    Hi guys, I hope someone can help me. I will most likely be buying the everest pro theme once I have finished this site to have an interface to do this. I am trying to change the colour of the featured content text on the home page. I have been trying to add my own CSS but nothing I have tried has worked so far. The page is here, any advice would be hugely appreciated:

    Just to update- it’s just the headings on the bottom sections I am trying to change the colour for.

    @tychoweb: Yes Pro version will give you more control. If you are trying to change later then best will be to do it now. It’s lot easier. See theme instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/

    For now, you can add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box. Change the color code as per your need.

    #featured-post .entry-header .entry-title a {
        color: #222;
    }

    Hi @tychoweb, I had a peek at your site to see which headers you wanted to change. Can you tell me what you did to add the form to the right hand side of the Contact Us page? I’d like to add a form to my site too…

    Many thanks

    @Charliecorns: The site is using “MJ Contact us” plugin. There are various plugin for Contact form and the best ones are “Contact Form 7” and “Jetpack”.

    Hi guys,

    Charliecorns, I used MJ conact us from the form and widget logic for it to only appear on some pages.

    Thanks Sakin, I actually got it working with this but I’m sure a lot of it is unessary:

    /* Header Background Color */
    #masthead {
    background-color: #D8D8D8 ;
    }
    /* Content Background Color */
    .site {
    background-color: #D8D8D8 ;
    }

    #header-menu ul.menu a { color: #D8D8D8 ; }

    /* For widget background and text color */
    .widget {
    background-color: #D8D8D8 ;
    color: #454545;
    }
    /* For pages and posts */
    .hentry {
    background-color: #D8D8D8 ;
    color: #0000;
    }

    Also Sakin, I do have one more question. I have finished the site but I need to add an email address in the right header. Are you able to advise any way of just adding some text here?

    One more question, I am thinking of upgrading in the next month, will the sites I’m working on be upgraded or will I have to start them from scratch to use the new features?

    Great work by the way, I really appreciate all your help on this forum. I am completely new to WordPress and feel I am really getting somewhere.

    I realise this is the third “one question” but I am trying desperately to make the telephone bigger (it is h2), in the code below, whatever I set the font-size to isn’t making any difference at all. The ‘font-type’ works but I can’t make it bigger. Is there anything wrong with this code?

    h2 {font-family: adobe-garamond-pro,sans-serif;font-size: large;font-style: oblique;font-weight: 399;letter-spacing:8px;}

    @tychoweb:

    — To add email address in the right header section. You need to use Catch Everest Pro theme and then you can add widgets in Header Right Sidebar.

    I am thinking of upgrading in the next month, will the sites I’m working on be upgraded or will I have to start them from scratch to use the new features?
    — The upgrade process from Catch Everest Free to Catch Everest Pro is pretty smooth in you haven’t change any core theme functions and style. All your customization from Theme Options, posts, pages and everything will be upgraded smoothly.

    — Change the size in the following css and add it in “Appearance = theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

    #site-description {
        font-size: 13px;
    }
