Normally I have no problem overriding CSS codes, usually in the Customizer on the front end. I've been trying to modify the .wpforo-last-post-author item so that it is not red, and the a.wpf-new-button so that it is not orange. Using the inspector I find these can be edited in the inspector but when I copy-paste into the customizer, they are not working. I do not see these options available in the back end Forum colors and styles panel. 

I even downloaded a colors.css file to see if it was there, but is not. Is this located elsewhere in the large amount of settings panels?

Hi,

The color of usernames can be changed using the Usergroup Color option. Simply edit the usergroup, and you’ll find this setting there.

Regarding the new identifier, you can change it using the following CSS code:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap a.wpf-new-button, #wpforo #wpforo-wrap span.wpf-new-button{               
       background-color: #b66e6e;
       color:  #6e406e !important; 
}

Okay, thank you. But for some reason, that isn't working, I've changed the admin color to a green, but those usergroups are still showing up as red. I've cleared the site caches, browser caches but they're still coming up as red.

Actually, it seems to have fixed itself. Must be the forum caches didn't take til now. All set.
