   theme in use on your website: [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/astra/](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/astra/)

 * Hello,
 * If you are referring to the following light-grey background seen here:
 * [https://pasteboard.co/aHEb2PvXDHhl.png](https://pasteboard.co/aHEb2PvXDHhl.png)
 * And you wish to “remove” that color like so:
 * [https://pasteboard.co/umkEv1wct2us.png](https://pasteboard.co/umkEv1wct2us.png)
 * Then you can add the following CSS inside the custom CSS textarea field found
   under **Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS**:
 * `article { background-colour: white !important; }`
 * Let me know if you run into any issues or if this isn’t quite what you’re looking
   for 🙂

 * [@jokes213](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jokes213/) it seems to be changed
   for me. Have you cleared your cache / cookies? You should always double check
   styling changes in Incognito mode as well (just to be sure)

 * [@jokes213](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jokes213/) I’ve double checked
   the added CSS, looks like you have it “commented out” and you also have the word“
   color” spelt incorrectly (browsers don’t read them with the “u”)
 * You’ll want to make sure you just have the following in your own Additional CSS
   section in the WP admin:
 * `article { background-colour: white !important; }`
