Color Questions

Hi, my website is http://www.shortshift.co for reference.

My main menu is black with white text but the drop down arrows are still black and cannot be seen. How to I change the color of these?

Also, most meta data is a super light grey color that is difficult to read. For instance:

1. Under posts that show the date and number of views
2. The website link in the Author Box.
3. Breadcrumbs.

If you could show me the fix for these color issues I will be very grateful! Thanks!

Hi,

You can change the menu icons color from black to white from theme panel, like this: http://screencast.com/t/Amz5Afuq3rv

For the date and number of views you have the .meta-info, .entry-comments-views, classes: http://screencast.com/t/luHzJgDh3br

For the author URL you have the .td_top_authors .td-authors-url a classes: http://screencast.com/t/S0xcqsq2

For the breadcrumbs, this: http://screencast.com/t/DL32FFIgX

.meta-info, .entry-comments-views, .entry-crumbs, .entry-crumbs a, .td_top_authors .td-authors-url a  {
color: red;
}

Thanks

Hello, I got some of the other items I wanted color changed working via CSS but I am having problems with just the ones in these pictures

The date, reply, and logged in as – are all fields I want to change to black so they show up better.

The author area where it shows 7 posts and 1 comment, I want to make those boxes a hex color.

Thanks for your time.

Hi,
Please try the following css: http://screencast.com/t/TndjGhz4

.comment-meta .comment-reply-link {
color:black;
}
.comment-form .logged-in-as{
color:black;
}
.comment-link time{
color:black;
}
.td-author-post-count .td-author-comments-count{
background-color:#
}

And this css for the second issue:

.td_top_authors .td-author-post-count{
background-color:red;
color:black !important;
}
.td_top_authors .td-author-comments-count{
background-color:red;
color:black !important;
}

Result – http://screencast.com/t/mNhYPk8F8F33
I didn’t know exactly if you want background or color and I put in code both of them.

Thanks!

Thanks! the code you sent worked perfect.

Only problem is it didnt change the color of the boxes on the authors page. see pic below

That is the last problem I am having with any colors.

The other problem i am having and i may have to make a seperate post for this, but whenever you share via twitter it opens 2 new windows instead of 1. Facebook/pinterest and google+ only open the one, but twitter opens 2, on desktop and mobile.

Hi,

Please provide more details about the boxes you want to change color on author page and also provide your site’s URL.
Here is how you can change the author box background-color: http://screencast.com/t/tr4BFciDN8
Use this css:

.author .author-box-wrap{
background-color: blue;
}

The twitter share opening in two windows appears when using two twitter instances on the same page. This is a common twitter issue and we are still trying to find a solution for it.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for the message!
