Thanks for choosing Author!
There are a few ways this can be done. First, you can check out the Poet “child theme” for Author: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/themes/poet/. This changes some of the fonts and other elements on the site, but it does reverse the sidebar colors.
Secondly, you could use this CSS to switch those colors:
.main-sidebar {
background: #fff !important;
color: #27292b !important;
}
.main-sidebar a,
.main-sidebar a:link,
.main-sidebar a:visited {
color: #27292b !important;
}
That code can be copied & pasted into the “Custom CSS” section in the Customizer (Appearance > Customize), and it should take affect right away.
One last option is to get the Author Pro upgrade. This includes color controls for the sidebar background and text color, as well as dozens of other color controls and features.
I hope that helps, and please let me know if you need anything else!

Thank you so much for your speedy response! I’ve already tweaked some of the CSS with some of the other suggestions in this forum, so I will try that route.
