Found it. Changed #000000 to #FFFFFF and it did something and then lines and stuff appeared, but when I tried a test post it was still gray.

It seems to be fixed. The preview does not work until you save and refresh I believe.

in your ACP under CSS files look for

Code:

.postprofile {
    color: #000;
}

Change the 000 to your new colour and save

Saved, still didn't work. CSS is a pain these days..

Can you please take a screenshot of what exactly you are wanting to change?

On a phone so no I can't. Can't APE or another support mod or manager look at it.

Support Moderators and Managers aren't the only people who can help or share codes. I'd like to help, but I just need a better understanding of what you want to change.

In my CSS Codes(in the admin panel), APE told me to find the code he posted. I changed the 6-diget Hex Code to #FFFFFF and it didn't change the text color.

I meant what do you want to change? Like the general issue you are having. Are you trying to change the text color when typing?

If so, try:

Code:

.sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
    color: #000000 !important;
}

Change the #000000 to whatever color you want the text to be.

Find it in my CSS?

Add it into your CSS at the top.

Put your code in the "Search in CSS" thing and when I pressed search it didn't do anything.

You are adding the code like I said earlier, not searching for it. It is not in your CSS yet, therefore, it will not be found.

I have to manually add in the code? Okay...

Yes, you have to add the code.

Forumedic wrote:Yes, you have to add the code.

Added in the code. Tested it, in WYSIWYG mode it was white.(When I typed) and when I returned to the other mode it was black.

Remove the code I gave you earlier from CSS and try this:

Code:

.sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #000 !important;
color: #fff !important;
font-size:13px;
}

Do not change any of the colors, just paste that in the CSS and delete the CSS code I sent earlier.

It just made the entire post box black.

The first code I gave should have worked. Did you change the color? If you didn't modify the color that would make sense why the color didn't change. Just try this:

Code:

.sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
    color: #ffffff !important;
}

Didn't work.

Try:

Code:

    .sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
    color:white !important;
    }

I have that on my forum, it should work as it does work for mine.

Didn't work.

Sorry to go a wee bit off topic here, but I just wanted to let you know you can take a screenshot from a phone. If you have an andriod, hold down the power button and the button at the same time. This will take a screenshot. I take screenshots from my phone all the time.


Thanks Forum medic for helping with this issue, your doing great and sorry to slightly de rail it. I just wanted to let Kratos know he can take screenshots, even from a phone.

Ohh yeah, I think I have that on my Galaxy s6 edge+ I just forgot where the setting is to find it.

There is no setting, just hold your power/screen lock button AND your 'Home' button at the SAME time to make a screenshot. It may take you a couple tries to get the hang of it, but once you do it is easy .

Sorry to take this off topic once again .

Can you please give us a screenshot of the code you put in your CSS? The code works.

Took a screenshot on my phone of the CSS. I don't know how to send it here.(Galaxy's are weird)

Upload it via servimg, once you get the image url, tap with both fingers on your screen over the url, when the copy and paste pop up comes up, select 'Select all' then 'Copy'.

Then come back into the main typing area, tap a blank area of it until the little arrow comes up, then select tap that arrow until a pop up that says 'paste' comes up. Paste the url.

Now when you hit send it will post the image .
