Django Admin - Cannot change <h2> color - html

Question

I am learning Django. I am customizing the Django Admin page. I have created a base_site.html file in my templates to overwrite the default admin html. Additionally, I have created a stylesheet that I've tied to it.
Here's my problem: By default, there is a div on the right side of the content with an h2 header that states "Recent Actions." I want to change this texts color, but my CSS won't seem to work on these words...
<div id="content-related">
<div class="module" id="recent-actions-module">
<h2>Recent actions</h2>
<h3>My actions</h3>
<p>None available</p>
</div>
</div>
I have tried each of the following CSS:
#content-related{
color: blue;
}
.module h2{
color: blue;
}
#recent-actions-module h2{
color: blue;
}
#content related h2{
color: blue;
}
Nothing works... Am I missing something?

Answer 1

If there is a CSS that's loaded later than the snippets you posted here, that can easily make the issue to appear (later CSS takes precedence). I recommend to open the browser developer console, and inspect the headline - it should show you which CSS style is being used.
If you need some more help, we'd need your base_site.html.

Answer 2

the following code should suffice for the CSS:
h2{color: blue;}
this applies to all future h2 tags on templates that are linked to your CSS file.
Otherwise, if you want it only for Recent Actions use this:
<div class="module></div?
And in CSS:
.module{color: blue;}
You are probably forgetting to link your CSS page. Use this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'CSS/base.css' %}">
Don't forget to add {% load static %} at the top of your html template.
I don't know why you would want to change your Admin page, because virtually noone except you would ever access it. If you are trying to create a portal for users to login view this documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/default/
If you 3 is not the case, you should open up your browser's inspect element and view the webpage. Also to save yourself a buttload of time in creating the new look for your admin checkout the Django admin templates on Github.
