share icon does not use color specified by site <<< issue is resolved >>>

<<< Issue is resolved, no longer a problem >>>

A recent change in SmugMug has rendered the Share icon on my site invisible.

My site background is white. All other icons are blue, as specified in my site design.
The Share icon is white.

A white icon against a white background is pretty much invisible.

Luckily for me I don't enable sharing for site visitors - although I do find it pretty disconcerting when I am trying to share photos. At first I thought the sharing option was gone and I knew that I hadn't removed it for me.

Can this be changed to use the site-specfied color?

Do you have any custom CSS? While my site is white, I have CSS to make my lightbox black. I removed all of my custom CSS and it shows fine.

denisegoldberg

Oh interesting.
I do have custom CSS but I don't believe there is anything related to the buttons in Lightbox. I will check.

denisegoldberg

So weird! When I reported this problem I saw the share icon in white in both Microsoft Edge and Chrome. Now it is displaying properly.

Thanks for commenting @Hikin' Mike, it made me look again.

Did you have custom CSS?

denisegoldberg

No custom CSS - something must have changed on smug's side of things.
Nothing changed on my site between the time I took the first screenshot and the time I took the second one.

They did something because look at "my" share icon on the screen capture versus yours. Odd.

denisegoldberg

They definitely did something.

Since I posted the second screen shot the share icon in that gallery changed so it now looks like the one in your screen capture.

Mine's the same as Mike's in both gallery and lightbox.

Mine has also changed so they are all the new icon.

Before I left, we were planning some improvements to the share panel, which look like they're live. Not only is the icon different, but some of the interactions are changed. When in Lightbox, sharing now shares only the photo or an embed link. Gallery sharing has been removed from within Lightbox. The gallery link can be obtained from the Gallery Share button (which also had its icon changed). This too has been simplified, with options for the gallery link, a mobile web app link, or a slideshow link.

Looks nice and simplified from my perspective (I never saw the designs for this before I left). I personally love these. Nice job SmugMug team!
(Though I'll add the 2 lines previewing the text that will be copied looks a bit weird when the copied text exceeds 2 lines).
