In Theme Options > Typography I can change the main font and body font, font size, font weight, style, etc., but when I change the color it doesn’t change on the front end. I’m entering the hex code #333333 but the font stays the default gray on the front end.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

AP

I want to change the body font to a darker color. The default gray is a bit hard to see. I would assume, since that option is available at Theme Options > Typography, that that is where I would change it but it isn’t working.

So changing it in Theme Options doesn’t work?

I added the css code you provided into the custom.css file but it didn’t change anything. I even added the !important declaration but it still didn’t change the font color.

The change finally took but it changed the background color outside of the boxed layout. I want to change the font color.

We’re sorry. It’s a bug in our theme.
But you can try to add code like this. This will be work:
```
*{
color:1D1D1d !important;
}
```
Sorry for the inconvenience.

It looks like there’s a bug in changing the heading fonts too. I tried to change the H1 heading to a different font but it wouldn’t take on the front end. I ended up having to change it using css.
