Thanks for filling in the sorely lacking details in my response! ;) Much better now. Thanks for taking the time Brian<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Apr 22, 2009 at 1:27 PM, Brian Choc <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bchoc@t4tcolorado.org">bchoc@t4tcolorado.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div><pre>#sidebar-right h2, h2.heading, .block h2{
background:#027ac6;
color:#ffffff;
...
}
</pre><div>This section, among other things, sets the background to blue and the H2 text to white. However, as Tom points out, this is being overriden by the anchor tag surrounding your titles, which brings in this style:</div>
<div><pre>a:link, a:visited {
color: #027AC6;
text-decoration: none;
}
</pre></div><div>and also </div><div><pre>a:hover {
color: #0062A0;
text-decoration: underline;
}
</pre></div><div>So you will probably want to adjust the colors for the hover color as well, but of course only for the specific situations where this blue-on-blue comes up. If you're not familiar with the Firebug add-on for Firefox, you should look into it as it's a great way to find out things like "where is that color coming from?" I'm not sure where your comfort with CSS is so I'll just sort of stop here on the CSS stuff.</div>
<div><br></div><div>One other thing though: you're using the Garland theme and these styles are coming from the /themes/garland/style.css file. If you'll be doing any substantial changes, you may want to look into setting up a sub-theme rather than modifying the included style.css file because any installing a new version of Drupal will overwrite your changes. If it's just going to be one or two little things (like this color change), that's probably not necessary. However, you will want to make sure you note your changes so you can recreate them later when an upgrade is done.</div>

The headlines are there but styling like your generic links. i.e. both the link text color and the block color are the same. <br>
<br>You'll want to add something like this to your CSS. I'm not a CSS guy so I'm only giving a place to start.<br>

Hello there!<br>
<br>
I'm having an annoying problem with a News Feed. Long story short, I'm very<br>
new to Drupal, trying to help sort out this website that was created by<br>
someone else a few years ago, so I apologise if I don't give all the<br>
pertinent info straight away, I'll do my best but please ask if more details<br>
are needed! It's for Edinburgh's Peace & Justice Centre, so it's helping a<br>
good cause. I just don't know what to do in this situation...<br>
<br>
If you could have a look at this page:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.peaceandjustice.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.peaceandjustice.org.uk/</a><br>
<br>
you'll see the Recent Features feed, on the right panel.<br>
<br>
And here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.peaceandjustice.org.uk/news" target="_blank">http://www.peaceandjustice.org.uk/news</a><br>
<br>
you'll see the Our News feed on the right panel.<br>
<br>
Previously, they were the exact same feed. I succeeded in creating a new<br>
feed for the News page which would only show News items, and editting the<br>
front page feed to only show Features and Analysis. BUT, although as far as<br>
I can tell I made the News feed to be exactly the same as the frontpage<br>
feed, except for the filter, as you will have noticed the headings for each<br>
item are different and you can't read the headings on the News page until<br>
you hold the mouse over them or Select All text.<br>
<br>
So I want the appearance of the news feed to be the same as the Recent<br>
Features feed on the front page. But after going through all the Administer<br>
menus several times the only thing I can find that might help is to edit the<br>
colours in the Garland Theme somehow, but I'm reluctant to do this incase it<br>
makes some big changes elsewhere - particularly worried I do something<br>
that's hard to turn back, like what I've done on the News feed! I'm really<br>
hoping there's a really obvious solution to this that someone will recognise<br>
immediately, that would be just fab.<br>
<br>
As I said, please ask for more info if it's necessary, need to get this<br>
fixed soon as possible so people can read the news headlines! ^_^<br>
<br>
Many many thanks<br>
<br>
Simon<br>
