TUTRIX I did do that.. it didn't work at first but now all of the sudden it did work so I guess i just had to delete the cache

Make sure you don't have any custom CSS for username colors. The username colors come from the usergroup settings. Edit the usergroup of that user again in wpForo > Usergroups admin page, set the color you want, save it and delete all caches.

you are now using the color code #ad0000 and this is also displayed

use another color than red if you can't see the difference

Dashboard > Forums > Usergroups
Edit usergroup for example (admin) and change the color code
