    Sorry, me again…

    I think I’ve coded the search box/button out of existence but can’t find the coding to re-colour it. Also, there is a purple colour “behind” my site, visible only when i pull down to refresh etc. Is it possible for me to recolour this white to match the rest of the site?

    Thanks again
    Steve

    Hey there,

    I’m actually not seeing the search bar in the HTML. Can you double-check the Search Bar section in the Customizer and make sure it’s enabled?

    As for the background color when swiping, this CSS should work nicely:

    body {
  background: #fff;
}

    Hi Ben

    Thanks again. It looks like I must’ve deactivated the search bar when I realised it wasn’t showing anyway, so I’ve reactivated it and it should be there for you to look at now.

    Unfortunately, the CSS doesn’t appear to have rectified the purple colour…

    Thank you
    Steve

    No problem, I see what’s happening.

    CSS rules override each other based on the order, and it looks like there is already some custom CSS setting the body background color. Here’s a look at that: https://screenshot.competethemes.com/ApuRwlZp

    You can delete the snippet I shared here and update the color code in the existing snippet instead, like this:

    body {
  background: #fff;
  font: normal 300 1em/1.5em 'Ubuntu', sans-serif;
}

    Thanks Ben, that’s worked!

    Did you manage to get chance to check the search bar issue? It’s there when I hover over it, but otherwise disappears…

    Awesome, glad that worked.

    For the search icon, try adding this CSS too:

    #search-icon i {
  color: #333;
}
