Hi. I searched the forum but didn't find an answer to my question, so here goes:

 

I need to change the font color for the individual user names on posts. It's showing up as very pale gray, which appears to be inherited from my WP theme's css; however, changing font colors in the theme's css doesn't affect the user names so I assume I'm mistaken about the inheritance. The other fonts in the forum are fine, it's only the user names.

 

The user names are unreadable; people in my forum are calling each other by location names, heh. I can't find any css files in the plugin editor list for Simple Press. Where do I change the font color for the user names that appear on the left side next to the user's post?

 

Sorry to bother — I've tried it on my own with no luck. Perhaps an update (I'm getting ready to install the latest right now) could include simple ways to manipulate the fonts for various sections of the forum. Just a thought.

 

Thanks.

Sheta…  would you consider posting a link to your forum? I'd be willing to attempt to write you a css rule to override the one that's giving you grief.  The possibilities are endless so I can't really offer a sample to try without seeing what you have to work with :)

Google is mah friend…  I found you.

 

Try adding this rule to your WordPress theme style.css at the bottom.  You were right, it was being cancelled.

.sfusername p strong {
color:#000000;
}
Change the color from black to your own flavor.  Good luck :)

Glad it worked for ya first try.  Styling can cause hair loss sometimes.  (I made a funny!)  Also I may need to put some coffee on.  I could of just looked at your profile for your site url *headslap* Now I feel like some sort of freaky stalker.

 

I saw your next question.  Imma gonna have to sit that one out.  Good luck :)
