Per-page: yes, but not without modification. If you add “.page-ID” to any of the selectors in the customize.json file in your Styles theme plugin (e.g., plugins/styles-twentythirteen/customize.json) will cause that control to only apply to that page ID next time you change it and save.
You can find all available per-page and per-category classes available by looking at the <body> tag in your browser’s view-source option.
No support for background images yet, sorry!
Paul: I was a fairly good programmer using Basic in 1968, but have not done any coding since. I am not sure that I understand your instructions. I just started to use WordPress last month when I helped my wife set up her (and my) first web site ever (marlie-is-enigma2.com). Do you know of any plug-in that supports background colors on Pages in WordPress 2013? I am using version 3.8.1 of WordPress. Thank you. Jim
I saw a note on another string where someone was asking about how to have a background Page color in the 2013 Theme. The response was that the 2013 Theme is using a “full wide” page format which makes the idea on having a background Page color unworkable. But I think that statement is based on the assumption that “background page color” means something like a frame around a Page. That is not what I and some others have been asking about. What we are trying to do is have a Page with black text or other dark text which displays over a field of lighter color on the Page. Like black text on a light blue background. This is a feature that is common in Microsoft Word, Excel, etc. I tried setting up a page in MS Word like that and then copying and pasting it into a Page in the 2013 Theme but the background page color in MS Word did not transfer over to the Page in the 2013 Theme. Any ideas? Any plug-in that does this?
I’m not aware of any plugin that automates this very specific use case, but you might try using the CSS plugin with the below code as a template.
How this code works, where to put it, and how to figure out your own version: View Screenshot.
Example code:
/* .page-id-2 targets a specific page only. */
/* #main targets the content area within that page. */
.page-id-2 #main {
background-color: #009900;
color: #fff;
}
