News Forum keeps changing text color to red

This is very annoying, and very strange...

Messages in the News Forum are always typed in the default text colour (black), but when the message is viewed as a received email most (but not all) the text has turned red.

Does anyone know what is causing this?

Is what is being posted to the News Forum first typed into MS Word and then copied into Moodle? If it is, then it is bringing along extra code from MS Word that may be causing this. I have seen one case of this happening in my instance. You could check the HTML source of your post to see if you see all that extra code.

Always paste Word text into Notepad first if you can to remove formatting.
