Search Page Font Color White

Go to solution Solved by paul2009,

Hi @mackenzieu what happens to the search page if you remove whatever Custom CSS you have on the website? I would guess that you've got some CSS that targets too broadly and is therefore affecting the Search page. Either that or you have something set to white in the Style Menu for the default colour theme. Let me know if you find anything!

When the search results pop up, text is white. How can I change to black?

The text is white (#fff) because someone has added Custom CSS to force this colour, using the "!important" rule to override wider settings:

color: #fff !important;

Removing this line of CSS will prevent the text appearing in white on a white background.

It may help to know that, unless you override the settings with custom CSS, the font colours on the search page are usually determined by the settings in the "LIGHTEST 1" theme.

@paul2009 Thank you. I took out all the custom CSS and the text did show up as black. I've scoured this code for what may be the culprit and can only find two instances where #fffff is mentioned. When I removed those lines, the search text did not change to black. Does anything stick out to you that may be causing the issue?

The listing above doesn't match what I see on the site, but looking at the site, the issue appears to be with line 110 where the important rule is overriding the text colour on all pages containing a primary-button-style-outline class.

@paul2009I was able to pinpoint the piece of code causing the search text to turn white. When I remove it from the custom CSS, the search results show up black. However, this code is used to make the button the slider banner white. Is there a way to still keep the button text white and make the search text black?

/* Sliding Banner Button */
.primary-button-style-outline .bright .sqs-button-element--primary, .primary-button-style-outline .bright .sqs-button-element--primary.comment-btn, .primary-button-style-outline {
  color: white !important}

Thank you so much for your help!
