Thanks for the prompt reply, but I don't think I was being clear. I'm not worried about the colour for the overall site or the main content area: I've got those set the way I like and am quite happy with them. I'm referring to the background colour of a couple of very specific boxes that can be called on the site: Mediawiki would call them "templates" but I'm not sure what the phrase is for FBWiki. Because I'm an idiot, I did look through the CSS file and even did a find for the background colours to see if they were in there, but they're not.
A screenshot will probably help me say what I mean. http://www.corpexpanse.com/cradle/images/nocontrast1.png From: Simon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: November 16, 2008 9:44 PM To: Benjamin Massey Cc: pmwiki-users Subject: Re: [pmwiki-users] Editing Background Colour of In-Wiki Fields In the directory \public_html\pmwiki\pub\skins\pmwiki\ you will find the file pmwiki.css This file contains the basic look and feel for pmwiki.

Please bear with me. I've set up a wiki for my game's website and done up a semi-custom skin for it. It works great, except that it's a dark theme with white text on a black background. There are a few fields where the background has been set to a light colour and therefore the text doesn't show up at all. An example of what I mean can be found at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/BasicEditing - that yellow box and that list of additional pages in the upper-right hand corner. The background colours are the same on my site but the font colour is white, making everything illegible. The same thing happens to the box containing the editing tips on the edit page: it's white text on a white background. I need to edit these background colours, but I can't find where. It doesn't seem to be in the skin I borrowed's CSS file, and I can't find any wiki page to edit. It's no doubt something heartstoppingly stupid that I'm missing, but any help would be appreciated. _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users -- http://kiwiwiki.co.nz
