font colour, modularity lite

  • hi guys – wondering if someone could take a look at my site – see the text appearing in blue (tags, post categories etc.)

    How can I change the colour of these? I have type kit installed and figured out how to change post titles but can’t figure this out. I have the custom CSS upgrade but have never used it or CSS – that stuff terrifies me so i’d need a step by step if changing involves this tool.

    thanks for any help in advance!

  • You need to change it in two places. Add the following to your CSS and edit the hex color codes as desired.

    a {
    color: #428CE7;
    }
    
    #sidebar .widget_categories ul li a, #footer .widget_categories ul li a, #sidebar .widget_twitter ul li a, #footer .widget_twitter ul li a {
    color: #428CE7;
    }
  • yes, its mostly worked! I still have a ‘more from me’ in one of the widgets appearing blue though – any idea for thaT?

    May I also ask – see the back lozenges around my ‘tag’ boxes – how would I edit the colour for those, also the grey background – want to change to white as per my overall theme background?

    sorry for sneaking those in. amazed at your rapid responses guys!

  • The flickr widget has its own styling and I didn’t notice that the link at the bottom didn’t change.

    #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:hover, #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:link, #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:active, #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:visited {
    color: #3993FF;
    }

    On the background for the tags this should do it, and for the grey text color it’s in the .quiet selector.

    .postmetadata {
        background: #000000;
    }
    
    .quiet {
    color: #666666;
    }

    I’m a little confused on the “grey background” you mention wanting to change to white. The only grey background I see is for the overall container.
