    Hi All,

    Sorry if this is not the exact area for this post.

    I am wanting to change the font colour that my website uses for all of the normal text. I.e. in the wordpress edit areas if i make a new page it uses a greyish color with a grey/white back ground so that makes the text harder to read. Silly design.

    So when I add stuff in now I am manually putting the html tags in to change the font back to black. So I am overriding the html it wants to use, I dont know how healthy this is for the sites html.

    The webpage is www.radarsdirect.com.au

    I can get into the back end and style sheets but I dont know where to start.

    Look forward to hearing your responses,

    Cheers

    When you log into your Wordpress account look for your styles.css file here:

    Appearance
    Editor
    Styles.css or Style.css or Default.css (mainly look for a file that has .css at the end)

    Once there, look for the body tag or a section that deals with the content of your site and look for anything that deals with current color used on your page. You should be able to change it to whatever color you want. Each Wordpress theme has a stylesheet that can be manipulated to make it work the way you want unless there are some restrictions.

    Thank you very much for your response. I did manage to get this sorted out in another thread.

    Do you know a lot about Wordpress sites? I am trying to adjust my shipping cost - but the guy who made it hard-coded it in and I cant find it in the back end....

    Thanks again

    I'm glad you got things situated with your problem. Wordpress is still new to me so I'm not the best person to go to for a lot of its functionality, yet. Good luck with getting the rest of your site situated.
