Right Column in Blog is Black. How to Change

Support
#1

Hi Team –

I’ve created a blog on my site, but can’t seem to figure out how to turn the right hand column from black to white. I’ve searched the forum and can’t find anything that addresses this.

To see what I’m talking about, you can simply visit this page on my website. Thanks!

Hey Jamie,

In admin panel browse to Appearance >> Customize >> Layout and design and try changing Background color from Background options.

Let us know how it goes.

Well gosh darn. That was easy. Thanks!

I really appreciate it, Rahul.

One last thing – at the top of the blog, there’s a black bar that’s above the menu. I’d like to either change the color of that, or get rid of it altogether. Can you walk me through how to do that?

Thanks,
Jamie

Hey Jamie,

That the area for your logo. If you’re not going to add a logo, please add this code in your custom CSS

.x-logobar {
    display: none;
}

Thanks.

Hi Christian –

Thanks for your follow-up about the CSS. If I did want to include my logo in that spot, how would I do that? If you can just point me in the right direction, I’ll take it from there.

Thanks,
Jamie

Hi Guys – For some reason, the black background on my sidebar has re-appeared. If you visit my blog posts, you’ll see I’ve been able to add an image on the right sidebar, but I haven’t been able to get rid of the black background, even when I go to Appearance --> Customize --> Layout and Design and set the background color to white. Can you help? Thanks!

Example of what I’m talking about:

Hi again,

It looks like you’ve added the following code in your Customizer:

.x-sidebar {
    background-color: #000;
}

Please remove it to fix the issue.

Cheers!

Hi. Thanks for your follow-up. I’ve gone into Appearance --> Customize --> Additional CSS and there’s no code there. Is there another place I should be looking? Thanks.
