  The font color editor has changed. I used to be able to create custom font colors (outside the standard ones offered) for my blog post headers by putting a number (3694ce) in the font color editor. Now that option is no longer seems available. Any way to get this option back? Or is there something I’m missing?

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

  Howdy!

  There were some recent changes to the Visual Editor and Image Editor that removed the ability to create custom font colors. You can read more about those changes here:

  However, you can accomplish this through HTML in the Text Editor. To do so, you would just need to use the code shown here:

  More <span style="color: #ff5e5e;">text</span>

  That will change the color of the word “text”. This will need to be inserted within the Text Editor explained here:

  Can you give that a try and let me know if it works for what you’re looking for?
