How do you edit post title background/padding

    I’m trying to add a background to my post titles. I’d also like to increase the background’s padding. And if possible instead of using a color use an image so I can round the corners. Whenever I try to edit the h1 background color in my stylesheet it adds a background to the post titles and to the sidebar categories… Why is this happening? What code do I need to just edit my post title??

    http://www.moviestinger.com is my site

    Thanks

    Try something like this:

    .post h2{
background: #000 url(http://your-domain.com/path/image.gif) 0 0 no-repeat;
}

    Because your Sidebar Also uses the same h1.

    If you want to make them different, you would have to create a new h1 style and call it h1a or whatever you want and call it from the sidebar 🙂

    I’ve added that code to my post and nothing changes. Also how could I make the whole post not just the title behind a background?

    Thanks

    I’m trying to figure out where to put the div’s on my header page so it puts the background around the whole post. When I extend the </div> down to underneath the comments code it breaks the whole page.
