I’m not super familiar with css but have been able to go in to editor to change font size color to header, footer, side bar menu etc with sucess.
Right now the main content text of my site is in gray- I want it in black.
I went into the css to change the font size of the main content text with success- but when I make changes to the color # nothing happens.
Please help!

Much thanks, Amanda

    Hi Amanda

    Thanks for running Influence.

    Changes made via Appearance > Editor will be lost if you ever update Influence, all theme files are overwritten during theme updates.

    Try the following in your Custom CSS plugin to change the content color:

    /* Entry Content */
    
    article.entry .entry-content {
    color: #716f6c;
    }
    

    Edit as required.

    Hi Andrew,
    Thanks for your response.

    I copied & pasted your suggestion exactly is in my custom css page, updated & it had no luck changing my text.

    Should I be including:/* Entry Content */

    article.entry .entry-content {
    color: #716f6c;
    }

    or just: article.entry .entry-content {
    color: #716f6c;
    }

    I tried both- but I’m clearly missing something. Thanks again. Amanda
