Unable to send emails due to color contrast

[CostPlusSA]

Good day to you all. Our Cost Plus Nutrition store has never had any issues with sending emails out to our online shoppers until today and I'm hoping that there is an easy solution.

When I attempt to "review" the email, an error pops up claiming that I need to "adjust unsubscribe link color contrast". The color contrast for the link and text has always been set at #ffffff (white) on a green background.

I have tried to update the color code for the link and text to black on green, used different shades of green, among  other things and it still is asking that I adjust the unsubscribe link color. We have always had this template, so I'm unsure why. 

Any guidance would be most appreciated.

Try a plain text email instead of design. It’ll probably have better deliverability too!

I had the same issue, just put them as black #00000

Feb 23 - having the same issue!  Changed the color over and over and it won't let me send.

Feb 24 - Same issue here.  This has to be a Shopify issue with so many of us having issues at the same time.  Frustrating!

I'm having the same issue - did anyone work out a work around at all please? Don't know what to do now 😞

Just ran into the same issue and figured it out! It wasn’t the unsubscribe text—I had that set to true black (#000000) on a white background. The problem was actually other text in my email. I went through each element and made sure there was high contrast between the text and its background. I had some black text over a light blue background, which I suspect was the culprit.

Basically, double-check every section and ensure all text has strong contrast against its background. Hope that makes sense! Let me know if this helps!

Same issue here. All my text is black and all my backgrounds are white. Still getting the issue...

Update. What I wrote wasn't true! There was some hidden text the same colour as my background! So i think its legit and not a bug.
