Hi again,
I’m wondering if you can help me with the following.
1) I’d like to change the color of my site title header. How do I do that?
2) Also, the width of the content is very narrow. I’d like it to match the size of the header content above.
3) How do I change the font color and size for my content?
4) I would like to add a line around my search box so that is visible.

I apologize for all of the questions and really appreciate your help. I have reviewed the support forum and css tutorials and can’t seem to locate this information.

@mintamim: All the question asked in there in the theme options in Simple Catch Pro theme. So upgrading will help you. See the feature list here http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/simple-catch-pro/

For Simple Catch Free theme you need to add Custom CSS. But to provide custom css, I need to see your site. So, send me your site URL.

Hi Sakin,
Thank you so much for your help. I would like to stay on the free theme if possible. I was able to do #3 (changing font size and color of the content), but the others I am still stumped.

Here is my URL:

Thank you again for your help!

1) I’d like to change the color of my site title header. How do I do that?
— You can change the color code and add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

h1#site-title a {
    color: #444;
}

2) Also, the width of the content is very narrow. I’d like it to match the size of the header content above. Add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

.no-sidebar div.col8 {
    width: 100%;
}

3) How do I change the font color and size for my content?
— You said it’s solve. So, I leave this.
4) I would like to add a line around my search box so that is visible.
— I don’t get this.

Hi Sakin,
Thank you so much for your response. This worked great.

I can’t seem to change the site description color. I tried
#site-description { color: #000; } and it doesn’t change? Any suggestions?

Re: #4. I wanted to add a black line around the Search box in the header, in case I change the color of the header to make sure it’s visible.

Thank you again.

@mintamim: For site description add the following css
#site-details #site-description { color: #000; }

For header search input box border.

#header .social-search form.searchform input {
    border: 1px solid #000;
    height: 33px;
    width: 200px;
}

Sakin, is there also a way to change the color of the content beneath the slider? I was experimenting with different colors for the header, but the print beneath the slider looks faded when I do.

Best,
Maria

@MairiaM: Sorry I don’t understand can you send me your screenshot.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, Sakin. Underneath the slider on my site (http://www.readingforpleasure.net/), there is an excerpt for each of the pictures that scrolls.

When I try to change the background color of the header, the excerpt print is barely visible. I’d like to change the color of the print to black, like the “Continue Reading” and site headline “Reading For Pleasure.”

Best,
Maria

@MairiaM: Oh you mean the font color. That’s not the background color. You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box to make the same as your continue reading.

.featured-text {
    color: #000;
    font-weight: bold;
}

Wonderful! Thanks again!
