Caption font color

Scoot

I would like to change the caption font color to be darker than the other fonts on my page. I have started with an Arrow template and have customized my theme to add in a different google text. I like the font for all the site, but because of my background, which is a b&w floral photo, the white lettering gets lost in some places and you have to scroll to position the caption so that you can read it. I would like it to be darker (charcoal grey), without changing the font color of my nav bar or menu. This would be for all galleries. I have looked around and tried a few things, but no results. Also should the CSS be added in Entire Site or All Galleries.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

Can you post a link to a page showing the caption? Is this for a gallery page or a folder page?

As Allen noted above, it is very difficult to help without a link to your site and to the page in question. Please add a link to your site in your signature so it is always available to the helpers here. Click the clipboard icon in the navbar above, then Edit Signature. Begin your link with http:// to make it clickable.

I'm just guessing where you want to change the color; in case you are looking to change the caption in lighbox, this CSS can be used:

.sm-lightbox-caption { color: #6B238E  !important; }

You'll need to replace the color code with the one you want to use. If you need a color chart, here's a link to the one that I usually use: http://www.december.com/html/spec/color.html

Thanks Allen and Denise. My appologies for not mentioning that this site has not been published yet. That is why I had not listed it in my signature.

I tried the code that you provided, Denise, and it seemed to flicker to the color I chose and then back to white again once again and stayed white. Something was overriding it I think. It doesn't help that my internet service is crap today. I will be publishing my site on Wednesday. This is not a show stopper so maybe I should wait until then and I can then provide access so you can see it.
