    Hi
    I really like the theme you have created it is really great!
    I want to switch the background color from gray/black to white but am worried that the blog post block are not going to be visible. Is there an option where the blog posts can have a black outline? or some other alternatives…

    Thanks!

    Sure, if you switch to a white background the posts will be hard to distinguish from one another, but you can add a dark outline to the posts with the following:

    .excerpt,
      .entry {
      outline: solid 1px #333;
    }

    That will apply the outline to the posts on the blog/archive pages and also on the post pages. The CSS can be added into the Custom CSS section in the Customizer, or a child theme if you prefer.

    Hi Ben,

    I just upgraded to custom background color but something went wrong i think.Also some of my customizations are lost (static logo) and some functions are not working properly like:

    1.Header color is set to light but is dark grey – is that how it should be or how can i change it to be white as well?

    2. Word count in automatic excerpts is set to 50 but if i set it up to lets say 150 so that there is some text visible from the blog post (that is what is meant to do right?) there is no text just expanding the width with no text.. how can i make it so there is some text showing

    3. The white background does not work on blog post pages can that be changed so it is consistent and white everywhere

    4. After purchase the main page has white background but there is this grey between blog posts – how can i remove it so its more clean

    5. Also im struggling with the picture formatting when i upload featured image – what is the recommended size of the picture so it will appear in full without any zoom on hover.

    Okay there are a few things going on here.

    In your child theme, there are some “uncommented” comments. For instance, in your style.css file, you can see it says “Logo static”, but it is not marked as a comment like this: “/* Logo static */” which is breaking your styles . This occurs a few times in the stylesheet and each needs to be removed or marked as a comment.

    Which upgrade did you purchase? There is no background color upgrade, only a background image and background texture upgrade.

    For the missing text, I can see the text when I visit your site. Have you sorted that out?
