Would it be possible to get the CSS code for a custom content background color? As opposed to just choosing from light and dark?

Thanks,
Alyssa

Thanks for dropping by.

You could do this by adding this css at your Customizer > CUstom > CSS :

body, .site {
background: #cccccc!important; /* #CCCCCC color */
}

Or just content background :

.site .entry-wrap {
background: #cccccc!important; /* #CCCCCC color */
}

And sidebar background too :

.site .x-sidebar {
background: #cccccc!important; /* #CCCCCC color */
}

Or just widget ul, ol

.widget ul, .widget ol {
background: #cccccc!important; /* #CCCCCC color */
}

Hope this helps.

Is there a list of what x theme css accepts? I am basically new to it, I tried a lot of the “bg-color” and “background:” css snippets I could google and couldn’t generate results.

The above works for what I was looking for. How should I find the “.site” “.x-sidebar” and the “important;” information so I can begin customization of things? Should I have known that as “common css” (I guess I would need to read up somewhere) Or is there a place/way I can review what x-theme is using and what those parameters are.

I’ve found the areas where I can add “custom classes” but am still too new to understand how to use them correctly. A little reading up on my part there.

Any direction on this is appreciated.

You will need HTML/CSS lessons or tutorial, but that is beyond our support. Class name definition and styling were standard to all browsers and themes so it is not specific to x theme.

Hope this helps.

Is there no reference for these things? As a newb, I have to dig through a lot of stuff to find that…

You don’t need to find .x-sidebar on W3Schools you need to learn basic CSS like changing background, font, margin, padding et cetra.

You can find the CSS class index in our Knowledge Base

Thanks

That was it. I appreciate the help with it…

You’re welcome.

Those codes did help a lot, thank you. The only things it isn’t changing is the footer widget and the top navigation menu.

Could you provide a link to your site so we could take a look at this?
