    Hello all,

    Installed Simple Custom CSS and followed directions on old posts about adding:

    .testimonials {
    background: #336699;
    }

    But this will not work. Original mustard yellow remains in the testimonials widget on my theme (Zerif lite). Anyone have any other ideas?

    My site: http://www.pronetlogistics.com

    Thanks in advance,

    Try “testimonial”, singular:

    .testimonial {
  background: #336699;
}

    Hello, thanks for replying. Tried that and nothing happens, also tried the # instead of the period before testimonial(s). Same result.

    Thanks,

    Here is following code is showing in your style.css

    .testimonial {
	background: #D0BC6F;
	padding-bottom: 90px;
}

    file is located wp-content / themes / zerif-lite / style.css

    you can modifiy according to your specified color.

    I checked your site at 11:28 am Mountain time and I still see “testimonials” (plural) in your custom CSS plugin. Are you using a caching plugin or is your host caching your site? If so, you may need to temporarily disable the plugin and flush the cache and/or force-refresh your browser before you’ll see any changes.

    Also, you shouldn’t edit the theme’s stylesheet directly, as you’ll lose those changes if the theme is ever updated in the future, to fix bugs or security issues or to add new features. Better to use a custom CSS plugin, like you’re already doing.

    stephencottontail -Thank you for following up to try and resolve this for me!

    So I followed your steps and still no change. Disabled the plugin “Simple Custom CSS” and clicked on “Flush Cache”. Then went back and activated the plugin and added code with updated to “.testimonial” (singular). Still not working, seems to work for everyone else…

    Seems that by flushing the cache it worked! Going to keep tweaking the color until I settle on one.

    Thanks again!
