can't see input text

Hey Curtis,

Thanks for swinging by the forums! In taking a look at the sign up form on your site, I’m seeing that the input text is currently black, with the background of the field white, so the text does appear visible. It’s possible that you may have already resolved this issue, but I’ll go ahead and outline the steps to do so, in case you’d like to make further changes!

Changing that input text color would require adding a bit of CSS code to your stylesheet. You can access your WordPress theme’s stylesheet by going to the WordPress admin area, then going to Appearance > Editor. Then, select the main stylesheet (this is generally called style.css).

From there, add this line of code to the end of your stylesheet:

#mc_signup_form .mc_input{
     color: black;
}

This targets the input fields in the sign up form specifically. If you have any questions, just let us know!

hi Tk,
I’m having a similar problem, however your solution didn’t work for me. My theme won’t accept plugins, so I entered the code onto the page:

You’ll see I changed the background color, but I can’t manage to change the input text from white. I’d love to change it to black.

Is there code I can add directly to the page? I tried the code you supplied, but changed it to:

#mc_embed_signup_input{
color: black;
}

….but that didn’t work.

I hope you can help!
Thanks!

Hello!

Thanks for posting. In taking a look at the site’s form now, I can see that it’s displaying as black text, so it looks like you may have already figured this solution out!

Just for reference, here’s the solution to the problem (credit to your css! ?? )

#mc_embed_signup input {
color: black;
}

Let us know if you have anymore questions.

Thanks again!
