The ‘Preferences’ and ‘Login’ pages on 1.23.5 are not affected by any changes I make to Common.css and Vector.css. I didn’t have this problem on 1.22.
Others have tested it and report the same result. Is there any solution to this?

Currently not except for creating a custom skin or adapting the standard skins at server level (be cautious when upgrading in the latter case). This behaviour was introduced with 1.19.20, 1.22.12 and 1.13.5 so solve bugzilla:70627. Bug bugzilla:71621 was opened to address your very issue (you are not alone) but this is currently getting anywhere as you can see. Still searching for solutions here.
