    Hi,
    I have been using Elementor for my site https://www.concept8media.com.au. I wanted to add a contact form and using a WordPress widget the site origin’s testimonials widget. On the testimonials, the text needs to be white due to a dark background and on the contact form, the text needs to be black due to a white background. However, the only way it seems that I can change the colour of this text is through my Sydney theme’s default text colour which changes both to either black or white. I cannot change the text in Elementor as it is not an Elementor widget. Does anyone know how I could make the testimonial text white while the contact form text is black?

  • You can use the WordPress’s built in Appearance > Customize > Custom CSS to adjust theme specific styles that are written too strong for Elementor to override.

    Alternatively you can add the custom css to your theme’s style.css file but best practice is to use a child theme where it’s own style.css is not overridden when your theme is updated. There are many child theme generator plugins out there.

    Try this.

    label.wpforms-field-label, label.wpforms-field-sublabel.after {
    color: black;
}

    Hi There, I use Elementor with Genesis framework and Darling child theme. However, it doesn’t allow me to choose any colour of my choice, apart of default palette which I don’t want. How to arrange it that child’s theme override any Elementor rules? Please help. I don’t code but would need to resolve this asap. Thanks.
