If you take a look at the site, you'll see I'm able to achieve all the color changes to exactly what I need. I just can't figure out why the categories aren't changing. http://consciousfloat.com/

Thanks for your help!

Yes, it is number 1. I know how to find the category number -- it's how I'm able to customize the rest of the site. All my other custom CSS is working just fine, it's just not working for the category pages.

Yup, this is the EXACT tutorial I used when I attempted this. You can even see my comment at the end of the post! 🙂 Like I said, the changes aren't working for me. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks! You've been very helpful. The more I use Genesis themes, the more I love them.

Thanks, Lynne! I appreciate your time so much.

I did a little more experimenting and found if I did what I did but for individual posts like .postid-9 -- the color changes to what I need. I guess I could do this, but it means I just have to do it for every single post. I hope there's a better, more efficient way.

Hmm... I'm kinda stuck. I made the site live. Can you take a look? It seems the individual posts for each category goes to the default. I think I'm missing something.

I have one more question. I'm able to change everything I see when I'm in the archive page for the category, but when I click on an individual post within the category, the color goes back to the default. What am I missing here? Do I need to post the colors for EACH post as well? How do I do that if it calls for the same code?

Thanks again for your time!

Lynne,

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH! I'm a beginner in CSS so it is so much easier to see the solution when you pointed it out the way you did. I really appreciate it! I'm able to do exactly what I needed to do by finding the elements in Firebug! You're awesome! 🙂

Thanks for the response, but this doesn't really answer my question. The color style is set within the Genesis theme so I'm really not sure how to incorporate the changes. Just to clarify, I mean the color style in this section: Genesis > Theme Settings. Do you have any insight on how to achieve this?

Thanks to anyone that can help!

Works great! Thank you so much, Brad!

Thank you very much for the reply, Brad. But if I knew how to customize the code and conditional code, I probably wouldn't have asked how to make these changes.

I didn't include a link because my site is still under construction and it's not live. Also, I didn't see why anyone would need to see the site to help with this particular request.

To all who needs to customize the way I asked, I did some more digging and found this to be very helpful: http://www.wpstuffs.com/remove-dates-for-posts-in-particular-category-genesis-framework/

Essentially just copy and paste this code and insert your own categories in the 'cat-1' and 'cat-2' areas:

add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'post_info_filter' );
function post_info_filter($post_info) {
  if( in_category( array('cat-1','cat-2') )) {
  		$post_info = 'Posted by [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]';
	}
	else {
		$post_info = '[post_date] by [post_author]  [post_comments] [post_edit]';
	}
  return $post_info;
}

I should also note that this will conflict with Genesis Simple Edits plugin so use one ore the other. Hope that helps others!

Thanks for the response! I failed to mention that I already tried that. It works, but the problem is that it affects the rest of my blog archive pages. Any other suggestions?
