CSS modifications on a module which has no own css styles?

[rkorell]

@sdetweil Ahhhh…
THIS “bottom” …
Sorry for misinterpreting this.
Will try your suggestion.

@sdetweil
Unfortunately

.MB-Wetter-Temp .module-content div {
color: "fuchsia";
}

doesn’t work :-(

May you are much faster than me?
If you mind to try MMM-JsonValue with this

		{   /// WIND
			module: "MMM-JsonValue",
			position: "top_right",
			classes: "MB-Wetter-Wind",
			disabled: false,
			config: {
				apiBase: 'https://api.weather.com/v2/pws/observations/current?stationId=IGEROL23&format=json&units=m&numericPrecision=decimal&apiKey=e0658025e8d74a2da58025e8d70a2ddf',
				method: "GET",
				title: "", // Widget Title, set to null if not needed
				icon: "fa-solid fa-wind", // Font Awesome icon, displayed before any text, set to null if not needed
				prefix: "  Wind:  ", //   "Quote: \"" ---  Text displayed before the value, can be a blank String ""
				suffix: " m/s", // "\" (from https://api.quotable.io/random)" ----- Text displayed after the value, can be a blank String ""
				jsonPath: "$.observations[:1].metric.windSpeed", // value in the json to display, the module use https://github.com/dchester/jsonpath for parsing. Note: if $ is not the first character in your path, it will be added for backward-compatibility reason.

				refreshInterval: 5 * 1000 * 60, // refresh every 5 minutes
				debug: false,
				skipPadding: false, // yo can un-comment this line if you want to display a related value below; using a second instance.
			}
		 },		 

code snippet in config.js …
Gives you the windspeed on my weather station monitored by wunderground …

Thanks again !

color: “fuchsia”;

SO close… the color is NOT in quotes (in css)
sorry I missed that before

.MB-Wetter-Wind .module-content div {
  color: blue;
}

here I am using the dev window to override the blue to red… see the top right of the right column , note that the one from custom.css (just below), is strikethru to say it is overridden by something higher up
if you uncheck the checkbox in front of the color:red; it will disable that value and the strikethru will go away and the text will be blue

I guess your own CSS modification has enabled this…
Without this the entry #text doesn’t have any opportunity to change anything…

you are not styling the TEXT, you are styling the DIV that HOLDS the text
(my css entry commented out, and the div selected)
you cannot target the ‘text’ itself… only whatever holds it (p, div, span, table data…)

Yes, understood.
What I cannot understand and what doesn’t work for me is exactly this, what you (formerly) asked and demosntrated in your last post: touch this div -part…
what you DO have:

I do NOT have ! (for whatever reason!)
I have the

 <div class="module-content">

the following

<div style" color: red;">

is not present in my developer’s console:

???

Greetings,

@rkorell yes you do
the full html of that section

<div id="module_26_MMM-JsonValue" class="module MMM-JsonValue MB-Wetter-Wind MMM-JsonValue">
     <header class="module-header" style="display: none;"></header>
     <div class="module-content" style="color: red;">   // you are trying THIS div
            <div>  // but it needs to be THIS div -------------
               <span class="fa-solid fa-wind"></span>  Wind:  3.5 m/s
            </div>
     </div>
</div>

.MB-Wetter-Wind // the class name on the div id=
.module-content // then the div with the module content class
div // then the div that HOLDS the text value

..MB-Wetter-Wind  .module-content (means whatever element has this defined) div 

could also do

..MB-Wetter-Wind  div.module-content (means ONLY A DIV with class, a span with the same class would not match)  div 

many styles are NOT inherited DOWN the tree

because the span holds the icon, you can remove it for css design consideration of the text

<div id="module_26_MMM-JsonValue" class="module MMM-JsonValue MB-Wetter-Wind MMM-JsonValue">
     <header class="module-header" style="display: none;"></header>
     <div class="module-content" style="color: red;">   // you are trying THIS div
           <div>  // but it needs to be THIS div -------------
                 Wind:  3.5 m/s
           </div>
     </div>
</div>

@rkorell I think your div has the class margin-block-end added (maybe thru custom.css)

[rkorell]

@sdetweil

<div id="module_11_MMM-JsonValue" class="module MMM-JsonValue MB-Wetter-Wind" style="opacity: 1; position: static;">
<header class="module-header" style="display: none;"></header>
<div class="module-content">
<div style="margin-block-end: -30px;">
<span class="fa-solid fa-wind"></span>  Wind:  &nbsp;&nbsp;4 m/s
</div>
</div>
</div>

Is my complete HTML block for this…
Interesting enough YOU do not have this

"margin-block-end: -30px;"

in your HTML …
THIS style is hard coded in the *.js file of module…

I give up.
Problem solved…

THANK you SO much!
