
After I installed CAS on the forum, I can't properly edit any of the templates on the forum. Even those that have nothing to do with CAS.
For example, I just modified the account_signature template by simply adding text.

As soon as I saved the template changes, all the forum pages turned into a jumble of letters and words without CSS. And there was an error on a yellow background:



I did a search and found the line

`background: mix(@xf-textColorMuted, @xf-avatarBg, 25%) !important;`

in the file core_xa_cas.less


I commented out this line, and the problem immediately disappeared.

EDIT: Removed errors that has nothing to do with CAS! CAS does not have anything to do with SVG (not a single line of code in CAS dealing with SVGs).

Its CSS copied from XFRM (which has recently been updated.

I did a search and found the line

`background: mix(@xf-textColorMuted, @xf-avatarBg, 25%) !important;`

in the file core_xa_cas.less

Try replacing it with this (this is the updated CSS in XFRM for the same use case).

background: mix(xf-default(@xf-textColorMuted, black), xf-default(@xf-avatarBg, white), 25%) !important;

I just confirmed this fix in XFRM, AMS, CAS, EMS, IMS, LD, RMS, Showcase and UBS (both for the XF 2.2 and XF 2.3 versions).

You will have to apply this manually for the XF 2.2 version of CAS. I just updated CAS 2.3.0, so it will be applied automatically when upgrading to CAS 2.3.0.

Extremely weird that its been this way for several YEARS and not a single license holder found it until TODAY!
