I use GK Highighter quite a bit. I am working on a new site using iLife. I put GK Highighter in the banner position.

The text that is displayed is surrounded by a green highlight that covers any background color I put in the module.

I tried modifying the colors in template > gk_stuff with no luck. I've also tried in the module files without success.

Assuming I don't fix it before you read this the link is

Yes, I can. Go to the link below. I would like to have the first example.

I can do that in other templates easily, but in iLife the template adds an additional color around the words.

In fact, that's part of the charm of the template - it adds orange or green highlights around certain text - module headers and titles for instance.

I would simply like to control that and turn it off for the Highlight module, if possible.

If you modified your CSS file yourself there can be a problem with colors (in case of overlaping classes) but have you already chcecked your settings in the Highlighter GK1? like background color?

I do appreciate that a modification might change more than I want and I think I will live with the template as is.

In response to your question, here's what I did -

I looked in the template CSS and made a couple of changes I thought might do it. Each change I made did not effect the Highlighter so I changed them back.

I also went in to the template file gk_stuff. There, of course there some code that specifically controls the highlighter. I changed each to #FFFFFF one at a time and then all to #FFFFFF at the same time, but again no change. Finally, I went looking around in the module's files that are uploaded to my host.

I do appreciate your help. If you would like to explore this further with that would be great. If you're busy and unable - I will as I say work with the template as is.

Thank you again.

Please have a look at below CSS files. Note that
background-color: #c2ea37
cuuse that green highlight. If you want to get rid of it, just delete the line.For futher changes like color hover add properties with hover behavior.

background-color: #c2ea37;

background-image: none;

background-repeat: repeat;

background-attachment: scroll;

background-position: 0% 0%;

You know - Maybe what I was doing wrong was not changing the color in both places at the same time. Thanks again ever so much.
