    I can’t get the text color to change for the names in the Slim Plus template. I found an old thread where you recommended putting the following code into custom CSS:

    #cn-slim-plus h3 a {
    color:#660066;
    }

    That code isn’t working for me. However, if I use the following code it DOES work, but changes the text color for all elements (can’t really have that).

    #cn-slim-plus * {
    color:#660066;
    }

    Any ideas? I’m on WP 4.6.1…

    Ok, so I’ve confirmed it’s related to my theme “Hueman”. If I switch to the 2016 theme, I’m able to control the text color via the “h3 a” CSS code above. As a workaround, I was able to use this custom CSS code to affect the h3 header type site wide:

    .entry h3 span {color:#696969}

    Although the issue is technically “fixed”, I’m still curious as to why the theme is hijacking the h3 header color. Any ideas?

    re: I’m still curious as to why the theme is hijacking the h3 header color. Any ideas?

    Either the load order of the CSS or the weight of the CSS selector in the theme is causing it so it can not be overridden.

    I actually recommend this way to change the color, the builtin method. See this FAQ.. The color is set inline and is much less likely to be overridden.

    Hope this helps!
