You can target this class to apply your own styling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the following CSS snippet changes the font family, size, and color of the title:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">.wp_aff_title {<br>  font-family: Arial, sans-serif !important;<br>  font-size: 28px !important;<br>  color: blue !important;<br>}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Changing the Affiliate Portal Body Text Color<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can change the main body text color of the affiliate portal by targeting the <mark style=\"background-color:#abb8c3\" class=\"has-inline-color\">#wp_aff_inside<\/mark> ID. This controls the default font color used within the portal area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the following CSS snippet changes the body text color to gray:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">#wp_aff_inside {<br>  color: gray;<br>}<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide has covered some basic changes that you can make to the affiliate view to give it a little personal touch.
