I just realised the colour and background of tabs, buttons and text in edit post are linked to the options you chose for the live blog's colour and background - in other words, if you set your blog page's feed to white text and make the page opacity low, the buttons in editor ... disappear. What?! That took actual thought, someone looked at that and thought 'yeah, that is the most effective way to work in an editor. Not just static black text on white, but whatever subtle combination the user wanted for their site; but because the background is white and can't be changed, it all disappears. So to make sure you know what button you're clicking (including publish) or what tab you're in, you have to make sure it's readable; but that obviously limits how your on-site blog looks! What?!
And you can't edit with the blog editor, you have to leave, go to blog page, click custom, design, buttons, pick static colours, watch your live blog turn crap, then go to the blog editor and check to see if the buttons are visible. I mean, was there no QC on this before it was released?! Honestly, every day is another 'wtf' working in the new blog. Like it's astonishing how inept it is.
Hi @Joshua Bearden, hi @fbt,
we released the fix which solves the colours and fonts mapping issues. Please let me know it works now fine on your side. Thanks!
No worries. I was able to start my project in WordPress. But I might check back with Wix in the future if I have another project. Just out of curiosity.
Yes thanks for posting this because I thought I missing something. Can't read anything in my blog editor page. I hope its fixed soon.
Hi @fbt,
thank you for the detailed post. We are aware of the colours mapping issues and are working on that, very soon it will be fixed.
Analytics is in our plans, it will be available in the near future. I am adding your vote for the right-click copy-right feature in the Wishlist.
hang on, on Old Blog, the right-click connect worked, now under new Blog I seem to be able to right click and copy?!
and another, where's the analytics gone from the old blog, do I just guess what customers are clicking on? It was so useful, much like Old Blog was.
