Grades page secondary text nearly invisible with custom theme

New Features

On the native Canvas Grades page, the secondary text underneath assignment names (for example, “Module 0: Assignments” and “Module 0: Study Plan”) becomes extremely light blue when BetterCampus is enabled.

I tested changing the theme's Body, Links, Foreground, Header and Sidebar Text colors, but none of those settings affect this text.

I also manually updated BetterCampus, refreshed Canvas, and logged out and back in with no change.

When I disable the BetterCampus Chrome extension and refresh the same Grades page, the text immediately returns to Canvas's normal dark gray and is completely readable. Turning BetterCampus back on causes the problem again.

It appears that BetterCampus is applying a theme color/style to Canvas's secondary assignment text that isn't exposed in the theme color controls.

    Hi! I'm following up on this issue, which I originally reported on August 27. The secondary assignment text on the Canvas Grades page becomes nearly invisible when BetterCampus is enabled. I've confirmed that disabling the extension immediately resolves the issue. Is this something your team is investigating, or is there a workaround available? Thank you!
