Hi there,
I am trying to change my default text color from the standard gray to the pure black color.
I have tried making several changes to the template css file and have also made the change with ThemeMagic. My primary concern is changing the default color of article text. I have to manually change the text from gray to #000000 as of now. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Awesome! It did the trick. Whenever I go to a content page directly the text is as desired.

However, when the article is listed as a preview on the homepage or in a blog layout, it still has the font in the default color. Is there a quick fix for this too perhaps?

Hi @cmnow,

Use this in custom.css file instead:

body {
color : #e73628;
}
