Hello!
I’m using a static page for my homepage, and just have a featured photo. That’s all I want, no other content. But even though I have no text in the page body, I still see a white rectangle just under the photo, where the content would be. How can I get rid of this?
I tried making the content background black, from the info on this page http://catchthemes.com/support-forum/topic/change-content-background-colour-specific-page/

In the Custom CSS section I put:
.page-id-18 #main { background-color: #000000;
}

But it seems to have no effect.

The site is http://paulmcfarland.com/wp/ if you want to have a look. I also don’t want the footer to be that big — I want to add the Contact Paul with an email link in the bottom footer, but somehow it appears above the footer.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Thank you
Kathy

Hi Sakin,

Could you please take a look at the following URL http://www.omgstylellc.com? How can I make the whole background in black color on the homepage including the menu.
I’d like to remove white/grey color fields. Please advise me on image for the home page. How can I add a pic from the media library to the home page as a background?

How can I make the collection page not active? And I also need your help with removing comments/reply fields from all pages. I don’t see that option when I edit each page.
Thanks a lot.

@kdelacruz: If you just want to change that white to black color then you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.page-id-18 #content article { background-color: #000; }

But if you want to remove that area then you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.page-id-18 #main { display: none; }

@Olga: Looks like you have already changed it.

.home .site { background-color: #000; }
.home #site-generator { background-color: #000; }

Hi Sakin, yes I figured out how to change a color of the menu. What about a grey color footer that still appears on the site?

Please help me with the following. How can I make the collection page not active? And I also need your help with removing comments/reply fields from all pages. I don’t see that option when I edit a page. Thank you!

@Olga: Here is the css to make the footer color of homepage to black.
.home #site-generator { background-color: #000; }

Your collection page is not active. To remove comments and reply all together. There is two ways:
1. You have to edit all your old/current pages/posts and then manually remove it from your settings. See this screenshot http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798329843253/ which explains in detail. And for new pages/posts, you can go to “Settings => Discussion” and in “Default article settings”, uncheck “Allow people to post comments on new articles” and “Allow link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks)” and save changes.
2. If you upgrade to Pro version, you can easy option to disable all in just one click from “Appearance => Theme Options => Comment Options”

Hi! I have a similar question: I would like my printed background, but I find that it makes the text harder to read. Is there a way to have the content background plain white so the text is easier to read, but still maintain my printed background for the header and sides of the site? Here’s my URL: http://www.thebusybhomemaker.com/

Thank you!

@BusyB: Try adding in the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

#main {
    background-color: #fff;
    padding: 30px 5px 0;
}

Thank you Sakin! That definitely helped! Now I just need to decide if I like it or not haha
