Not able to override CSS within IFrame
- by Madhur Ahuja
I am using disqus comments for my jekyll blog with some CSS styles overriden in my stylesheet and used to work perfectly.
Recently, disqus has introduced a new UI for their comments system which has completely broken the font colors. Since my site has dark background, I am trying to apply styles based on new disqus HTML structure generated.
However, it seems that none of my styles get applied. It seems that is because disqus is loaded within iframe.
Any ideas how can I fix the font colors. Example of the post:

UPDATE
Based on this question How to apply CSS to iFrame?
it seems that you cannot style a child IFrame cross domain.
I am wondering how it used to work earlier. Disqus even has documentation on it
