Problem with changing Font colour
-
I switched themes a few months ago. I like my new theme, except for the font colour, which is a default grey. I’ve changed the font to black on many old posts, simply by selecting the text and changing it manually. This usually works, but sometimes it won’t change all the text without leaving some of it grey or moving a block of text inside the paragraph. The opening paragraph in this post is stuck on black and grey for some reason, and the grey text skips elsewhere in the post if I try and select it all and turn it black: http://drnorth.wordpress.com/2008/09/23/back-to-bazin-part-1-the-ontology-of-the-photographic-image/
Is this a glitch, or am I doing something wrong? And is there a way to change my theme preferences so that all posts are written in black text?

Not sure it this will help but I had the same problem with my text and the only solution I could find was to manually go into the HTML and change the font color # to the same number throughout the post. If I remember right the # for black is 0000 but don’t hold me to that.

Yes we can manually change the font color and size using the HTML editor. See here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/font-size-color/ -
@puppetmister: I understand you’re using the color button of the post editor. That won’t do, because it’s designed for highlighting isolated words or phrases. You should switch the editor to HTML, delete all these:
<span style="color:#000000;">
and these
</span>
then add this at the beginning of the post:
<div style="color:#000;">
and this at the end:
</div> -
Oh, I’m not very good with HTML, but I guess I need the practice. Thankyou all so much for your helpful replies. I will take note and give it a try in my next post. So, I’m right in thinking, as per Panaghiotisadam’s suggestion, that I can just designate the font colour for the entire post instead of for each paragraph? That will help a lot.
