In progress Text In Quote Box Same Color As Background And Unreadable

Post by Bloodhound1958 May 5th 2017, 11:35 pm

I recently changed our forum theme and the text in the quote boxes of posts is now the same color as the background and unreadable in the quotation box. Also seeing this in the chatbox as well. Any help or instructions as to how to remedy this is most appreciated.

Sidenote: I just looked up this movie 'Christine' / 'The Car' the other day. Awesome. I'll be looking into this topic of yours now, just wanted to share this with you.

Got an example?

We're running PunBB. I'm a bit rusty and can't remember how to get to the CSS... Sad

Oh, and I was going on what your profile said: phpBB2. Anyway, what APE suggested should work for the quote boxes, however not in chat. I'm a bit rusty on CSS for the old chatbox, but you should be able to determine the right selector for the font color using the dev tools (F12).

The selector for quotes in the chatbox is this.
Code:
div#chatbox blockquote { CSS CODE }
