Changing background color of post format

[vpmllc]

How do I adjust or remove the background colors assigned for the different post formats, like on the spa demo at

Spa by Themeco

The green background and red link texts are hard on the eyes for the different post formats, and https://theme.co/docs/post-settings only explain background images - but not background colors.

Hello Mark,

Thanks for writing to us.

The post format background color has been set from custom CSS code. You can check it in the X/Pro—>Theme option—>CSS. If you want to customize it you need to learn CSS and learn how to use the browser’s element inspector.

Here is custom CSS code that you can search in the custom CSS box.

.format-audio .entry-wrap {
    color: rgb(252,242,200) !important;
    background-color: rgb(225,125,74) !important;
}
.format-standard .entry-wrap {
    color: rgb(255,252,221) !important;
    background-color: rgb(181,186,52) !important;
}
.format-image .entry-wrap {
    color: rgb(226,208,232) !important;
    background-color: rgb(173,98,131) !important;
}

.format-audio .entry-wrap {
    color: rgb(252,242,200) !important;
    background-color: rgb(225,125,74) !important;
}

The purpose of providing the custom CSS to show you how to add CSS code to your site. Writing custom CSS is outside the scope of our theme support. If you need more customization, you need to learn CSS and learn how to use the browser’s element inspector.

Hope it helps.
Thanks

I know how to write CSS I just can’t find where it is in customizer. There is nothing there where you say at X/Pro—>Theme option—>CSS - I only see this:

/* Footer CSS */
.x-colophon.bottom .x-social-global a {
margin: 0 0.9%;
font-size: 20px;
}

So without simply adding MY OWN REPLACEMNT CSS CODE in the customizer - where EXACTLY do I find the above code you mentioned so I can EDIT the post-type background colors as I explained?

Hi Mark,

Sorry for the confusion, those colorful backgrounds are part of the nature of the icon stack, you can change or deactivate those colorful backgrounds under Theme Options > Stack and find the Blog Options

For headline color, it is under Theme Options > Typography

Hope it helps,
Cheers,
