Trying to use “Layout \> Custom Scripts \> Custom Script for Logged In Users” on the admin page while using rocketchat. However, even if I enter the JavaScript code, I have to refresh the page for it to work.  
For example  
if(window.location.pathname == ‘/account/profile’){ alert(“Welcome”)  
} code, it doesn’t work when you move to the page. It works only when I refresh the page. How to solve this problem?

Hi!

I believe this working as expected. That script will only run after the first log in, not on all page changes.

For that reason, the code I entered doesn’t seem to work.  
For example “document.querySelectorAll(”.rcx-css-1twyb0g").forEach(a =\> {  
a.onclick = function(){  
a.style.color = “red”;  
};  
});"  
If I want this code to work, is there a way to get it to work without using the “Custom Script for Logged In Users” menu?
