The color is grey because the CSS is telling it to be grey which is what #888888 is.</p> <p>If you want it black you need to change #888888 to #000000 </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-do-i-change-the-font-color-in-a-form#post-25080 Mon, 09 May 2011 12:22:43 +0000 hillbillionaire 25080@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Kevin,</p> <p>Thank you for your response.</p> <p>I opened the style.css file for the form at<br /> <a href="http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/" rel="nofollow">http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/</a></p> <p>I found the code you mentioned on line 1235 and the font color was defined as<br /> color: #888<br /> I changed that to color:#888888 and uploaded the edited file.<br /> I also tried changing the font color to color:#000000<br /> The color of the font in the form didn't change after either edit. </p> <p><a href="http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/" rel="nofollow">http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/</a></p> <p>Here's a screen grab of the edited style.css file opened in dreamworks.</p> <p><a href="http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/screen_grab.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/screen_grab.jpg</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-do-i-change-the-font-color-in-a-form#post-25045 Mon, 09 May 2011 09:09:32 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 25045@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You would have to define a new class in your theme stylesheet, then apply that class in the admin to each field or form and that's not really necessary. The easiest thing to do is to open your themes style.css file and change line 617 where the color is defined.</p> <pre><code>[css] .entry-content label { color: #888888; font-size: 12px; }</code></pre> <p>to</p> <pre><code>[css] .entry-content label { color: #000000; font-size: 12px; }</code></pre> <p>screenshot: <a href="http://grab.by/a5fx" rel="nofollow">http://grab.by/a5fx</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-do-i-change-the-font-color-in-a-form#post-24983 Sat, 07 May 2011 03:35:53 +0000 hillbillionaire 24983@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a form in a Wordpress site using the 2010 theme. The font color is for each field except the first one is appearing as a light gray. The font color for the first field is appearing as black.<br /> How do I change the font color in the fields where the font color is gray so it is black.<br /> Here is the url for the form:<br /> <a href="http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/" rel="nofollow">http://tapenews.com/thetapeworks_survey/</a> </p> <p>I understand that a CSS Class name can be defined for each field but I don't know the CSS Class name that would be for font color or how to adjust a CSS Class name.</p> <p>thanks,</p> <p>G.
