I would like to know the answer to this too. I want to change the background color in the page/blog area, not the whole background or sidebars. I can’t find the code for this anywhere. I am pretty familiar with CSS and a little familiar with php (enough to tweak my themes usually), but this one has me stumped. Please help?
Thanks!!
I did figure it out for my theme (Raindrops), but whether it’ll help you….
I had to change three settings to make it work all over, in style.css:
h1,h2,h3,.h1,.h2,.h3{
background-color:#1e1e1e!important
}
and
#site-title{
background-color:transparent!important;
}
and then in reset-fonts-grids.css (this was the main one, the ones in style.css were tweaks really):
#yui-main,
.yui-g .yui-u .yui-g{
background-color:#1e1e1e!important;
}
But I have no idea how much that stays the same from theme to theme. (Note: the color codes shown are the ones I changed it too, and I added the “!important” to make sure that it overrode the original in my child them so I didn’t have to change the main one each time.)
My suggestion would be to find the Firefox add-on called Firebug, its a wonderfull little tool that made it MUCH easier to find where I needed to change what to make it work.
I use raindrops too, and that did it. Thank you!!! I had been able to make the changes in older versions of raindrops but hadn’t found where to do it in the latest update.
Thanks muchly!
