 * Trying to customize Button Theme. I keep changing the Header Text color in the
   customize section and it keeps changing back to orange. How do I fix this?

 * Hi [@whenthekidsgotobed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whenthekidsgotobed/),
 * Were you able to resolve this issue on your end? I’m currently seeing that your
   site’s title is a dark purple:

 * Yes, I did. Took a while but found the correct css code to fix it. Thank you.

 * I’m glad you were able to find CSS to fix the issue.
 * I haven’t been able to replicate trouble with changing the **Header Text Colour**
   via the Customizer on my end.
 * It’s possible the issue you had was caused by a plugin conflict. If you’d like
   to test, try disabling your plugins one by one and then check to see if the option
   then works.
 * We’re right here if you have any extra questions, too.

 * Thank you for providing this code for me to fix the color of the header text:
 * .site-title a, .site-title a:visited {
    color: #f78769; }
 * I didn’t have the option to customize CSS in the the theme’s customizer, so I
   used a CSS plug in, but regardless, I came to realize, even without the code,
   the color of my header title can be customized on every browser but Chrome, where
   the header text is the default orange, but it’s dark gray as intended on other
   browsers like explorer.

 * Nevermind, I entered the code incorrectly. It’s working now. 🙂
 * You are a great person, Siobhan Bamber.

 * Hi Todd,
 * I’m glad you were able to resolve this!
 * The option of adding custom CSS doesn’t appear in the Customizer for sites that
   are hosted outside of WordPress.com, and so you were right to use a custom CSS
   plugin instead. 🙂
 * If any extra questions come up then please don’t hesitate to start a new thread
   on this forum.
