Styling for Widgets

I really like this theme and am getting on well with it, but I am finding some small issues that could be easier. I hope you appreciate the feedback.

The text styling for the widgets headers and text appears to be the same as for the posts/pages. I want the widget text to be white and the past page text to be grey. Also how can I put a tint over the widgets background so that when there is a full background image it would make it easier to read the text. I do not want to go to a boxed layout.

One other thing in Firefox on Mac OSX with a Video post from You Tube it does not play the video, it is fine in Safari

Hey,

thanks for the feedback we always take this serious and try to improve whenever we can!

To you widget background question: This is nothing we support out of the box but if you give me the adress of your site I can give you custom code to make the necessary tweaks to achieve that!

Hey,

Check your site now. You can change the values in your customizer > custom > CSS if you want to increase the opacity just increase the last value of the rgba. For example .x-sidebar ul {background: rgba(0,0,0,.5) } the .5 to .7

.masthead {background: rgba(0,0,0,.5) }

.x-sidebar ul {background: rgba(0,0,0,.5) }

.x-colophon.bottom {background: rgba(0,0,0,.5) }

.x-colophon.top ul {background: rgba(0,0,0,.5) }
