Title: Site Tagline Hex Code Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Site Tagline Hex Code * Resolved [suburbtosuitcase](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suburbtosuitcase/) * (@suburbtosuitcase) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/) * I promise I will not ask the same question as everyone else on how to change the green color (I found those answer and hex codes) but can you please share the hex code for the Site Tagline, specifically? It’s a light gray which I would like to make darker if possible. I did a search in the style.css but cannot seem to determine which code is for the Site Tagline. Thanks so much for taking time to answer all of our questions! * [http://suburbtosuitcase.com](http://suburbtosuitcase.com) Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * [salsaturation](https://wordpress.org/support/users/salsaturation/) * (@salsaturation) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458465) * Hi suburbtosuitcase * If you don’t already have a custom.css you should install a plugin like [custom CSS plugin](http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-css-manager-plugin/) then change the 999 to the colour you want then add it to the custom css area. * ``` #site-description { color: #999; } ``` * [batharoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batharoy/) * (@batharoy) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458466) * If you meen {Lessons Learned as a World Traveler in Training}, current color is #999 * ``` #site-description { font: 14px helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20px; color: #999; font-weight: 200; } ``` * Thread Starter [suburbtosuitcase](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suburbtosuitcase/) * (@suburbtosuitcase) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458467) * Thanks so much to you both!

I’m going to try to remember how to make this change in my child theme and once I test it out and see it’s resolved for me, I’ll close the thread. Appreciate your prompt help! * Thread Starter [suburbtosuitcase](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suburbtosuitcase/) * (@suburbtosuitcase) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458480) * As I feared, I can’t make it work. If you have time to help, here’s my follow- up question: * In my child theme style.css, do I just insert this block at the end and make the changes to the hex code and save or is it more complicated than that? When I put this into my .css at the bottom, modified it and clicked “Update File,” I did not see any changes on the refreshed site even though I did get the message“ File Updated Successfully” on the WordPress Appearance \ Editor screen. * #site-description { font: 14px helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20px; color:# 999; font-weight: 200; } * Thank you for any ideas you may have time to share. * [batharoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batharoy/) * (@batharoy) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458483) * You should only need to add this part. Change the 999 to the hex code for the color you want. If you just want to darken it try 666 or 555. otherwise do a search for “html hex code” to find more options. * ``` #site-description { color: #999; } ``` * Thread Starter [suburbtosuitcase](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suburbtosuitcase/) * (@suburbtosuitcase) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458487) * That’s what I thought, too, but when I made some changes just to see if it would work for me, nothing updates. For example, I tried inserting the following at the bottom of my child theme’s style.css: * #site-description { font: 14px helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 20px; color:# 439f55; font-weight: 220; } * I may have a broader problem with the child theme even though the one other change I have in it works fine. I noticed that when this particular theme updated recently from version 1.3.7 to 1.4.3, that the parent theme update worked fine, but the child theme is flagged for needing an update that never works. I assumed this was just the case with child themes since perhaps they never update along with the parent, so maybe that’s my problem. I’ve been thinking about possibly uninstalling the child theme and then reinstalling it to see if that would help. Not sure if I should need to do that, but perhaps that update is what is preventing the child theme from updating? I’m just a beginner so I’m not sure what the issue is. * [salsaturation](https://wordpress.org/support/users/salsaturation/) * (@salsaturation) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458496) * > even though the one other change I have in it works fine. * Can you give an example as I cant see any child-theme css being pulled in * Thread Starter [suburbtosuitcase](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suburbtosuitcase/) * (@suburbtosuitcase) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-tagline-hex-code/#post-4458501) * That’s good to know. Maybe the child theme is the culprit then. I just looked under Appearance \ Themes and it does appear that the child theme (listed as “ Travelify Child”) is marked as active. Interestingly, the theme listed as “Travelify” is actually the one that says the update is available but that one is not activated( presumably because the child theme is). It seems like the child is indeed the one that is active though because the change you will see in the child .css below removes all text under the featured slider on the home page (otherwise, it kept inserting a comments box and wanting to include posts there so we Balint Toth and I worked to get that code update made and it is still working well). Here’s all I have in the child theme: * /* Theme Name: Travelify Child Theme URI: [http://colorawesomeness.com/themes/travelify/](http://colorawesomeness.com/themes/travelify/) Author: Color Awesomeness Author URI: [http://colorawesomeness.com/](http://colorawesomeness.com/) Description: Travelify is a clan, simple and fully responsive WordPress WooCommerce theme that looks awesome on any device.
