 * I have installed the ‘simpleX’ theme and want to change the background color 
   of the title.
 * Unfortunately I’m unable to see the place where to do this. I looked under Settings
   and Appearance – Editor. But: I’m lost.
 * Although having changed the theme I always get an ‘array-merge’ script which 
   I can’t correct or delete.
 * In case you need to see the site:

 * Thanks for your help.

 * You can change the properties of the post title in your theme’s stylesheet: style.
   css
 * Just look for
 *     ```
       h2 {
       	font-size: 2.2em;
       	clear:both;
       	}
       ```
   
 * and change it to
 *     ```
       h2 {
       	font-size: 2.2em;
       	clear:both;
               background-color: #f00;
       	}
       ```
   
 * If you only want the post h2’s to have your new background color change it to:
 *     ```
       .post h2 {
       	font-size: 2.2em;
       	clear:both;
               background-color: #f00;
       	}
       ```
   
 * The “#f00” is a hex value. you can use a [colorgenarator](http://www.colorschemer.com/online.html)
   to find the color you want

 * If it’s the header title you want to change. look in your theme folder for /css/
   default.css. In that stylesheet look for:
 *     ```
       #header {
       	background: #282923;
       	}
       ```
   
 * and change the `#282923` to your liking

 * Thanks for your answer and great hint, I tried it, but didn’t get the result 
   I wanted.
    I have to work on it 🙂 with patience….
