The label and tasks remain almost greyed out even when it shows after a conditional activity task?
Both the label and task are initially set to be hidden in the Restricted Access properties.
When they appear, they can be accessed but are ghosted compared to Task One?

Hope this info is of some help.
Hi,
In your previous post you said somthing about testing badges? There is a problem with badges. If you enable Debugging ( Site Administration > Development > Debugging ) you will see the warnings/errors associated.
This may/maynot have anything to do with the hidden problem, but just letting you know.

I experienced the same issue. I'm using a label to encourage the student to proceed to the next step after completing a lesson activity. The label is hidden until the lesson activity is completed. However, when it appears it is greyed-out.
The same issue effects the description of activities. Greyed out text after becoming visible
Same issue using leatherbound, standard theme and afterburner.
Could be this that is causing this problem...
.activity.label .dimmed_text {
opacity: 0.5; -ms-filter:"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)";
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
}
Is this the same issue that was picked up and fixed during 2.5 testing? (As pointed out by Andrew though - this is not a bootstrapbase issue, or actually related to any specific theme, it has to do with the .dimmed_text class identified by Mary still being applied)

Students do appear to need to log out and back in for it to pick up the fact that the activity should be released, or has there been a regression somewhere?
I signed up and created a bug report, how can I link this to the existing one you mentioned?
When I searched I focused on the bug names not the comments, so I missed this earlier.
EDIT: I added a comment to my bug report with links to this discussion and the bug report you mentioned.
The activity is released for me, but text still appears grey. Logging in and out again had no effect on the text color.
As a quick fix I'm using the activity name as a prompt. This text works as intended.
The greyed out text is coming from Base theme for all themes.
This looks to me that it is as you have found Andrew, that it is in the way you set the conditions. Which leads me to suspect that there are options which if set wrongly become mutually exclusive. So there will always be potential for errors to creep in.
I am experiencing the same problem with conditional activities. Site has upgraded recently to 2.5 and this has only started happening. I have used conditional activities successfully in the past.
I have just checked courses that have been built before the upgrade. They were working fine before the upgrade, now the conditional activities are not working as expected.
Mary, can't quite follow you. Is there a set of conditions that works and one that doesn't?
Possibly, I'm not really sure it was only a hunch. If two things are set to be opposites of each other at the same time, then that cannot work as one excludes the other, so the item remains greyed out, because the conditions have not been set, although they have, if you get my mad logic?
I will try and get someone to look at where all the logic is added in core and see if they can find out what's happening. It could be a CSS selector restyling it.
