    Hi,
    Is there an easy way to change one particular color for the whole website into another color?
    Thanks!

    edit the stylesheet – probably via a ‘custom CSS’ plugin https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css

    using a browser inspection tool should help you to identify which styles you need to edit.

    Thanks Alchymyth.
    But in fact I want to know if there is a code to change a particular color on whole the website into another color.

    It’s not that simple. The code is entirely specific to your website, which is why Alchymyth encouraged you to explore this yourself.

    Where do I have to look then?

    Just view your website in Google Chrome, then right click on the page and select “Inspect element”. Look on the right-hand side of the new toolbar that appears. There’s the CSS for the element you right clicked on.

    Yes, I have been there over and over. Thanks.
    Just don’t know how I should change one color into another on whole the website. Changing H-tags is simple, I’m talking about all facets (text, backgrounds, hyperlinks, hoovers etc..) with one particular color…to change it with a code or something.

    if you are able to post a link to your site, and explain in detail what color of what elements you want to change to what other color, somebody here might be able to help a bit.

    what theme are you working with?

    there is generally not ‘one changes it all’ command in CSS – the colors might have been defined on various elements, and might even be part of background images….

    you might need to change more than one style, and possibly do this via a ‘custom CSS’ plugin instead of editing the stylesheets of your theme directly; https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css

    Half of my page titles don’t have H-tags, I have colored them: mostly #ECA883. Since I want to change the background color I want to change all text with this color on my site into another color, say: #af0233.

    Desperatly want to know how I should do this ??

    Yes, I do use a Custom CCS plugin – and I have an Artisteer theme.

    might be tedious, but you probably have go through the stylesheets of your theme, locate all styles with that color code, and overwrite the color with a new style in the custom styles.

    for details, to see if there is anything theme related that can be done, please ask at an artisteer forum.
