Hello,

I am unable to find how to change the font color for my overall site.

I’m looking to change the font color on my homepage as well as my individual posts.

Pertaining to individual posts: I realize I could go into each post and change the font color there, but I have over 110 entries and that would be extremely time consuming!

Is there a way to handle everything at once?

Thanks!

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,

You can indeed change the fonts from one place, and CSS is not required unless you want to target specific areas to have a different font.

To change, open Dashboard > Customize > Fonts.

Thanks for the response!

I did check there before, and checked again after your suggestion, but couldn’t find anything about font color (that, is, unless, you’re referring to me purchasing Adobe Typekit, which I’d like to avoid if possible.)

Here’s what I see. Any ideas?

no font colors?

Argh, I’m so sorry! Don’t know what made me think you wanted to change fonts, rather than font colors!

Ok, so here’s the code which will change the color of post summaries (on home page) as well as full posts:
```
.entry-summary {
    color: orange;
}

.single .entry-content{
    color: red;
}
```
Adjust as desired. Also, it seems like you manually changed the color of individual posts from the editor, so .single .entry-content may not work on those posts.

No worries!

The “.entry-summary” worked like a charm, but as you warned the “.single .entry-content” code didn’t end up working.

I will double-check the CSS I’ve already input to see if I can tweak it to fix the post font color.

Thanks again!

Hi, if you set a color within the editor, that is an the HTML level and we cannot override it with CSS because that becomes an HTML element level declaration and nothing can override that.
