John Richardson (ID: 00000038e2903bd6) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/11/2020 This is a great idea and very helpful. It's still working, mostly... ...but doesn't seem to work for all the standard Trello label colours (e.g. the light blue / cyan, and pink). I'm wondering if Trello have added more colours since this was updated? Any chance of an update to reflect this?

Martina Bezděková (ID: 000000f1b18ee281) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 09/18/2018 Sadly, it works for only 1 label. Others are still the same :(

Christopher Wulff (ID: 0000009fd37cab12) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/01/2016 Works as intended. Do have to toggle on and off to get to display colors sometimes

James Bell (ID: 0000002c56522ed8) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/30/2016 Works... doesn't set the background colour of new cards until toggled on and off.

Nick Wagner (ID: 000000734fa89113) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/03/2014 When I first installed the extension, it worked fine. But then after I closed and reopened Chrome, the background colors disappeared. Also, the extension icon in the URL bar disappeared. It is still installed and enabled, but no colors and no icon. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the extension, but no luck.
