 * Hey guys, I know there isnt a ‘index.html’ file, but in chrome when I go to inspect
   the page ‘[http://www.warehousetrainingva.com/wht&#8217](http://www.warehousetrainingva.com/wht&#8217);
   and I look at #page-footer { < background-color: (currently grey, should be changed
   to transparent) it says that its pulling from warehousetraiingva.com:54 …. except
   there is no root file there.. when I click it takes me to the sources page, and
   reveals ‘(program) with 299 lines of code as the head html file.. I need to amend
   this file directly to add the transparent tag into the file, but I dont know 
   where it is on the server, nor if I even have access to it. could someone please
   help steer me in the right direction with this? opening the index.php file doesnt
   have that at line 54.. nor does the layout.css file in the theme.. Im lost. thanks
   wordpress people

 * Try deactivating plugins to explore whether any could be responsible. When the
   inspector tool says something like that, it usually means it’s coming from the`
   <head>` part of the document and therefore either hard-coded into header.php 
   or being generated by a plugin.

 * I dont have any plugins active. and yes, this is all falling under the <head>
   part on inspector. if its in header.php.. what should I be looking for? and it
   has to be part of wordpress cause its a footer-sidebar thats the 1/3rds splits
   across the bottom. sadly.. there is no direct PHP that I’ve seen to allow me 
   to access that directly. anyone else have any ideas? (thanks andrew)

 * > it has to be part of wordpress
 * Can you try switching to the default Twenty Eleven/Twelve theme with all plugins
   deactivating, to explore this hypothesis? Also link the site please.

 * if I do its gonna screw up half the site… cause there is alot of under theme 
   mods that had to be made.. there was alot pulled from the site, like removing
   padding and modifying alot of the footer/header space. the issue is no matter
   where and which file, I cannottt find for the life of me where the grey color
   code is going too, outside from line 54 in the <head> document. if I had access
   to the head doc, or at least the part where its pulling the #page-footer section
   from, wouldnt that allow me to modify it? all Im trying to do is give that whole
   footer sidebar area with the chick-fil-a pic and text and stuff a transparent
   background, or (no) bg so that it will show the bg image through it.

 * Add this on your Custom CSS or style.css(if using a child theme)
 *     ```
       .sidebar {
           background: transparent !important;
       }
       ```
