<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">This is my first day using PmWiki, I have absolutely no idea what<br>
terminology to use here and will thus sound like a moron. Please bear<br>
with me.<br>
<br>
I've set up a wiki for my game's website and done up a semi-custom skin<br>
for it. It works great, except that it's a dark theme with white text on<br>
a black background. There are a few fields where the background has been<br>
set to a light colour and therefore the text doesn't show up at all.<br>
<br>
An example of what I mean can be found at<br>
<a href="http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/BasicEditing" target="_blank">http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/BasicEditing</a> - that yellow box and<br>
that list of additional pages in the upper-right hand corner. The<br>
background colours are the same on my site but the font colour is white,<br>
making everything illegible. The same thing happens to the box<br>
containing the editing tips on the edit page: it's white text on a white<br>
background.<br>
<br>
I need to edit these background colours, but I can't find where. It<br>
doesn't seem to be in the skin I borrowed's CSS file, and I can't find<br>
any wiki page to edit. It's no doubt something heartstoppingly stupid<br>
that I'm missing, but any help would be appreciated.<br>
