    Everytime I try to change the font color of a header in the wiki, using the handy little WYSIWYG editor, it displays with before the text, and after it.

    Yes, the tag shows up, as below:

    Episode Guide

    I'm not using any HTML, not typing the tags in... what am I doing wrong?

    Hello Taria,

    A simple way to change the color is to surround the text with the magic "Color changers" known as %'s.

    For example, the following code will change the header to be red:

    h3. %{color:red}Color Test.%

    I believe that it accepts only the common colors - to paraphrase a quote found elsewhere on the forums: There is no periwinkle, only purple. If I can help any more, please ask!

    (In my haste to be helpful, I failed to note that this help request was...old. Hopefully it'll help someone else in need, though!"

    Haha! Just for clarification, it does accept 6 digit HTML color codes in place of the common names, or it does on my wiki at any rate...

    Right-o. I completely forgot about that - textile was picky about getting color to work properly, but I think you can use the 6 digit HTML colors, the three-digit textile ones, or the basic color commands. Sorry about that.
