Dave,   We are all noobs around here…  Don’t worry. 

Not sure I totally understand,  what you are trying to do.  But if you want to target the text showin in the edit mode version of the field - you’ll want to build your css around the “input” tag.

So here is something I did:  I added the css class “greenText” to a field editor and then added this css rule.

.greenText input {    color: green;  }


And the field editor looked like this: 


 

Thank you Rob, yes as u said, I’m trying to change the color of text from field in edit mode

I just copied your exact code, put it in a css class (inline) -Just changed the color to red

I put in the field the CSS class name: greenText (tried as well to do it on field Editor instead of specific field)

But still did not work, the text is not red

The field is still shown in the default color I chose on Theme (green)

You could try this instead - might be worth a shot:

.greenText input {color: green !important;}<br>

Ty Louis, but unfortunately that did not work either

If you set your Theme to default will it work then?

Hey Tami,

I did try that as well but did not work either.

If i use the code below,The color works, but on all All large text type of fields

.greenText .nx-field input, .nx-field textarea {
 color:#ff0000
}

But still cannot get this to be applied on specific field

Try this to limit it to just fields with the greenText css class.

.greenText .nx-field input, .greenText .nx-field textarea {
 color:#ff0000
}

the comma in your rule represents the start of a new selector.

Ty Ben, that worked perfectly
