title: How to change default text color for entire site
body: <p>I built a website with a WYSIWYG website builder using a template provided by the program.  I have since abandoned the template and use CSS to style everything, but for some reason I cannot change the default text color of the whole site.</p>
  <p>I thought that simply changing the body color in the CSS would change the default color:</p>
  <pre><code>body {
  font-family: Lato;
  font-size: 14px;
  line-height: 1.42857143;
  color: #ff9900;
  background-color: #750204;
  </code></pre>
  <p>So I tried changing the color: #ff9900 to &quot;b6b6b6&quot; but that didn't work.</p>
  <p>Then I literally replaced <em>every</em> instance of ff9900 in the CSS file to b6b6b6 and still the website shows the color ff9900.  I don't get how that's possible.</p>
  <p>Obviously I don't really know what I'm doing so be gentle.  Thanks for any advice.</p>
