 * Lovely little lightweight plugin which does what I want without fuss.
 * Only think I’d love to do is change background transparency – it’s very dark 
   and I’d like users to at least feel they haven’t left the web site page!
 * I imagine there’s some selector in wp-featherlight.css needs changing, but I 
   can’t see which one..?
 * Any idea which line and selector I need to attend to?
 * Thanks

 * It would be best if you didn’t edit the plugin itself, and also the plugin loads
   a minified version of the stylesheet, so it probably wouldn’t do you much good.
 * If you wanted to override the style of the background, you’d probably want to
   use `.featherlight:last-of-type`. You may need to use `!important` in your rule,
   though.

 * Hi, thanks for reply.
 * By ‘best if you didn’t edit the plugin itself’….are you referring to the javascript
   or some other part? I don’t see how I could change the transparency without amending
   one of the plugin files…which I imagined would be the stylesheet. ???
 * I did try amending the .featherlight:last-of-type but I guess I don’t understand
   rgba codes (always though rgb was just three colors!) or maybe I need to add 
   that !important tag to the rule.
 * I’ll have a go again, let you know.

 * You shouldn’t edit any of the plugin files directly, JavaScript or otherwise.
   If you want to override a style, you can add styles to your theme stylesheet 
   to override them.

 * Ooops!…….
 * Right, ok, I’ll try and add some style via the customiser.
