Hey,

I'm wondering if anyone here could help me out with a phpBB problem. I've been trying to solve this problem for days and days to no avail.

I have a phpBB forum running, and it looks as I want it to look, but when I'm going into administration, all the titles of the pages show up in black regardless of the main text color I set in my styles admin.

This would normally be bearable, but I have a black background so it's really messing with me. I'm generally pretty good with this sorta stuff so I'm boggled as to why I can't find where this is set.

Help is greatly appreciated.

The admin panel should use the default skin for easy measure. Ours does, once you login to the admin panel subSilver just takes over.

Just make sure you don't delete the subSilver folder from the templates folder. You can make sure your members don't use it by not creating a style reference for it in phpBB itself. The admin panel will still use it though.

Yes, I realized the part about using subSilver. I modified subSilver, and the changes were reflected in the admin panel. However, the source of that black text color still remains a mystery to me, as NONE of the text colors selected in my modification are black.

Hmmm, okay. I'm not sure about the subSilver stylesheet but perhaps there is no font color set at all, then it's also black.

Try adding the following to the top of the subSilver stylesheet:
Code:
body,div,td { color: #FFFFFF; }
It should globally set your font to white.

I tried that, but that text is still as black as ever. I also went into includes/index and changed the font color there.... which didn't work either. I went through all the php pages to see where the text was thrown in and couldn't figure it out.

This is just getting rediculous, no fault of anyone's here, but I don't know how I'm supposed to solve this.
