 * I want to set the background colour of my test site to green. I followed the 
   guide of this Spicethemes video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaX-IxeaOpI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaX-IxeaOpI)
 * But setting the colour via Customize -> Core Options -> Colors -> Background 
   Color has not results on the rendered webpages. Why is this the case?
 * My environment: WordPress 6.7.2, NewsBlogger theme 0.2.5.2
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbackground-colour-cannot-be-set%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * HI
 * Thanks for contacting to us.
 * You are using a full-width layout. The Background color settings will not work
   with the Full Width layout settings.
    - Go to Appearance >> Customize >> Global >> Theme Layout
    - Choose a theme layout, boxed . More detail See the snapshot.

 * Then Go set custom background color as your need.
 * Let us know if you have confusion.
 * Thanks and Regards

 * Great, this advised change of the theme layout solves the colouring issue.
