    Hi guys,

    I’ve pretty much got the colour scheme set up how I want it to be with a few exceptions that I’m having trouble locating the correct option for. There does not seem to be an easy way to figure out where certain elements inherit their colour from without guessing, the live tool certainly doesn’t help. Is there a way to know this by inspecting elements in the browser?

    I would like to change the blue size guide to black text, changing to my accent blue on hover. The current blue is not even in my colour scheme so I’m assuming it has a transparency filter on it? Where is this?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    That blue color is a bug from your Mailchimp plugin, the plugin has added its own CSS file which is overriding the native link color.

    I believe the plugin allows you an option to add their own CSS. Please check that setting if possible.

    Hi David

    Thanks for the advice. I deactivated the plugin to check this, it is now grey and then changes to a purple on hover, this purple is also not in my colour scheme so that is confusing to me.

    I need the mailchimp plugin to be activated, would you happen to know what the code would be to stop this from happening?

    I’d not recommend you try to force it with custom CSS.

    But if you want to try it, it would simply need to override the classes the plugin is adding:

    .ui-state-default a, 
.ui-state-default a:link, 
.ui-state-default a:visited {
    color: red;
}
.ui-state-default a:hover {
    color: green;
}

    Can you activate again the mailchimp plugin so we can check how to overwrite the css to change the text to black?

    Thanks

    Thanks David, Rui.

    I’ve re-activated mailchimp now.

    I think you’ve misunderstood David! I reactivated so Rui can figure out the fix! (Hopefully)

    Add the code that David provided to the custom css option and replace the color by your desired ones.

    The CSS triggers mailchimp to a fatal error so I’ve decided to just delete Mailchimp and find another way around this. I will try to configure the built in newsletter subscription code provided.

    Thanks again for your guidance on this.

    Hi Adam,

    The CSS code will not trigger a fatal error. Be sure you only add the CSS to Theme Options => Custom CSS.
