    In progress Change Post New Topic text editor color

    Post by David Cordero April 10th 2016, 3:16 am

    I need help to change the text color from white to black. The text editor as it is appears as white text on a black background so basically no one can see what they are writing. Heres a screenie. I have fiddled with some of the color options in the admin section but they seem to affect other text in other parts of my forum. Im happy with pretty much all the color scheme except the (Post New Topic) white on white.

    Add this to your CSS:
    Code:
    .sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
        color: #000 !important;
    }

    Add it at the very bottom or very top, just make sure it does not split other code (in between), make sure it is seperated from other code.

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


    position:absolute;
    top: (new X position);

    It needs to look like this:
    Code:
    .sceditor-container iframe, .sceditor-container textarea {
        color: #000 !important;
    }

    Also, when sending code, it's best to use these tags:
    Code:
    [code]CODE HERE[/code]

    Are you using the quick reply or full reply? Also, I see the code is shifted right, try copying all the code except the bracket and en add the bracket after you paste the code.

    The bracket you add needs to be all the way to the left.

    Guests cannot reply. Also try posting the code at the very top, even above the bracket.

    Hmmm ok well the screenshot I posted at the beginning is what it looks like. If you highlight the text with mouse you can see its there but while typing its just white text on a white background. Is the code I have correct?

    As shown on line 1 there is this bracket "{" that is above the code, remove it and place it below the code. I'm very confused what your CSS looks like now.

    Take a look at these options: AP > Display > Colors & Pictures > Colors
    Look down the page for editor toolbar and background options.
