    [Blog] Blog read more text

    On the blogs when someone click read more on a blog the text all goes white but is fine when just browsing the blogs lists.

    The colors are all set to automatic.

    I have checked this on our default theme and we actually have the same problem.

    I checked the style var on the default theme and there were no changes made to anything

    What should I change to make it the correct colour



    P.S. just for reference the default theme is the VBulletin white theme with blue everywhere (althought this is not our sites main theme)
    If i haven't already told you, I've caused the problem on [URL="http://www.xboxplayers.co.uk/site/content.php"]Xbox players official site[/URL="http://www.xboxplayers.co.uk/site/content.php"]

    If I post CSS and you don't know where it goes, throw it into the additional.css template.

        As in a completely blank page?

        If so, please see the link below for known causes of blank or white pages and the steps to resolve these:

          Ah, there it is... my site had too short of articles to show that link.

          As Trevor said, see that page in the manual about blank/white pages. You should probably check your error_logs (if you don't know where they are, ask your host) first to see what is in there.

              Have you a link to a page where this is happening?

              It's going to be related to your custom style, which we can't support, however I might be able to point you in the right direction.

                So sorry - I misread you!

                Is this on everyone's blog that you are seeing white text? The reason I ask is that the users may customize their blog, and the text color is something they may customize. So they could have just done a poor job with the colors and not realized they had white on white. Otherwise, it should be the same color as the body_color stylevar.

                You could try something like this in your additional.css:

                HTML Code:
                div.blogbody blockquote.blogcontent {color: black;}

                  Brilliant Lynne you cracked it the profile was customised to work on a different theme by going into the user and editing his blog customisations to blank it follows the sites them again.

                  P.S. the additional css i did try first but it didnt work

                  Thanks
