Child "issues" retain the coloring of their parent #6

Open jfass opened 8 years ago

I replied to a comment that was a "closed" "issue" (so, colored green). For the reply, I selected "issue" but not "closed", which I assumed would change it to a red color. But it appeared green, apparently inheriting from the original comment.

Maybe this is OK. Maybe child comments (replies) should not be able to be issues / open (or closed) ... maybe new issues should be input as new original comments?

Adam and I talked about the replies inheriting the status of the parent, this seem logical for the use case I came up with. As far as your situation, might it be best to create a new issue?

I'm trying to figure out how to get CSS to address this.

At the moment, I've made it so that something that is "Closed" and an "Issue" will always be green, even if it under another issue that is not closed.

However, if an "Issue" is under a "Closed Issue", it does not appear red, as you'd expect.

It's sort of a delicate dance involving CSS priorities, and when it comes to CSS I've got two left feet.
