Hello kind people reading this post! I'm working on my own theme and it seems that the org-ellipses faces are the wrong colour. I have explicitly set the face in the theme to a purple but it shows up as this ochre gold.
​
Any one have any idea why this is happening?
EDIT: FIXED! Turns out it was org ellipsis and not ellipses. Go figure.

Would recommend posting the bits of code where you set the colors

Place your cursor on one of the ellipses and run `M-x describe-face`. The first option (should) be the face under the cursor.

describe-face is a very finicky function imo. In this case putting point under the ellipsis and executing describe-face returns \`default\`, which is clearly wrong.
Running \`M-x list-faces-display\` shows org-ellipses to be this gold color, so I'm pretty sure it's the right face.
Thanks for the reply!

its wrapped with autothemer so the syntax doesn't follow the regular set-face-attribute syntax, but
​
`(org-ellipses (:foreground purple))`

I did a bit of digging but I too couldn't figure out what's going on here

Try org-ellipsis instead of org-ellipses.

That was it! I guess the singular makes more sense since it is one ellipsis.
