I am having this issue too. I noticed in my site logs that /css/-style.css could not be found. That implies that the color variable from theme_settings.php is not getting to template.php in order to process which color has been picked in the the UI. I did notice a typo in theme_settings.php but that did not seem to make a difference. ['them_color_config'] Is it supposed to be ['theme_color_config']?

I am submitting a patch that fixes the colors not working. I tested this and it seems fine now. However this does not address the fact that the project page says:

default, grey and green

... when if fact it's blue, green and red. Even still the red did not seem "red" to me it was really more orange. There was a lot of cruft in html.tpl.php that I took out and once I did, this worked. The code there almost seemed non drupal like so perhaps that was a carry over from another platform or something. I also got rid of some unneeded hierarchy of field groups in the UI for choosing the color, it just seemed unnecessary, i.e you had to expand a few just to simply get to the color select list.

Please do not test this on a production site (test on a local dev or whatever) and make a backup of your original theme!

@Taxoman - I just contacted one of the maintainers, hopefully they will respond. Just looking back at other issues here, it looks like this theme could use some TLC.

Critical, because without this patch the (7.x-2.1) version completely mess up the site, and gives random colors...

I just contacted the maintainers to see what the status is here, I think they have gone missing but we shall see. I offered to pick up maintainer-ship of this theme, It needs some TLC. The last commit was well over a year ago.

Shouldn't these issues be brought to symphonythemes itself? They have their own issuequeue..
Just trying to help.

Hi @Summit. If a developer has a project here on drupal.org, along with that comes a certain set of responsibilities regardless of what they may have on their own sites. That's what this issue queue is meant for. If you read:

#1881214: ST Alphorn appears to be unsupported

... you will see that protocol is being followed according to:

Dealing with unsupported (abandoned) projects

Thanks.
