    Since version 1.0.35 the sidebar text for e.g. the Archive widget is “invisible”. From the version diff I see the following added to style.css:

    .gridsby-home-widget-area a, .widget-area ul a { color: #ffffff; }

    So why is the text colour set to white? I didn’t see another place where the text colour is set.

    Kees de Bruin,

    The sidebar links should not be white. The color was declared only for the home page widget, as it displays a full width background image.

    If your sidebar links are white, please provide a link so I can compare with the current version.

    Thanks!

    Just looked at the CSS again and if you want it for the home page widget only, I think you need to use .gridsby-home-widget-area in both rules, as in:

    .gridsby-home-widget-area a, .gridsby-home-widget-area ul a { color: #ffffff; }

    As I read it from the original code, the first rule applies to the home page widget, the second rule to the general widget areas.

    This has also been fixed and included in the next update of Gridsby.

    Thanks!

    Hello!

    I just installed Gridsby, and my widget text is white as well. After a quick look at the CSS files I couldn’t find the .gridsby-home-widget-area line.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks!

    The issue is already solved by Modern Themes (authors of Gridsby) and I can attest to that as I’m running the latest version of the theme.

    And the .gridsby-home-widget-area line is in style.css.

    Hello!

    Thanks for responding, but your response was not terribly helpful, as it denied the problem I am experiencing exists, even though there is something going wrong.

    I indeed found the main stylesheet eventually (which was oddly not named “style.css”, but something else). The text colour was set to #ffffff, so I changed it. That still did not help.

    Finally I figured out that the problem is with another plugin I am using in my widget section, TinyMCE. Apparently it’s a known problem that has no reliable fix at this point.

    All best,

    Rebecca
