Reply To: font shadow

@ Jane

It’s definitely the theme style. It is using white text and text shadows throughout the entire design which the template is inheriting. To override this design for the template add the following to the theme’s custom CSS area or to the end of the theme’s styles.css file:

#cn-tile-plus .cn-entry {
    font-size: 12px !important;
    text-shadow: none;
    color: #000;
}
#cn-tile-plus a {
    color: #000;
}
#cn-tile-plus a:hover {
    color: #000;
}
#cn-tile-plus .cn-entry .fn {
    font-size: 14px !important;
}

Also, since the theme’s font is really narrow, I added a couple styles to increase the font size a bit. Additionally, I suggest using the background gradient shortcode option to lighten the gradient to make the black text easier to or change the #000 in the above styles to another color that better stands out against the gradient.

Hope that helps!
