Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
You can use “Custom CSS” for this, on the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress. I suggest to inspect the selectors with the Developer Tools of your browser.
To change the strings to something else, please use https://tablepress.org/extensions/change-datatables-strings/

I am sorry, but that’s not very clear. I know where the plugin options tab is and I see the Custom CSS but that doesn’t tell me how to effect the table. I need a little more direction than that.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
you can insert CSS code to modify the styling of the text field into that textarea, for example something like
.dataTables_filter {
color: #ff0000;
}
That would change the color to red.
For changing the text of the label, you can use the mentioned Extension.

P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
Hi Tobias,
Is there any way to change the background color ONLY the search box?
Thank you 🙂
Hi,
that should be possible with e.g.
.dataTables_filter input {
background-color: #ff0000;
}
