Bug: missing/incorrect formatting for links in email footer #2437

Closed

Description

@cybergrrl

Description of the issue 📄

The email footer (invitation email but i assume we use it everywhere) contains lots of links to social media. These do not properly display in light mode.

For some reason, only the Facebook link has a background colour. The other links all display on the light theme's light grey background, which makes them practically illegible.

Tested in Thunderbird on MacOS and in Aquamail on Android.

Note on the dark mode:

I suspect that dark mode is also meant to have a background colour attached to these links? They are all perfectly legible but they do look a bit oddly arranged in relation to the other columns and the left aligned heading. Worth checking that one too.

    I suggest changing the fonts to dark and removing the background-color for the Facebook to 100% transparent.
