Widget Font Colors

Hello,

I found a previous post where someone wanted to change the color of the widget font. It was suggested to add a CSS in the Appearance – Customize – Custom CSS. I copied and pasted the CSS which was provided, however, this did not work. I am using Highend on three different sites. Is there additional coding to make this work as a simple cut/paste did not work. Sorry but I’m not a developer.

.widget-item { color: #000 !important; }

Thank you,
Carol
