Content Management Pages Suddenly Showing Different Font and Colors Without Any Version Update

BalaEswariB4530 — Mon, 26 May 2025 14:49:34 GMT

Hi Community,

We are experiencing a sudden change in the look and feel of our Content Management (CMS) pages in ServiceNow.

Until recently, our CMS pages used to have a clean, black font style with smaller font sizes and a standard layout. However, without making any changes to our theme, CSS, portal configuration, or applying any version upgrades, we are now seeing:

Blue-colored font (especially in the side navigation and headers)
Larger font sizes
Changed spacing and UI styling

📷 I've attached screenshots showing the previous (expected) look vs the current (unexpected) UI styling:

[Previous look] – black text with standard font sizes
[Current look] – blue text with larger fonts and new styles

To confirm:

No changes were made to CMS Themes, CSS Includes, or the Portal record
No version upgrade or patching was done recently
The issue appears across multiple user systems and browsers

Client ask to revert to older version . please help me.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Hi @BalaEswariB4530,

I never used CMS before but looks like some CSS issue to me.

Can you check if the issue is across all instances (production, sub-production).

If so, maybe there is a CSS library or something that is no longer supported by the browser?

Cheers

Hi @James Chun ,

We noticed that the changes in the CMS UI (font color, size, and layout) were present in the Dev and CI instances since last month, but the same changes have now appeared in Production this month — even though no changes or updates were moved between the environments.
