Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

If instead of using WBS you can live with the use of Flags then follow the links and download the PDF and MS Project file, you should be able to figure it out. Maybe even better this will give you a clue.

For color coded bars:

Download revised files for color coded Bars and Relationship Lines, remember also shapes can be customized.

By trial and error you should get to where you want or close, within the limit as described by Alexandre "the relationship lines have the color or the predecessor bar".
