    Oh I wanted to change from White to a grey

    Oh and its the actual page colour for each page, not the web site background, which is set via the background option.

    The background is an image on your site. You should be able to override it with the following css:

    body.custom-background{
      background:white;
    
    }

    you can add this to your child themes style.css or to a custom css plugin. Thanks

    I’m assuming you mean the background where the main content of the page is then?

    If so, there is no setting for that because of the curved graphic has a white background to it and it would create an undesirable look. However, it appears you are not using the curve, so if you still want to change the content area background colour, you can add this to your child theme style.css file:

    #content {
        background-color: #ffffff;
    }

    The above is the theme’s default colour, but you can change the colour to your own choice.

    Thanks mrtom414 and Shaped pixels.

    I used your code Shaped Pixels and its working – I need to play to get the colours right but that ‘s the fun part – so simple when you know the answer. Again thanks for a great theme and quick support.

    my page is here http://www.firebirdclubofcanada.ca I have no website knowledge accept what i have learned in the last 3 days . Having said that, this color thing is the last thing I just cant figure out .
    . I have tried all the css codes I found for background change ..nothing seems to change because I can fix a carburetor but not this ,,lol

    Downloaded a plugin called theme tweaker ..I now have mt page backgrounds all the same color I wanted.

    Just one issue now to solve ..when I used this theme tweaker to change all my backgrounds to “TEAL” it also change the Hover color on the Menu Buttons on my main page to teal ..causing the entire button to turn to teal so you cant see what the menu Button link says when you hover over it …Can any one help ?
