 * I use code block, but I find there is a light grey background color. I can’t 
   tell the code text in this background color.
 * Is it a bug? or did I set a color option somewhere wrong?
 * Thanks for help~

 * Hi [@freezhao](https://wordpress.org/support/users/freezhao/),
 * Go to Appearance → Customize → Additional CSS (the menu labels might be different
   in your language) and add the code below:
 * `.wp-block-code code { background-color: transparent; }`
 * Let me know if that does it.
