Shot-of-Simple-Press-Color-Issue.jpgSimple Press installed successfully within the theme of the site to the extent that the company header was incorporated, along with back ground colors. However the forum itself has a white background (need beige) and the with some letters and headers in pale blue (dark brown would be within the brand of the site). I would like to know how to change these colors or at least make the forum look more in keeping with the site design.

See attached screen shot.

with simple press, we provide 5 themes for you to choose from (see our themes download page)…  so you can pick a theme that matches more closely.. additionally, four of those themes provide a bunch of different overlays which are color variations of the theme (only css-only does not have overlays)… so you can pick a different overlay to try to match the color better…  theme and overlay selection is done on forum – themes – theme list…

If none of those match well enough, then you will need to customize your theme (make a copy) and tweak the css to exactly what you want…

Or lastly, if  you need a custom simple press theme to accomplish the matching you desire and dont want to do the theme tweaks yourself, we offer a custom theme service (see banner in side bar)…
