no problem, I'll just use the textarea you provide then!

The CSS files are not included in theme overwriting method. I'm really sorry but there is no way to overwrite colors.css. The only way is using colors settings options in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles admin page.

I'd like to override the colors.css file to make changes more quickly.

I know the colors can be managed from the forum settings, but editing a css file on the fly in my favorite editor is just much more practical for me.
I tried using the "themes override" tutorial you provide, by creating a /wpforo/colors.css file in my wordpress theme folder, but it doesn't work for me.

At this point, I know I can just paste my css in the textarea you provide in the forum settings, but it's slower because I have to edit the css in my local editor, than copy/paste there and save.

So, is there a way I can override the color.css file ?

Thank you
