The background color of both my existing and newly created notes has changed to a deep green

The background color of both my existing and newly created notes has changed to a deep green without a known reason, makes the notes look terrible! how can i fix it? just turn it back to initial status.

    That’s presumably from some plugin you installed.

    Thanks! I made some settings for a plugin("zocards") before this happened (it wasn't related to any background color issues as I know). After I removed this suspect plugin, the bug persisted.

    I promise you there's no bug in Zotero that causes a green background for notes. If it's still happening in new notes, you still have some plugin installed that's doing this. If you're only now seeing it in existing notes, that's because of whatever the plugin did to those notes.

    I delete all the plugin and the situation didn't change at all, this troubleshooting is really time-consuming&beyond my ability..

    But is it still green for a new, empty note that you create, with all plugins disabled?

    Can you 1) provide a Report ID and 2) take a screenshot, upload it somewhere (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.), and provide a link here?

    Report ID971753156(upgraded to zoter7 beta,with no plugins left),screenshot:https://1drv.ms/i/s!Aq5EffuZvmRwiDXmDUMvcpaBPQkU?e=IJL82Q,
    seems like the plugins changed the default setting of zotero？I don't have a clue..
  • dstillman
    If you go to the Config Editor in the Advanced tab of the Zotero settings and search for extensions.zotero.note.css, is it set to a value? If so, reset it.
  • dstillman
    Yes, in fact, it looks like ZotCard does this:

    It really should not be doing this, so we'll contact the plugin developer.

    You really helped me out, I really appreciate it!

    hi, I has a question, when I used zotero 7 beta 54 and before, I used the following code to change my zotero note background color. But, recently, I update my zotero to zotero 7 beta 65, the code doesn't work any more.

    Can you help me to modify the code for zotero 7 beta 65 ?

    thanks very much.

    ```css
    body {
    color: blue;
    max-width: 35em;
    margin: 0 auto;
    padding-left: 5px;
    padding-right: 5px;
    background-color: #CBE9CB !important;
    background-image:
    linear-gradient(rgba(211, 211, 211, 0.5) 1px, transparent 1px),
    linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(211, 211, 211, 0.5) 1px, transparent 1px);
    background-size: 20px 20px;
    background-position: 0 0, 0 20px;
    }
    ```
