Text colors gone wild

  The color of my links text has suddenly gone from matching my navy blue sidebars to basic black, and the color of the text in my footer has suddenly gone from white to bronze. I’ve tried to restore but am stuck. Can you offer me CSS codes to permanently return them to their previous colors?

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

  Hi there –

  For the text widget fonts try:

  li#text-7.widget.widget_text {
  	color: #ffffff;
  }
  
  li#text-4.widget.widget_text {
  	color: #ffffff;
  }

  For the links, try:

  #wrapper .sticky .entry-content, #wrapper .entry-meta, #wrapper .entry-links, #wrapper .widget, #wrapper .entry-meta a, #wrapper .entry-links a, #wrapper .widget a, .entry-meta a, .page-link a:link, .page-link a:visited {
    color: #002449;
  }

  Let me know how that works.

  Thank you very much. Those worked very well, except I just noticed that four of my drop down menus are pitch black unless and until scrolled over with the cursor.

  What the heck is going on? Site integrity degradation, or some kind of bug, or what?

  Hi there –

  We’ve made some changes to the Custom Colors feature lately, and I think that’s caused darker custom colors on Pilcrow to not display very well (it’s no longer adjusting the font color, for one thing, to make it readable when the background color is darker). I’ve opened a bug report for this problem, and I’ll keep you updated. In the meantime, you can fix the submenus with this CSS:

  .sub-menu a {
  	color: #ffffff !important; 
  	background: #002449 !important;
  }
