Changing Colors
I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately regarding changing colors in the forums and for the blogs as well. So here’s a guide for you guys who want to play around with colors. Continue reading on to view the full article of this post.
Changing colors in the Forums
This should be simple enough, login and then join the forums. Once you are there we need to do something first before we can start.
1. Click on “Preferences” located at the upper right corner of your web browser. (If you are already set to advanced then skip this step and go directly to number 4.)
2. We need to make sure that your editor mode is set to “advanced”. Make sure to select “Advanced” and then click on “Save”.
3. You can now start posting. Either create a new topic or reply to an existing one. You will now notice when you post something new.
4. Type in your text then highlight it. Once that’s done, click on the icon with the letter “A” with a thick line under it. A selection of colors will pop-up. Select your color and you are done!
Changing Colors in your Blog post
Here is how you change colors in your blog post. Login to your blog and create a new post.
1. First off, we need to select a different editing mode. By default the blog is set to “Visual”. We need to be in the “Code” mode so please click on it.
2. Once you have switched editing modes to “Code”, you can begin entering your text. If you want a sentence or your whole post to be in color we need to use an HTML code called “font color”. Check out the example below.
In the example above I wanted my text to be red. To do so, any text I want in red should be inside this code:
This is red!
Just make sure that the colors you choose are the basic ones. If you want other specific colors, that’s another blog post for another time. ^^
