How To Change Text Color in All Posts Excerpts in Hueman Theme?

  • Hi, I am trying to change the default text for all posts + excerpts on the Hueman theme for my site:
    https://www.blankpagebeatdown.com/

    The default is a very light grey text, which on a white background gets very difficult to read. this includes Author Bio and all text that appears.

    I have already tried the following method in a Child Theme CSS File under Appearance > Editor. But no changes appear.

    .entry { color: black; }
    .entry.excerpt { color: black; }

    I would REALLY appreciate some help with this.

    Thanks!

  • You’ve got some stray PHP in your child theme’s stylesheet:

    <?php if ( is_home() ) {
    ? >
    <meta name="description" content="Movie, TV & Bollywood News, Reviews & Previews" / >
    <?php
}

? >

    which is causing your CSS to be ignored. If you remove that stray code, it should work fine.

    Hi Stephen,

    Thanks for the reply. I’ve removed the above stray PHP. And included the original code for color change in my first post.

    .entry { color: black; }
    .entry.excerpt { color: black; }

    But this still hasn’t changed the excerpts to black. Anything else I’m doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    I checked your site just now (10:52pm Mountain time) and I still see the stray PHP code in your child theme’s stylesheet (at themes/hueman-baby/style.css). Are you using a caching plugin or is your host caching your site?

    Hey Stephen,

    Yes I am. I didn’t realize that was an issue.
    I am using W3 Total Cache.

    How is that preventing the changes we’re doing from taking effect?
