en Hi, I really liked this extension, but its behaviour has changed over the last couple of days. Previously if I put a colon after a word at the beginning of an event title, it would appear highlighted in the label colour. This was extremely useful for making particular events visible and distinguishable. But now this facility is gone, can we get it back? Win 11 PC Edit: it's back! I hope it stays, the alternative of coloured text with a dot is hopeless.. added another star

I don't get it. I saw nothing to add custom colors.... and the details literally don't say how to use this. There is NO WHERE to add new or custom colors.

it has changed the name to the color instead of just a colored dot (THANK YOU!) however, I cannot find any additional colors. What am I doing wrong? No + sign or new colors on list thanks!

I've added the extension but when I go into adding an event, I don't see additional colors. I restarted Chrome but that did not help either. How can I add colors?

This is great; however, I accidentally deleted the extension and when I added it back again it didn't work. Now I don't get the "+" to add new colours. Anyone else experience this / how do I fix this?
