Minor Color Issue

In my AOPS class, there are points on your report where your red bar turns orange, and your orange turns green, well my orange bar passed the small green mark but the bar did not turn green. I can't take a screenshot, but my orange bar should be green according to the color marking.

I already submitted an extension but I cannot edit it because I submitted an unfinished solution. I have not viewed the solution.

As outlined in this (locked) post, the forum/blog creation message is out of date. It has been over a year since that post, and it still has not changed. I don't know if this got lost somewhere in the "passing this along" chain or if it was determined to be irrelevant, but it seems like a relatively simple fix 

Contest collection PDFs don't work when LaTeX is embedded within BBCode
by Equinox8, Feb 26, 2025, 3:25 AM
This could very well be reported before, however a quick search did not find anything.
While embedding LaTeX commands within BBCode (like this: [i]text $\dfrac{1}{2}$ text[/i]) typically displays as intended within a forum, trying to render a contest collection using these commands breaks the PDF renderer.
