Funki Theme Custom Colour problem

    Bought a theme called Funki over a week ago and have gradually been editing it to my liking. It comes with multiple colour themes in basic colours but it allows you to edit those colours to a certain extent.

    I picked the pink theme (as I wanted it), but the default pink is very bold in colour and doesn’t match my custom background. I’ve been able to individually change all the colours to a lighter tone but if you check out my site for yourself, you can see that the border of the theme is the original dark pink and I don’t know how to change that.

    The arrow that displays the date next to my title of blog entries is also this colour, along with the border of the drop down navigation bar.

    As you can imagine, I would like everything to match.

    Could someone offer any help? 🙂

    The border colour is set in the style.css file 

    #pagewrap {
    border-color: #FF0097;
}

    The date arrow is here

    .post-date {
    background-color: #FF0097;
}

    The best thing to do is open your css file in a text editor and do a search and replace on #FF0097

    I changed it to no avail :'[

    }
#pagewrap {
	background: #fff;
	border: solid 7px;
	border-color: #f94270;
	width: 1060px;
	max-width: 94%;
	margin: 0 auto;
}
#body {

    It’s still how it was..

    According to the style sheet on your server it hasn’t been changed. How did you do the changes?

    I think you changed it in the wrong style sheet you need to change it in

    Yeah, that’s the problem. I have no way to see that file and edit it.

    Can’t you get to it through your admin pages?

    Appearance -> Editor and choose from the Styles menu on the right

    My style menu gives me the option of:

    Stylesheet
    (style.css)
    media-queries.css
    (media-queries.css)
    prettyPhoto.css
    (prettyPhoto.css)

    The style.css is a different one from the pink/style.css that I need..

    Can you use FTP to download it from your site. Edit it and the upload the changed file?

    I downloaded Filezilla ages ago but I don’t have the details to log onto it. My friend hosts my site for me, he has them all but he’s too busy to help out.

    I’ve managed to find a way to over-ride it. Could you tell me the value that I would need to change the colour below my navigation bar?

    Also, the value to change the border of the drop down menu?

    Thanks for your help by the way, it’s much appreaciated.

    Or you could right click on the link to the file that I put in the earlier and choose ‘save link’ or ‘save target’ depending on your browser to save it to your computer. Edit it and then upload it to your site making sure it goes in the right folder.

    Try adding:

    #bgwrap #pagewrap {
    border-color:#f94270;
}

    to the bottom of the style.css file that you can edit via Appearance->Editor.

    I found out that adding !important; was able to over-ride it and make it work.

    I just changed the .post-date part but the weird little ‘point’ is still the old colour? >_<

    @esmi
    I think the style sheet that is needed is loaded after the ones in Appearance->Editor
