Why is the subtitle grey in my Dawn theme image banner?

Topic summary

Issue: In the Dawn theme’s Image banner, the subtitle text appeared grey and the user couldn’t find where to change it.

Initial responses: Some participants requested the store URL and password to diagnose remotely. Another suggested the color might be hard-coded and advised checking the theme code (Edit code > Sections > banner).

Resolution: The user located the styling in assets/base.css under the .subtitle class. The grey look was caused by the CSS opacity set to 0.7 (making the text partially transparent).

Fix: Changing the opacity from 0.7 to 1 made the subtitle fully opaque, restoring the intended text color.

Outcome: Problem resolved with a direct CSS edit. No further actions or unresolved questions.

Notes: Opacity in CSS controls transparency (1 = fully opaque, 0 = fully transparent). The attached screenshot was illustrative but not essential to the solution.
