Hi People.  

I understand that the red color marks the fact that I am an administrator, and it is me who posted a particular post.  

However, this is not changeable in the color styles settings screen.

How do I change it?

Please navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Usergroup admin page, edit the Admin usergroup and change the color:

This solution does not work for me.  Do you know why?

I am trying to change the colors of the usergroups.  I changed them following your instructions above, but the text stays the default color.  I have tried this CSS:

/* Admin */
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-member-title.wpfut.wpfug-1 {color: #000000 !important;}
/* Moderator */
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-member-title.wpfut.wpfug-2 {color: #000000 !important;}
/* Registered */
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-member-title.wpfut.wpfug-3 {color: #000000 !important;}
/* Guest */
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-member-title.wpfut.wpfug-4 {color: #000000 !important;}
/* Customer */
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-member-title.wpfut.wpfug-5 {color: #000000 !important;}

and this CSS:

element.style {color: #000000 !important;}

I cleared the cache and hit Ctrl F5 twice, but the text stays the default color.

I don't have a /wp-content/plugins/wpforo/wpf-includes/wpf-hooks.php file to change the code as was suggested in another thread.  It doesn't seem like it's a permission issue anyway, because I am able to change the color of the chevron by using this CSS:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpfl-1 .wpforo-forum-footer i.topictoggle{color:#263D70!important;}

Any ideas?  Thanks for your help!
