How to Change the Colour of Text or a Heading in a WordPress Post or Page

In this tutorial, I will explain, very quickly, how to change the colour of some text, or a heading, in a post or page in WordPress, using the inherent Rich Text Editor (RTE).

Step One – Click the “More Options” (show/hide kitchen sink) Button

First up, the option you need is in the more, or “kitchen sink” options. Press the button to reveal them as below!

That’s it! Finish your post or page, and hit “publish” or hit “preview” to see how your colours look in real life without publishing.
