  Hello, I’ve already tried the color section of Customize and I’m still unable to get rid of all the grey text sections of my site.

  All of the headings of my widgets as well as the categories and the recent articles are colored light grey and I would like to make them black.

  Thanks!

  Hi there, I see you have added some custom CSS and changed the color on many of your site text elements. The following will change the color of archive/category/tag page titles.

  body.page .type-page .entry-title, .not-found .entry-title, .page-title {
     color: #000000;
  }

  Let us know if there are any other questions we can help you with.

  Thank you very much! It worked perfectly for the Archive pages :D

  However, I still get those light grey colors on the child pages of the main menu, the “Leave a Reply” section, the captions of the images, and the tibidts underneath each post page and thumbnail that showcases the hour, author and date.

  Hi, this will catch the navigation submenu items and take them the same blue you are using for the top level menu items.

  .main-navigation li li a {
      color: #2C69B8;
  }

  The following takes the connector text (by, etc.) black and takes the date/author/categories/tags the same link blue you are using. If you want those black, just change the color code in the second rule to #000000.

  .entry-meta {
      color: #000000;
  }
  .single .entry-meta a, body.page .type-page .entry-meta a {
      color: #2C69B8;
  }

  And More:

  Image captions and comment area:

  .comments-title, #comments #reply-title, #respond #comment-form-comment textarea, #comment-form-share-text-padder textarea, .comment-meta a.comment-date  {
  color: #000000;
  }

  Thank you very much, it worked perfectly!!!

  The only light grey areas I still have trouble with is:

  a) The image captions. I tried re-uploading the images but the captions underneath still show up as grey :(
  b) The “date/comments/edit” below the thumbnail of the posts as seen in the home page and the category sections.

  Thank you very much for all of your help :D

  a) Add this:

  .wp-caption .wp-caption-text, .tiled-gallery-caption {
  color: #000000;
  }

  b) You’ve added this:

  .entry-meta {
  color: #000000;
  }

  Turn the first line to:
  .entry-meta a {
