    We’re having issues with a CSS file forcing a text color that we don’t want. There are no settings anywhere within the wordpress backend that have this color. The only place we can find it is within the enfold_child_theme.css file.

    We’ve found that directly editing the CSS file to change the color works, but when we update the Custom CSS any changes to enfold_child_theme.css are lost. Deleting the files doesn’t work, as then it is just recreated with the red color unchanged.

    Hey jaimemerz!

    Have you checked the Enfold Options > General Styling > Main Content

    If you still have any issues please create a temporary user with ‘administrator’ role and share in private content with permission to deactivate all plugins and add custom code if necessary to help you resolve this issue.

    Cheers!

    Yes, we’ve been through all possible settings that could be creating this issue. This red is no where to be found.

    I have created an admin account for you so you can investigate further.

    Hi!

    Please add following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under General Styling tab

    .main_color .sidebar a { color: orange; }

    Best regards,

    Thank you for the code, but the sidebar is not the only place where this is happening. I have circled the dates under the blog posts to show they are red as well, and the circled code in the inspect element shows that there are quite a few elements of the site being affected by this code. The element says this CSS coloring is coming from the file named “enfold_child_theme.css” which we have found through the SFTP backend (path wp-content > uploads > dynamic-avia > enfold_child_theme.css). Deleting or modifying this file does not work, as it reverts back to it’s original (incorrect) state whenever we save general settings in the wordpress backend.

    Our question isn’t what code to use to cover the incorrect coloring, we want to know why this is happening in the first place so we can fix the issue at it’s source.

    Hi!

    As you might already know most of the colors applied can be changed from Enfold > General Styling

    Apart from that we noticed in Appearance > Editor > Child theme styles

    In your case it looks like the colors are coming from child theme CSS which are manually added to the theme… all tho child themes are not a part of the original theme it overrides all styles of the main theme.

    These are the only 2 places from where you can change the colors.
