 * Hi! Thanks for the great plugin.
 * Is it possible to change the background colour for the entire calendar (to black)?
 * The dark theme shortcode [piecal theme=”dark”] only changes the events colour,
   and overall the plugin still looks out of place on our dark background website.

 * Hey [@shiksa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shiksa/), thanks for the kind
   words!

 * There are two easy options to do this:
    - Put the shortcode inside of a container and change the background color on
      the container. The exact process will depend on if you’re using a page builder,
      custom blocks, vanilla Gutenberg, etc…
    - OR, you can target .piecal-wrapper with some custom CSS and set its background
      color:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       .piecal-wrapper {
           background: black;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope this helps!
