Hi, I can’t seem to figure out why my body text won’t appear as the color I tell it to.

I want most of the text to be a grey or black– honestly, the default color is totally fine! But for some reason, my text is showing up as a red or sometimes a white or green. The only green text I want are a few highlighted pieces of information (like phone number) and I’ve made sure to enclose it with the typical html coding for color (font color= etc. etc.)

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong to make the rest of the copy not show the proper color. Help?!

Hi there,

Please provide us with URL and login credentials in private replay.
Also it would be great if you provide us with mockup or screen shot of desired layout.

Thanks.

Hi There,

I have fixed the issue.

First the problem, is that you did not close the font html in your slider for the word “lifestyle” in your slider.

Lastly, you did not close the font html in your Topbar content in your customizer > Custom > CSS.

Hope it helps.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks.

Hi,

I was not talking about the slider, rather the entire body text for the site. It isn’t showing the color I set it to using the Customizer settings.

Hello There,

Thanks for updating in! After further investigation, I found out that you added a custom css in the visual composer which is why the customizer settings were being overwritten. You can added this:

.content {
    color: #27373c;
    font-family: Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif;;
}

And you have inserted it here: http://prntscr.com/d9ui47

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Yes, I know that code is there- as explained, it is a temporary fix so the text doesn’t show up as red/green/white. HOWEVER, I would like the text to be modifiable in the global CSS settings in the Customizer. For some reason, if you try to set the body text color there, or even return to the default, it doesn’t seem to work right.

Just tried it again and I think it’s working now. Thank you for your help and your quick responses! I’ll write back if it reverts back (fingers crossed it doesn’t!)
