Hi, It would appear that the color of the Text in the forum is inherited from the same settings as the menu bar.
Please see my screenshot of my Q&A post.
Is there a custom CSS that I can use that would set the forum text to a color of it's own, such as dark grey as opposed to lime green (which is the color of my upper menu bar)?
Font color comes from #3 color and yes, the menu bar background color also depends on #3 color. For text color you can use this CSS code. Make sure you've deleted all cache and done Ctrl+F5 on forum front to load custom CSS:
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpforo-post .wpf-right .wpforo-post-content {
color:#333333;
}
Than you Robert, that worked well.
It does strike me as kind of strange though why #3 would control both the menu background and the text inside the posts.
If someone had chosen a pale yellow or cream coloured menu background, then the corresponding text would be virtually invisible.
Perhaps it would be an idea to allow the text to be controlled independently.
Thank you for your assistance though and Happy New Year.
Sure, this is a good idea, we'll take it under consideration.
