Post and Page text color

Support
#1

Hello!

I’ve set the text color in Theme Options > Typography > body font color to gray rgb(153,153,153). This works fine for truncated pages but once you click “read more”, the text is displayed in black. I only want the text in the body of posts and pages to be gray, not the heading or titles. I’ve checked the Knowledge Base but there are no results for my specific requirement. Can this be set globally, or with CSS? If CSS, the code please.

TIA

Hi Marshall,

Thanks for writing in!

You do not need to add any custom css. For your heading title colors, please set it in X > Theme Options > Typography > Headings.

Please let us know if this works out for you.

Hello,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

No, I’ve previously set the body font color to grey already. But, the body font on the full post remains black (see example).

TIA

Hi Marshall,

I have inspected your posts and it turns out that you have used Pro Editor in creating the posts. In the posts, you used a text element to display your post contents. Please be aware that text elements has its own default styling. Please edit each of your posts and change the text color in your text element settings.

Hope this helps. Please let us know how it goes.

Thanks.

I have been doing that but was hoping for a global solution. Can I add that to a template then?

Also, should I be using the Pro Editor? I like the X better but, if I recall, Pro gives me more fine tuning options.

TIA

Hello Marshall,

If you use a custom css to change the text color of the single posts, it defeats your purpose of using the Pro Editor in creating your posts. Please understand that the use of Pro Editor or Cornerstone in creating a page or a post is to give you more control over the layout and the elements you want to have in a post or a page.

Well anyway, if you want to proceed with a global custom css, you can use this:

.single-post .x-section .x-text {
    color: rgb(153,153,153);
}

Hope this helps.
