We have a contact form on our website. The font color is a pale orange. How do I change that. The usual Customize Theme fonts and options did not do it. Please note we are on Odoo Online so a custom app won't help us.

Hello Leon Curchack,

You can change this pale orange font color to other font color using custom css on your module.

For ex.

<input type="text" placeholder="Your Name" class="form-control o_website_form_input" name="contact_name" id="name">

#name::-webkit-input-placeholder{
color : yourcustomcolor;
}
#name::-ms-input-placeholder{
color : yourcustomcolor;
}

I chose a color #134C89 and put this text into the CSS called user_custom_rules.

#name::-webkit-input-placeholder{

color : #134C89;

}

#name::-ms-input-placeholder{

color : #134C89;

}

I saved and refreshed but there was no change to the pale orange color. Let me know if I put it in the right place. Thanks.

Hello Leon Curchack,

I think you should add css like

#name::-webkit-input-placeholder{

color : #134C89 !important;

}

#name::-ms-input-placeholder{

color : #134C89 !important;

}

Thanks,
