Colleague tracker Web Part on the MySite does not display data!

 

Moved from https://blogs.msdn.com/vijgang

If you apply the Obsidian Theme to your MySite, the Colleague tracker webpart might show some blank rows! It will look something like this,

On investigating further by selecting that area using the mouse, you find that the text is actually there. This happens because the background color and the text color are the same and hence we do not see the Text.

How do we fix this?

You need to modify the Obsidian style sheet file to fix this.

table.ms-qrblinks tr td a, table.ms-qrblinks tr td a:link, table.ms-qrblinks tr td a:visited, table.ms-qrblinks tr td a:hover {
color:#ffffff;
}

  • Change this to

table.ms-qrblinks tr td a, table.ms-qrblinks tr td a:link, table.ms-qrblinks tr td a:visited, table.ms-qrblinks tr td a:hover {
color:#ffffff;
color:#ff0000;
}

  • The reason we are adding the 2nd color attribute is to overwrite the earlier color attribute value. We can also replace the first value if needed.
  • This sets the foreground color to RED. You can of course set this to a color of your choice.
  • Save the file and browse to the MySite again and you should be able to see the data.
