How to change color of the font

Resolved 5 replies themetheme-pitch

Hello! I use custom css in order to change the font on my pages in the Pitch theme:

body {
background: #f4f4f4;
font-family: “Helvetica Neue”, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size: 18px;
color: yellow;
}

The result is: size really have changed, but color still stays gray, as in original theme. What is the reason? How can I change the color?

    Hi Stas

    Thanks for running Pitch.

    Pitch unfortunately declares color further down the line which is why this isn’t working. Which text elements are you looking to change the color of? It’s quite a job if you need to change all text.

    The premium version of our Vantage theme has text color controls in the Customizer, it might be worth a look:

    I want to use Pitch and to change color of the text on the page. It is grey text below main menu on my site krainikovsky.ru Which property I need to override in the style.css ?

    Give this a try under Appearance > Custom CSS or in your own Custom CSS module:

    .post-container * { color: #eaeaea !important; }

    Change my color to your preferred color. Let me know how that goes.

    Thanks, it works. To what areas of site text does .post-container tag influence? To all text on all pages?

    Glad that helped. It’s basically the main content area. The asterisk means apply this to everything in the .post-container div.
