Changing font colour underneath excerpt post

By Milan Bluue, 9 years ago. Last reply by Magus, 9 years ago.

Hi – I want to change the font colour underneath the blog posts feature picture. I couldn’t find any place to change them. Right now they are to dark and can’t be read.
Thanks a lot in advanced!

    Hi Milan Bluue

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

    .vantage-grid-loop article h3 a {
    color: #fff !important;
}

    You can change the colour code to whichever colour you want. For colour codes see here

    Hey Mangus! Thanks a lot that worked for the text preview of the blog post but the heading of the blog post remains white. Any idea how I can change that too? Have a look here so you can see.

    Hi Milan

    I have just had a look and the heading of the blog post on the linked page is currently set to ‘#c9c9c9’ and the text preview is set to ‘#777777’. Is it this that you want changing or is it the text on the full blog posts?

    Yes how do I change the #777777 :)?!
    Also while we are ad it – how do I change the text above the blog posts in this link also?

    http://bluuespace.com/category/freediving/

    The text is very small and can barely be seen “Reports from our BluueSpace members about their freediving experiences.”

    And another one – is it possible to change the color of the frame of the blog posts? Right now they are black.

    Hi guys, I’m online for a bit, hope you don’t mind me jumping in.

    The first paragraph here: http://bluuespace.com/category/freediving/. That should respond to the color you have selected at:

    Appearance > Customize > Theme Design > Fonts > Content Color.

    Font size can be set from:

    Appearance > Customize > Theme Design > Fonts > Content Size.

    And another one – is it possible to change the color of the frame of the blog posts? Right now they are black.

    Are you looking to change the page background color for posts only? Please can you confirm a link to check out and also confirm the background area you’re referring to. Thanks.

    Hey Andrew,

    If you visit http://bluuespace.com/blog/ you will see several blog posts. Each post is displayed with a short text and a picture. Now around that picture is a very small white frame. I am interested in changing the color of that frame.

    When you visit this URL http://bluuespace.com/category/freediving/ you will see 4 posts and above the 4 posts is a text in a very dark color. I couldn’t change that colour with the two suggestions you made above. Any other way to change it? It is the category description text I think.

    Thanks and best – Milan

    Hi Milan

    The dark text can be changed with this css

    .taxonomy-description {
    color: #fff;
}

    The border around the images can be changed by adding this

    .vantage-grid-loop article .grid-thumbnail {
 background-color: #fff;
}

    In both cases please replace with the colour or your choice.

    Let us know how you get on
