Hi! I wonder if someone can help me out. I’ve searched all the documentation but I can’t seem to find a the CSS to **change the font colors in the category overviews**. Currently it’s light grey, which is hard to read–I’d love to simply make the font black. Thanks for helping a beginner 🙂

The font is grey because it indicates that you have read this topic. It helps differentiate read/unread topics.

This is the default CSS:

```css
.topic-list-item.visited a.title:not(.badge-notification), .latest-topic-list-item.visited a.title:not(.badge-notification), .category-topic-link.visited a.title:not(.badge-notification) {
    color: var(--primary-medium);
}

```

You can replace `--primary-medium` by other color variables, such as:

```plaintext
--primary
--primary-high
--primary-high-or-secondary-low
--primary-low
--primary-low-mid
--primary-low-mid-or-secondary-high
--primary-low-mid-or-secondary-low
--primary-med-or-secondary-high
--primary-med-or-secondary-med
--primary-medium
--primary-or-primary-low-mid
--primary-very high
--primary-very low
--primary-low-rgb
--primary-rgb

```

Or by a custom color.
