Problem with Textcolor in Costa Nature-Theme

Post by Meister_Li »

Hi! I've used the Costa Nature-Theme in my blogger and changes many colors in it now... It's almost inverted. The Problem I have: I can't change (or well, don't find where) the color of the eneries in the Blog. At the moment, they're black, and the background is in a very dark green, making it really hard to read the text. Does anyone know in wich file the Color is defined?

Looking at Costa's stylesheet I don't think the text color is explicitly defined, which leaves the browser free to select whichever color is the default text color for the browser. Most use black or some very dark grey.

To solve the problem for you, add a color style to either the body in the stylesheet, or if this is too much, then add the color to .serendipity_entry {], which is a holding class for everything within the entry including the body, extended, footer, comments and comment form.

Hope that helps,

Carl

sorry i did a typo, it should have been .serendipity_entry {} but is that didn't work, then try shift-f5 to refresh your browser screen and see if that does the job

Actually, put it there, didn't work, here is the line:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry {
	color: #ffc937;
  font-size: 10pt;
	clear: both;
	overflow: auto;
	display: block;
	width: 100%;
}
