Making text darker in Lifestyle Pro

[merpmerp]

Hello,
I am currently using Prose for my site but would like to change it to Lifestyle Pro. When I change it though, the text is not dark enough.

In Prose, I know I can go into Design and make changes to the font, but I do not see that in Lifestyle Pro. Is there an easy way to make the text in the body darker?

Around Line 144 of your style.css you will find

body {
    background-color: #EFEFE9;
    color: #A5A5A3;

Change the #A5A5A3 to another colour of your choice. #000000 will give you black.

Eamon,

Thank you for that information. I was hoping to be able to do it without getting into the CSS, but you gave pretty specific information, so I don't think it will be that difficult!

You don't have to go in and edit the actual style.css file in the LIfestyle Pro childtheme. Go to your WP dashboard, then go to "Appearance" and "Edit CSS"... you can drop the code above in there. This will overwrite what's in the Lifestyle Pro CSS. An easy way to update the CSS without altering the original file. Just make sure that the code opens and closes properly (above the end bracket } is missing)

I think that is where I actually am, I didn't know any other way to do it.

I went to "Appearance" and then "Editor".

I was able to change the text to 000000.

Now, I would like to change the secondary menu from white to black. I don't think it is called "menu" in the editor, or if it is, I've missed it.
