Hi andytc, thanks -- I had to move forward with a different theme. I think I actually did try that code though.

OK, well, I've had to move on with a different theme

{...sound of crickets}

Can anyone help with this?

[addiesgram]

Thank you Brad

andytc, thanks for your time -- actually the single-post background color is suppposed to be transparent, as it is in the demo version for a single post. But it *isn't* supposed to stay transparent on scrolling (hence the white text on white background). In any event, deactivating the Design Palette Pro restored the original customizing so I'll have to leave it disabled. Bummer. I've never had the gppro plugin cause this kind of issue.

Thanks again for offering time and help, I appreciate it. Take care and stay safe out there.

Within style.css I have removed the transparent css from site-header on posts, and I now see the gray header on my iPhone. However, the gray site-header area is disappearing as I scroll up the post on desktop. Not sure how to fix this one : (

[addiesgram]

Thanks Andy, can you help me understand this -- in style.css I do find the entry

single-post .site-header {
background-color: transparent;
} 

but I do not find

body.gppro-custom.single-post .site-header {
    background-color: transparent;
}

I also do not see any indication within the Design Palette Pro plugin that I can make anything transparent -- and certainly I didn't knowingly make anything transparent, either using the plugin or going straight to style.css.

Does Design Palette Pro - merely installing it - mean css changes can be made by the plugin? I've used gppro on all my sites and I've never seen this happen before.

I found Brad D's tutorial on this, so I'm marking my question Resolved

[addiesgram]

So, I haven't resolved the issue but I did a workaround: With experimentation I discovered that I can change the cta text color to any color

other than

#fff.

Black, red, you name it -- just not pure #ffffff. So I've changed the color to #fcfcfc which still gives me white text (or at least white enough!).

I'm still wondering why #fff was a "no go" in this theme so I'll not mark this as Resolved just yet.

Anita et al, as I mentioned in my first post, I've examined the style.css file and it indicates that the cta button text (link) color is #fff;

a.cta-button {
	background-color: #899f30;
	border-bottom-width: 0;
	border-radius: 5px;
	color: #fff;
	display: inline-block;
	font-size: 18px;
	font-weight: 300;
	line-height: 1;
	padding: 15px 20px;
}

a.cta-button:hover {
	background-color: #0ebfe9;
	color: #fff;
}

Design Palette Pro also indicates the color of the cta button text (link) is #fff;

Inside the Site Tagline Widget is this code:

<a class="cta-button" href="https://catherineleblanc.flywheelsites.com/contact/">CONTACT ME</a>

The cta button text is currently adopting the color of sitewide text links and ignoring #fff in both Palette Pro and the style.css file

I'm happy to send the site's login info to anyone who is willing to take a look and help me resolve this issue -- thanks.

Victor, as I said, the site is in a staging area and is password-protected, which I have no control over at the moment. Is there a way for me to get the login information to you without publishing it here? You have been helpful to me in the past and I would appreciate it if you could take a look at the CSS.
Thanks for replying

[addiesgram]

Forgot to add: I'm using Minimum Pro theme and the cta-button is in the Site Tagline-Right widget

Yes there were issues being caused by the previous attempt using another approach. That's cleaned up now I believe, and all looks ok except I just need the widget to be centered and on large screens the text is a little too small.

[addiesgram]

Hi Brad, I can engage either here or on WP Sites, whichever is more convenient for you. Where can I send you login info?

[addiesgram]

Will try that, thanks for hanging in there with me!

Well I did study the home.js file for Altitude Pro, then went to the js folder for Parallax Pro to see if I could replicate the code. There is no home.js file for Parallax Pro -- that I could find in the js folder -- and none of the files in the js folder looked similar. If anyone can get me closer to the code I'd need to edit in order to get the first home section image in Parallax Pro shorter in height while leaving the other home sections alone, I'd appreciate it.

[addiesgram]

Thanks again -- oh boy, I do not have the confidence (read:skill level) to try modifying that code. I was hoping it would be a bit of css editing. Thanks again, though. I may ask my client to consider other SP themes -- she just liked the parallax effect but doesn't want site viewers to have to start scrolling the minute they land on the home page, to get down below the image to the site content.

[addiesgram]

Thanks Brad, and thank you for your super helpful published tutorials which have helped me over the years. I figured it would be css edits, I just don't know what to edit : (
