It’s specifically targeting all inputs types and setting the color to white, as EE applies minimal styles so that it follows with the sites theme it also effects those fields.
The custom CSS you included above appears to be working for me and sets the text colour to black, is it not working for you?
However, you don’t actually need to do that with CSS, you can just add some additional CSS to override the theme’s.
input[type=”text”] {
color: #000000!important;
}
Add that in Dashboard -> Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS and it will override all other styles for the input type ‘text’ colour (because its using !important). Or you be more specific with your CSS selectors (high specificity ‘wins’) like:
If you are editing the files directly within the theme, I highly recommend creating a child theme so you can continue to update the ‘parent’ without losing your customizations.
