Theme color change WordPress

Ant Lively comments:

Hi Arnav,

Just a heads-up that I updated/re-explained my issue above. Either I didn't explain clearly enough yesterday or didn't provide enough info, because no one was able to help..

Thanks!

you have to change following at

themes/wp_muzak/colors/yellow.css

line 148
.post-intro h2 a {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(206, 157, 92, 0.9);
}

line 195

.tour-date {
background: url("../images/colors/cream/bg_tour_date.png") repeat-x scroll 0 0 #786434;
}


line 124
.action-btn.buy, .action-btn.view {
background: url("../images/bg_btn.png") repeat-x scroll 0 -225px transparent;
}

all these places will go with backgroud-color:#F6C76F

Thanks Arnav! That got me on the right track!

I'll award you the prize. But before I close this thread, I just need to change the main slider text from white to black like the rest of the news items..

You should also look into functions.php file code . most of the developers use functions.php file to store theme options.

Hi phppoet,

Just a heads-up that I updated/re-explained my issue above, and added the functions.php file along with the color_options.php & yellow.css files. Either I didn't explain clearly enough yesterday or didn't provide enough info, because no one was able to help..

Thanks!

No, actually I just switched from the default-pink preset color to another one of the [[LINK href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s9/sh/20b13625-3f6f-46d9-a928-1b6509e64634/33f640b8482f62a088da00802abe023a"]]preset colors[[/LINK]]: "cream" (#ce9d5c). It's closer the the yellow I want, but it's not the #f6c76f yellow I need.

I created [[LINK href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s9/sh/4936a0f9-763f-4a8c-9bb5-f04f9abc28a7/25666054773aac1f9d197659acfe1404"]]this[[/LINK]] file by making a duplicate of [[LINK href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s9/sh/02c433dc-3315-42a6-8dc5-94ebfccf5c74/a76b8e1ee84a0af027099aaccba78c36"]]this[[/LINK]] file and then replacing all of the #ce9d5c (cream) with #f6c76f (yellow). I named it "yellow.css". (view code here)

I then added [[LINK href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s9/sh/8ca8ebbc-352a-4e92-aa82-12b212bcc126/9c4313f86a27d2004e4bec9edba113ff"]]this[[/LINK]] line of code in the color_options.php file in order to get [[LINK href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s9/sh/047b079d-c2ad-452d-92a7-fb3e6490506b/741b5414db2d70beab7726ecc71d5a03"]]this[[/LINK]].

But when I select "yellow" from the theme options panel, I still get the "cream" color that you see displayed there now. ? Can't figure out what I'm missing!

adding option doesn't neccessorily include the file you want . You need to find out the function which includes color css file when particular option is selected . Just like when you select red theme includes red.css . creating just option and renaming file and changing color code alone will not work .

just look into some other files which includes color css file if particular option is red , green etc.

once you done this , you should change colors of containers from cream to yellow . Don't replace every cream with yellow . Using google chrome will help a lot . Take cursor on element which you want to change and then right click and select inspect element and find the name of that element and search for code of that element into yellow.css and replace cream with yellow .


just like .post-intro h2 is one element . just change color of such a elements .
