Change background color on Vantage slider captions

I’ve tried changing background and color attributes and nothing changes on my slider captions. I don’t want the black transparent box around my slider caption. Please help!

.flexslider .slides .flex-caption {
-ms-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
padding: 20px;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
}

    Hi Groundcontrol,

    You can change this with some custom CSS. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    .metaslider .caption-wrap {
        background: rgba( 0, 0, 0, .5);
        color: #fff;
        opacity: 1;
    }
    

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    If that doesn’t help, do you have a public URL where we can take a look at what’s going on? If you need to keep this URL private from other users, just select “Private Reply” on the bottom right of the comment box.
