Categories' Font Color

💪

Can any body describe any specific solution of this? I am looking for the solution for many days but sadly unable to sort this out yet and find any solution. 

Hi @nance7 

1. Head to settings → Click “Portals”:
 

2. Press “Customize portal” on the portal you wish to style:
 

3. Select “Stylesheet”:
 

4. Scroll to the bottom of the sheet and add the following snippet:

 

h3.heading a {
   color: #66004d;
}

The value “#66004d” is called a hexidecimal, and you could for example go to lifeafter like HTML Color Picker (w3schools.com) and find the color of your choosing and copy the value from the highlighted field on the page:

 

...and overwrite the example value I provided in my code snippet.

5. Press “Save and Publish” on the stylesheet page to make the changes go live on your portal:

 

**Note: This will also affect the color of category headings in forums.

Your suggestion is great. Adding one more thing in you suggestion that we should always pick brand colors. Anyone can brand color of world large company on google. That would be the best selection for UI/UX of website too.

Thanks @marryhussaim! Interesting. If I understood correctly: One should look at a major website that is popular (for a big brand), and see what color they have on a heading with similar placement (also similar placement in the heading hierarchy, if that makes sense)?

If so; is that because more people will be familiar with it?

I think the person meant that because big brand websites already have done some research on color schemes and choose that specific color scheme that’s why we should also choose those. That’s what i understand by that comment. Correct me if i am wrong

It also helped to change color of my website using the given guide.

Can any body describe any appropriate solution for this. What is the exact situation about it.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will reach out to my Administrator.

Okay @nance7 , then I guess you don’t have portal customization included in your current plan.
