 * I’m trying to change the background of my blog posts and sidebar to white. The
   things I’ve tried so far end up changing the lower featured area on the front
   page white as well. I can’t seem to find the break between the container on each
   page.
    here is the site [breezy](http://wptest.breezymeadowsorchards.com/wordpress/tales-from-the-hill/)

 * Hi here’s the css snippet to do that :
 *     ```
       .blog .container > .row {
       background: white;
       }
       ```
   
 * Nice customizations by the way

 * Thanks that worked great. All the customizations are based on stuff I learned
   through this forum.
 * Is there a way to do this for other select pages?

 * Body tag holds classes that allow you to target specific pages, templates, taxonomies,
   search results, archives, etc.
    Replace .blog with body.page-id-XX and it will
   apply to the background of page with the id of XX.

 * [@breezymeadows](https://wordpress.org/support/users/breezymeadows/):
 * You have a small error in your CSS, and it is creating an unwanted horizontal
   scroll bar.
 * On line 78 of your style.css you need to replace
 *     ```
       .row-fluid .span3 {
       width: 102%;
   
       }
       ```
   
 * with:
 *     ```
       .row-fluid .brand.span3 { width: 100%;}
       ```
   
 * And, while you’re there, you might want to put this in for your page backgrounds,
   see if you like it better:
 *     ```
       .blog .container > .row,
       .page-id-29 .container > .row,
       .page-id-27 .container > .row,
       .page-id-31 .container > .row {
       	background-color: rgba(255,255,255,.85);
       	padding: 20px 0;
       	border-radius: 12px;
       	}
       ```

 * Thanks for looking at my code. I am flying by the seat of my pants and could 
   use all the help I can get. The new page backgrounds look much better now.
    Thanks

 * I just realized this doesn’t work on some IE browsers what would be the code 
   to make sure it worked on them as well?

 * I tried in the chrome and ie did not work.
 * in my case:
 * .blog .container > .row,
    .page-id-68 .container > .row { background-color: rgba(
   240, 188, 136, 1); padding: 20px 0; border-radius: 12px; }
