    i am using the restauranteur theme and have changed the widget background to black, i then changed the text color to white in my stylesheet. doing this changed all content text on all pages to white as well (over white backgrounds), even the text in my (plug-in)contact form1 is now white over a white background.

    is there a special css or html command to change ONLY my widget simple text color??

    thanks so much!!

  • You need CSS that says only text in the sidebar should be white. This should do it for paragraphs and bullet lists in the sidebar…

    #sidebar .widget li a, #sidebar-home .widget li a, #sidebar .widget p, #sidebar-home .widget p  {
color: white;
}

    thank you for your quick response.
    while i understand css, i am not super proficient!
    i found the side bar area within my style sheet but cannot seem to correctly insert the correct command in its exact and proper place. when i try, all goes awry!

    thank you again
