    1. Change the title to Contact Us or Contact MEM

    2. How to add some text eg " Thank you for your enquiry. We will get back to you within 24 hours"

    3. How to remove the widgets from the side of page ie

    Search:

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you again Gourav. I will give these a go..

    Also I have a client who would like to use this theme but would like it in pink or purple.

    Is there a way to do this?

    If not is there a way that when the theme is next updated that these colours could be added. They are colours that are liked by hairdressers, massage therapists and similar type businesses, so would really extend the usage of the theme.

    Many thanks

    Maggie

    Hello,

    You will not get theme directory in your dashboard.
    You can edit blue.css file through FTP.
    Open your Theme directory (through FTP) > css > color
    Download blue.css file from there, Edit it, Then again upload it.

    Hi there Gourav,

    I tried making changes to the orange.css file through FTP using the diagram above but all I succeeded in doing was to changing the borders.

    I have not done this before so I'm trying to find my way. Virtually I want to be able to change all the orange colours to pink but there are so many different colours in the style sheet I'm not sure which ones to change and not mess the whole thing up.

    Is there a way you can create an image as above with arrows to the areas I need to change..

    My apologies for being such a pain, however once I know what I'm looking for I will be able to adapt in future...

    Many thanks for your patience.

    Cheers

    Maggie

    Hello,
    Go to the Appearance > Theme Options > Styling Options and select the orange color from the Theme Stylesheet section.
    And now go to the orange.css file (Theme directory > css directory >color directory >orange.css) present in your theme directory and edit all the color code as shown in the image given below.
    http://content.screencast.com/users...f0-4c5c-966e-8246693c8e4c/2013-06-11_1857.png

    In the Theme there are some section where the colors are displaying with the help of images through the background CSS code and that images are present in the images directory (Theme directory > css directory >color directory > images directory) of your theme directory.
    For this, go to the images directory (Theme directory > css directory >color directory > images directory) present in your theme directory and replace the image with your edited color image and use the same name of your custom edited color image as previous image have.
    Use Photoshop or any other image editor tool to edit the images.

    Do the above steps for all the background color code and background image css.
    Through this you can change the theme color.

    Thank you Piyush. Once I make these changes is there a way to save the css sheet so I can use on other sites without having to change again?

    Would it be possible for Inkthemes when next updating, to add a pink template into the theme?

    I have to say that the support provided by the team is outstanding. I have asked many questions (being a newbie) and have always received a prompt response. I thank you all so much for your patience and for going the 'extra mile' to assist me.

    Cheers

    Maggie

    Hello,
    You can use child Theme for the customization of theme.
    Follow the link given below for reference
    http://www.inkthemes.com/httpwww-in...rdpress-a-way-to-save-themes-modification/02/

    Currently it is not possible to add pink template into the theme because theme color are sufficient in it.
    If you would need any help at the time of theme color change then you could ask it worriless in the support forum.
