H1 and H2 formatting from themes are not working. Tested on Things 2 and Obuntu theme in multiple vaults and sandbox vaults. The issue was duplicated on a separate MacBook and on an iPhone. Obsidian version: 1.10.6 on a Mac Studio M2 Ultra Sequoia. No snippets or custom .css files. No other add-on is installed.
Please help resolve this. Thank you.

The Things theme sets the h1 and h2 colors to the var(--text-normal) color (the same as regular text):
You can change this in the Things section of the Style Settings plugin or use a CSS snippet like this to change them:
body {
--h1-color: salmon;
--h2-color: var(--purple);
}
I recommend having a look at this topic for a guide on using the dev inspector to find out what the default theme or community themes are doing:
Obsidian CSS Inspector Workflow
This was originally called “Obsidian CSS Quick Guide” but it ended up being more focused on the inspector. As a retrospective change to help people use this as a resource, it has been renamed. – FireIsGood
Hi friends! CSS in Obsidian can be confusing to get into, so this is a guide to get you started with information on the tools, methods, and some background knowledge!
Let’s get started by looking at how you can look behind the curtain of Obsidian’s visuals.
