Yes, seems to be gone, but I can't really tell if something is still applied, since the site uses the custom styles from my profile :D

Some of the styles are a little off, due to some upgrades during the years though.

The logo I had is gone.

PS: Actually the custom css is still applied, the background on my profile page uses black/grey shade rather than the default blue of the rest of the pages.

Maybe you experienced some downtime last week, this was partly related to the CSS and some crafty user.

Even though the programmer has fixed/tweaked some stuff, we opted to remove the feature to avoid what has happened last week

Haha, so I now know what he tried to do, either by mistake, or intentionally exploiting css injection vulnerabilities :D

In fact I wanted to test it and report if something is wrong, but never actually got to it. Custom CSS without sanitizing it can be dangerous.

PS: I think it is possible to steal someones account using that kind of XSS attack, but haven't drilled much in the topic.

So..a good call, I would say.

Good question.

IMO, any customization needs to be controlled with the appropriate interface for that.

I guess that feature will be back at some point, but not the free form css input.

If a "theme" customization is needed, then some sort of a theme editor has to be implemented.

Is that a question or what do you mean Klopcha? Standard profile options are still acessible like changing your profile picture, CSS not

Problem solved. I found new settings.
