Merged "Invisible text" - text font colour is the same as background colour

*** Topics merged ***

Hi There,

I have the same issues but the only difference is that my text is white on a white background.

Hi my website background colour is #502b4.
When I loaded up Kunena I noted that all the background colours were white and the text was also white.
I have made changes to the template.ccc at the below address
/public_html/templates/siteground-j16-21/css
However when I change the line 11 (or 6 depending on how you open the file) from color:#FFF; to color:#FF; and then saving.
This changed the forum text from white to black which we good, but it also changed all of my general text to the site from white to black on a background colour of #502b4 so I could not see the general text in the main site.
I tried to add the suggested text to the end of the template.css file but nothing happened. I also tried to add text
#Kunena .kreply-form .inputbox {
color: ##FFFFFF;
and
Kunena .body{
color:#FF;{
but that did not work either!

Any suggestions
i have also attached a copy of the screen shot showing hidden text and.

G'day, Holding on, and welcome to Kunena.

Try adding this to the end of your Joomla site template CSS file (../templates/siteground-j16-21/css/template.css):

G'day, to you too.

not clear want you want me to add

is it both lines or just the first line or Second?

please clarify

I will try to clarify this better for you.

Add all of the CSS (that I wrote for you in the "box" below) to the end of your Joomla site template CSS file (../templates/siteground-j16-21/css/template.css):

Hi There

I have tried the suggested changed but it has not made any differnce to the forum hidden text!!!!!

Hi Holding on,

- The first think you try to check the your site configuration. If you turn on cache of Joomla, you should turn off before reload your site.

- The second: If your site has been lived I think you should post your site url here. we will help you debug this issue.

Regards

Hi 9themestore thanks for your quick response.

my website is www.takingholdofthefuture.com and the Kunena is at www.takingholdofthefuture.com/index.php/forum

kind regards

Hi,

I have checked the template.css file of the current joomla template and seen the CSS rule define text color for Kunena forum. So I think you try to clear cache of your site and your server (If your server turn on cache). You can use this small tip.

- Open the index.php of joomla template and find below line: .

- Add this text "?v=1" after file name. .

- Upload this file to your server ([root]/templates/siteground-j16-21/css/)

- Press F5 or Ctrl + F5 to reload your site.

Hope this helps

thanks for that.

I just need to take you back three steps

where will I find the cache for the site and how do I clear cache of your site

where will I find the cache for the server and how do I clear cache of your server

where do I find the Index.php of joomla template

I use filezilla to edit most files is that OK?
