Hi, I want change the colors css. In the wpforo settings page is written, that I have to go to a folder and upload my colors.css and replace it. but in the folder, which is described ../../wp-content/plugins/wpforo/themes/2026/HERE is no file called colors.css but in the same folder is a "styles.css" file. 

 

Now my question if I want to change the "forum-title" class, which file I have to edit?

Hi erhoo,

Great question! Based on the wpForo documentation and settings, here's what you need to know: the colors.css file mentioned in the setup instructions is typically not meant to be manually edited or uploaded as a replacement file. Instead, wpForo provides a built-in method for customizing colors through the admin dashboard, which is the recommended approach.

To change the "forum-title" class and other styling elements, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Dashboard > wpForo > Settings > Colors & Styles
  2. Use the 8 color options provided in the interface to make basic color changes to your forum elements
  3. For more advanced customization (like targeting specific classes such as "forum-title"), scroll down to the Custom CSS Code Field
  4. In the Custom CSS field, add your custom CSS rule. For example, to change the forum-title class, you would add something like:
    .forum-title {
        color: #your-color-code;
        /* other properties */
    }
  5. Save your changes

The reason you see styles.css in the folder but not colors.css is that wpForo manages color customization through the admin settings rather than direct file replacement. This approach ensures your customizations are preserved during plugin updates and are easier to manage. If you need to refer to the official documentation on style customization, wpForo has detailed guides available on their documentation site.

Does this help clarify things? Are you looking to customize just the forum title color, or do you have other elements you'd like to adjust as well?
