For example im trying to find to change the default color on php code (blue one) and i cant find it..

I used inspect element and saw that is on postbit but i cant still located.
So do you guys know how to locate the css code to templates?

admin panel >> themes >> click on active theme >> global.css and other css files contents appear here
most of the front end elements style is defined in global.css (click on it and again click on Edit Stylesheet: Advanced Mode

edit: you can use plugin attached here to change colors in php code block

a word of caution: if you are referring to syntax highlighting appearing on the templates then it is better to turn it off
as it might corrupt your code changes. (admin panel >> preferences >> turn off code press)

im talking about this one:

in your admin Control Panel

Look t the top menu find themes and templates>>click on the theme your using>>click on Global.CSS>>>click on advance mode>>>click ctrl + F>>> type codeblock

well you see the php color has been setup through the template and thats why i have to find the template.

if you change the css for codeblock the phpblock will change also.

Ok I see what you mean now, you just want to change the text color.


Download the file I attached and upload to your inc/plugins folder then go to the admin control panel and active it.

Its was Made by Nathan and I edited to all of your text will be white all you have to do is upload and active it.

Can you take a screenshot what does exactly to see the difference when you install it and when not?

please

sample php code

function phpcolors()
{
    ini_set('highlight.string', 'purple;'); // Color for highlighting a string in PHP syntax (e.g. echo 'this will be purple')
    ini_set('highlight.comment', 'orange;'); // Color for highlighting PHP comments (e.g. this is a comment)
    ini_set('highlight.keyword', 'green;'); // Color for syntax highlighting PHP keywords (e.g. parenthesis and semicolon) 
    ini_set('highlight.default', 'black;'); // Default color for PHP syntax (e.g. <?php)
}

default php colors - sample image - before using the file attached by Detrition
