# Problem changing header background

 * Hello,
 * I just installed WordPress on my site & added your free theme. Unfortunately,
   I seem to be having problems getting it to work right. I have selected the gradient
   option for the header, but when I try to change it to one of the other colours
   available, it will not change. Just remains on the purple. While that is a nice
   colour, it just isn’t what I want to use.
 * I had originally installed WordPress in a temporary directory as I used to have
   my site in Joomla, but decided to test out WordPress first. I was able to make
   the changes when I had it in the test site, but once I removed Joomla and installed
   WordPress in the main directory I have this issue with making the changes I wish
   to make.
 * Not sure how to correct this issue.

 * Hi [@ggjewels](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ggjewels/),
 * Can you, please, give me temporary access to the WP admin of your site so I can
   see what’s going on and fix it?

 * The theme is now working for me with the addition of the customizer fix plugin.
   Thank you for the assistance in getting this to work for me.
