Thanks in advance for your help. I have a site with a black background and the error message on the form is coming up in a maroon that can't be read:</p> <p><a href="http://www.beaconscreativecommunityspace.com/engage-our-space/reserve-beacons-for-your-event" rel="nofollow">http://www.beaconscreativecommunityspace.com/engage-our-space/reserve-beacons-for-your-event</a></p> <p>I put this in my Stylesheet -- first the way you say above:</p> <p>.gfield_error .gfield_label {<br /> color: #0E8F8A!important;<br /> }</p> <p>then to match the other entries:</p> <p>.textwidget .gfield_error .gfield_label {<br /> color: #0E8F8A!important;<br /> }</p> <p>But it's still maroon. Can you tell me what I need to do to make it change? Thanks.</p> <p>Val Moses </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/required-field-asterisk-colour#post-15249 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 23:33:15 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 15249@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yep. That's totally my fault. I specified a class name and not an ID in my sample. Sorry about that. This is the correct version.</p> <p><code>body #gforms_confirmation_message {border:1px solid red}</code></p> <p>I'll update the sample page too. Thanks for catching that. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/required-field-asterisk-colour#post-15248 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 21:47:03 +0000 WHIMPEYD 15248@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks, guys! This is most helpful. Referring to the CSS Guide link you provided...</p> <p>I've tried using the Confirmation code line provided in the guide to change the colors of the text &amp; box background confirming a successful form was sent, but no success. Suggestions? </p>
