Change widget title colour

    Hello - I've searched the forums but can't seem to find an solution that works.

    I am working on http://michalciminoblog.wordpress.com using the Morning After theme, with the CSS upgrade and am trying to change the widget title colours.

    I am adding to the CSS sheet instead of replacing the stylesheet with my own as I've heard the latter can cause problems, however, I can't find a solution which addresses the above and works.

    Additionally, I would like to change the 'latest post' title colour, and the link colours within the widgets, and the hyperlink colours across the site.

    If *anyone* can help I would be so so so grateful.

    Thanks

    Well, it only causes problems if you do it wrong. :) It's much easier to use the "Add my CSS" option if you're new at it though!

    I am using the Morning After theme, with the CSS upgrade and am trying to change the widget title colours.

    First, try out the Appearance → Themes → Customize button. Select the "Colors & Backgrounds" option, click the bottom left circle in the color palette, and choose one of the color blocks that appear or click the "pick your own color" link and click inside the large box to pick a new color.

    If you'd like more targeted control, you can add CSS manually. To change the widget title colors for just the sidebar in The Morning After theme, add the following CSS to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor:

    #home_right h3 {
	color: green;
}

    Change the "green" color name to a color code of your choice:

    Additionally, I would like to change the 'latest post' title colour, and the link colours within the widgets, and the hyperlink colours across the site.

    The Customize option I posted before will also change the 'latest post' title color and the top right circle in the color palette controls link color. See this help page for more details:
