I apologize if this isn't the correct forum but I want to change the text color from #2379B5 which is the default to #000000.

I'm new to this stuff so I've looked and looked to no avail so hope some of you can point me the right direction.

There are several different text colors used in a vB5 forum (and several pages, too). Can you please specify *exactly* what text you are trying to change.

Lynne,

I would like to be able to change all of these in blue to black.

Thank you very much.

Did you try the stylevar body_link_color ?

I saw that Lynne but never could find its definition when I was searching the styles.

I ran a text scan on the directory and see it defined in style_generator_sample_dark.xml and style_generator_sample_white.xml but not for sure what role they play in the system.

I also tried putting it in the additional.css template and that didn't work for me so still stumbling.

Thanks Lynne.

What do you mean you tried putting it in the additional.css template (which doesn't exist in vB5 - it's called css_additional.css)? It's a stylevar. You need to go to Style Manager > select Style > Style Variable Editor > Go > find body_link_color > change color > save

I love you Lynne. I'd been hunting the thing for three days with firebug.

Thanks a million.
