Hello. Using this post an example: https://limelightdc.com/test-post-03/

• How can I change the background color of the page that posts appear on? It’s currently white, and I’d like it to be #34495e to match the background color of my other pages.
• How can I get rid of the small text under the title of the post that has the category, author, and date. I only want the Title to be there.

Thanks very much.

Hello Kenny,

Thanks for writing in!

1.) You are using Ethos stack and this stack has a built-in design white background color. You will need to override the stack style to make it #34495e. In the stack style, it is using this CSS code to have the background color to white:

.x-container.main:not(.x-row):not(.x-grid):not(.x-div):not(.x-bar-content):not(.x-slide-container-content):before {
   background-color: #fff;
}

Modify the code above and insert it in Cornerstone > Theme Options > Code > Global CSS so that the background color of the posts and other pages using the default template will be overridden.

2.) To get rid of the small text under the title of the post that has the category, author, and date, please go to Cornerstone > Theme Options > Blog > Content and turn OFF the “Post Meta”:

Best Regards.

Thanks for the instructions. I had no trouble finding the “Post Meta” button to turn off that data.

But to change the page color, I can’t find the Code and Global CSS section in the Theme Options panel. Can you please guide me?

Hello Kenny,

The Code icon can be found in the lower right corner of the builder.

Best Regards.

Thank you! Found it and that code worked for changing the background of the page. Sorry, but I should have also asked how to change the color of the title and body text on the blog post page. Thanks again.

Hi Kenny,

For other color settings, please go to Cornerstone > Theme Options > Typography. You should be able to set the colors for the Body and Content and for the Headings.

Cheers.
