    Hi,

    I didn’t decide if I like to use Wanderer yet, because I am wondering if there is a possibility to change the colour of the menu and heading.

    Thanks in advance.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi, you can change those with custom CSS, like this:

    .site-header,
.aside-container {
    background: red;
}

    Thank you, it works. But now, the field around “search” is still dark grey. How can I change this and the headline text colour?

    ok, maybe you can check my blog and see the problems.

    current questions:
    1) Whats the colour code of the text? because i would like to use this colour for the heading, the subheading, the widget text, the whole text in the menu “home, about” etc. even for the menu-symbol (basically everything that is white right now). Could you please help me? Would be amazing!

    and last questions I guess:
    2) Now, the title and subtitle of the blog aren’t in the middle of the grey area. It looks like there is more space under them than above. I would like to locate them in the midde but still on the left side.
    3) When you open the menu, the word “home” is located a little bit too high. I think this could be an improvement in general. So i think the list starts too high and should start at the same line “the blog” itself or the space/picture of the first blogpost starts. I hope you understand what I mean.

    That’s all and thank you so much!

    You can change the search BG like this:

    .widget {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e8e8;
}
.widget_search {
    background: #e8e8e8;
}

    Each of those text items has its own CSS rule, you’ll need to add these rules to override them:

    .site-title a,
.site-description,
.main-navigation a,
.textwidget,
.widget-title,
.widget ul a {
    color: #000;
}
.menu-global {
    border-top: 2px solid #000;
}

    This will center the title and description:

    .site-header {
    padding: 2% 0;
}

    For the sidebar, this is the current padding rule:

    .aside-container {
    padding: 20px 0 60px;
}

    You can adjust that first value, 20px, to move the sidebar lower if you want the menu and other widgets lower.

    Thank you so much! Everything works and I still love the blog.
    Only one text looks still different. It’s the word “Suchen..” and its colour.

    Is that for the search bar? That text is supposed to look different, that’s how its designed.

    I’m not sure what you are referring to.

    1st: I was just talking about the colour of the text in the search bar.
    2nd: When you open the menu and put the cursor on “home” or “Kontakt” etc. It turn in light blue to show that you can click on it. You know? I#d like to change that colour, too.

    OK, you can change the color of the search text like this:

    .search-field {
    color: #000;
}

    And you can change the color of the menu hover with this:

    .main-navigation a:hover,
.widget ul a:hover {
    color: red;
}
