  6 restarts in 10 seconds, most likely an error on startup. Halting.

And then immediately it states that NodeBB is not running.

When I load my site, it just states:

I logged in tonight to try and upgrade my NodeBB version but when I log into my Ubuntu server it doesn't allow me to access any files/directories. I know that I have root/SU access. The install was done by someone through NodeBB but none of the prompts shown in the NodeBB documentation will work when I follow along with them.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I've trying to isolate a few things now:

I can't find a way to colorize this white strip.

The font color for the "chat, quote, and reply" so it's easier to see.

And then the widgets (header/side bar) and button bar (I don't know what it's called).

I've tried looking up the classes but they haven't provided a result that fixes it.

Again, all help is greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone.

I've been trying to update the background as our site has gotten some feedback to change the white background.

All the skin options don't provide enough consistency as certain text will be dark-on-dark making the skin impossible to read.

Been using CSS to hard-code the color scheme but I can't find anything for the text box or the threads.

This is what the site looks like now: https://forum.hawkscast.com/

Guys on Twitter helped with the categories to get colored, but just this final step.

I would love to make a couple of skin options but need to dedicate more time or find some step-by-step instructions to help me along the way.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
