    Hi! I have the premium Neve theme and I’m using a Dark color palette. I posted this over in the general help area and someone from WordPress said that this is a theme issue.

    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/post-editor-with-black-background-cant-see-text/#post-18152917

    My site and plugins are all up to date. Since the switch to 6.7 (I’m now on 6.7.1), my post editor has not been showing text. My site has a dark background and so the background in the editor is dark. Previous to 6.7, the text used to be white (reflective of the text color on my website) and now since the update the text also dark so I can’t see anything there anymore. I’ve played with a bunch of settings and turned off Use Theme Styles in the Preferences > Appearance, but that didn’t make a difference. Please help!

    Having the exact same issue. The background is took over from the ‘Color&Background’ but the text-color is not used in the editor.

    I fixed this for my self by changing the CSS-files in the two themes: \wp-content\themes\neve\assets\css and adding color: var(–nv-text-color)

    • gutenberg-editor-style.css
    .editor-styles-wrapper, .editor-styles-wrapper > * {
      background-color: var(--nv-site-bg);
      color: var(--nv-text-color);
    }
    • gutenberg-editor-style.min.css
    .editor-styles-wrapper,.editor-styles-wrapper>*{background-color:var(--nv-site-bg);color:var(--nv-text-color)}

    NOTE I’m not a wordpress-developer, but this worked for me (hopefully it is the correct change)

    Thank you for this! I contacted ThemeIsle and they were unable to fix this issue so I sent them to this post. Hopefully they implement your fix on the whole theme.

    Thank you again @rpeters78! I added those to my CSS files and now I can see the text again. I still have some weirdness around the font-family not being inherited in unordered lists, but I’m not going to let that bother me for now. At least I can finally see what I’m doing. Lol. I sent this support thread directly to ThemeIsle and I’m going to hope they fix it for their next update.

    Hi,

    A fix for this will be included in the next update. Thank you for reporting this!

    Kind regards,

    Rodica
