Changing the default colors (Headers, titles, background colors)

What theme are you using? Those are set by whatever theme you’re using usually.

Check for options somewhere. Often times they’re in Appearance > Customizer > Style

Hello I’m using Bread and Cake. I have not been able to locate it in style or theme php

Did you go where I advised you above?

Yes, the following code is what I found, and change it to #FFFFFF but nothing changed

body#tinymce.wp-editor {
font-family: ‘Roboto’,Arial;
margin: 10px;
}

body#tinymce.wp-editor a {
color:#FFFFFF; /*#5E5340;*/

So that’s not what I’m referring to. Can you take a screenshot of the options inside your Customizer?

Then use something like Imgur to post it here.

Thanks for you help!!!!

Thanks for those. Please don’t edit those files unless you are really comfortable doing so.

This is not where I stated you go. Let me try this again.

Appearance > Customize > Styles

Does your theme have anything there? Take screenshots of that area.

I located the following and was able to change the gray to red. I did this before I read you advice not to do so..

/*THE FOLLOWING IS THE LOCATION TO CHANGE THE COLOR FOR THE TEXT */
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
-ms-word-wrap: break-word;
word-wrap: break-word;
font: 15px/22px ‘Roboto’;
color: #FF0000;/*#7c7b7b;*/
background-color:#f1f1f1;

Also This theme only has the following and under colors the colors are totally different than what appears.

That’s the spot. Good. You should never have to touch the theme’s style sheets ever. You can write styles inside the Additional CSS tab and what appears to be Simple Custom CSS.

Also see what they have inside the WooCommerce tab there as well.

Additionally, without seeing a URL you’ll have to find the selector you want to make a change to and override the css style on it.

.add_to_cart_button{
  background:blue !important;
  color:#fff !important; 
}

Just as an example

OOPs what should I do now that I changed the theme’s style sheet? I commented what I changed so I can remove it.

Also thanks

You got it. Remove any css you wrote there and add it to additional css.

You should only edit files in a child theme and only thru FTP so if you make a mistake and the site crashes you can revert back and fix your mistake.

You wouldn’t be able to where you did. Yours be locked out of your site.

The following are the changes…black was previously brown

Thank you very much for ALL your help!!!! I removed all the code from the child theme backed up the website and added all the .css edited in the child theme to the additional .css location under the customizer

I did not make any additional changes just copied and pasted.

So are you all set now?
