Changing the color of the site description?

Jan

2012

The site description on my site is useful, but its black, and totally stands out of my light blue themed forum. I tried using BB code to change the color, but that doesn't work. Its not possible to not have a site description. Is there any way to make it a different color?
If not, then you can just close the thread

Try that & check

Code:: <font color="#FF0000">Site Description</font>

Or add to Stylesheet:

Code:: div.maintitle h1{ color: #COLOR !important; }

Here you have to choose the color: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp

Thank you both!
One more question, is changing the color the only thing I can do to it, or can I also make it bold or change the font?
If there is, can I have a code for that?

Code:: div.maintitle h1{ color: #COLOR !important; font-family: Arial !important; font-weight: bold !important; }

Thank you! This post probably helped the most
The code seems to work, but the color still isn't changing, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'll probably figure it out...

Hi,

Did you add your color code in it where it says #COLOR !important; ?

7 Coddy, on 06/01/2012 at 21h24

color: #COLOR !important; You need to replace #COLOR by a color name, or a hex color. Read http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp

Yeah, I replaced it with a color from colorpicker.com

Can you show the full code you used?

div.maintitle h1{
color: #Blue !important;
font-family: Segoe !important;
font-weight: bold !important;
}

color: #Blue !important;

Change Blue into its code: #0000FF.

Blah still doesn't work
Is there any other setting I have to have it on?

13 Coddy, on 06/01/2012 at 23h13

Try Sanket's code. That code goes to the site description field. Smile

14 Jellydonut, on 06/01/2012 at 23h38

Yay! It worked
I thought I was supposed to put that code in the CSS, that's probably why it failed
So do I do the same thing for bold?

Nevermind, I figured it out
Just like bbode but with < > instead of [ ]

The mods can close this thread now
