Changing Font colour for themes -Help!

[Firestorm_westy]

Hi all,

Love the forum - Learning loads.

I set-up my Smugmug page yesterday (westy.smugmug.com) - Pleased so far...

BUT, I seem to have done something that has changed the font colour universally to white. This is fine for 90% of the site, but I use the 'Hitched' theme for my Wedding albums, and the text on those is also white.

I am sure it wasn't before - Is it possible to change the font colour for a certain page / Theme?

Any help greatfully received!

Paul

It's very difficult to help without a link to your site - including the page(s) you want to change.

Thanks for looking Denise - This is one of the pages... http://westy.smugmug.com/Weddings

I know I can select a different logo for different galleries, but how can I change the text on the page for white (which can't be seen) to black?

Thanks,

Paul

This will change the text on that page to black:

.category_Weddings .albumTitle .nav,
.category_Weddings .description,
.category_Weddings .updated,
.category_Weddings #footer .nav {
color: black !important;
}

Brilliant - Thanks...

Can I do the same for Albums with that catergory with similar code?

I think it was more than just you. I also use "hitched" and can't see my titles because the font went white.

You can, but before you go there I'd recommend thinking through the look you want on your site. I find it quite jarring to jump from a black background to a white background to a textured background. Are you going to keep the different backgrounds or do you think you might change to use a constant background so you can define the colors once?

If you decide you really do want a black background on most of your site and a white/patterned background for the wedding galleries, then yes, the text on those light background pages can definitely be changed to black.

You can easily see the names of the different elements on the page if you use the Firefox Web Developer Extension. If you don't have that installed, there is a tutorial and a link to the tool at http://dgrin.smugmug.com/gallery/1354921.
