How to change the color of the file upload element?

Hallo Zusammen,

leider haben wir keine Möglichkeit die Farbe des Textes "Dateien wählen" in diesem Widget zu ändern.
Nicht im normalen Widget-Edit Bereich und nicht im Design- bzw. auch nicht im erweiterten Design-Bereich. Gibt es dafür einen Lösungsansatz?

Hi AviorSwiss,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our German Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in German, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again.

Now, coming back to your question, I understand you want to change the button text color because it's white, and the background is very light, so it's hard to see.

One solution is to change your form's color scheme or theme. This will change the background or button text color, but this may affect other elements of your form as well. It's easy. In Form Builder, click on the Paint Roller icon on the right, and then Colors or Themes, and select your desired color scheme or theme:

Another solution is injecting CSS code to modify the color of the text in the File Upload element. This is done in the Advanced Designer. Let me show you how:

1. In Form Settings, click on the Paint Roller icon on the right.
2. Click on Advanced Designer.
3. Click on CSS near the top right.
4. Click on the File Upload element twice.
5. Click on Color.
6. Select a color.
7. Click on Select.
8. Click on the Save icon on the left.

After following these steps, here is the result:

Give it a try and let us know how it goes. 

Amazing support - Thank you so much!!
