  Hello,

  I am setting up a new site and the edit link on the about page doesn’t do anything. I would like to get my customized info up asap so I tried the link on both Foxfire and Safari and it wasn’t working.

  Also is there a way to customize the text colors? I found a background color I love but the default text color is not ideal. Let me guess, I need to pay $99 for the premium to edit text color but not the background? Hope not.

  Thanks,

  Megan

  Howdy Megan!

  That Edit link should just lead you to the page editor in /wp-admin/. If you click this direct link does it open up?

  If not, could you please take a screenshot of what you see? Also please check that your Third Party cookies are enabled for both those browsers:

  You change the text color for the body of each page and post using the Text Color tool:

  However, this does not adjust the Post Title or Page Title colors.

  You can also adjust the Site Title color without Custom Design:
