Good morning

I am trying to change the content area colour of the main sidebar but so far I’ve not been successful. I can change the page area colour, found the ‘how to’ in the forum, but as much as I try the sidebar content area remains white.

I am using the Custom Sidebars plugin by WPMU Dev as I need different text in all my sidebars. I should add I’m almost a complete novice with WordPress.

Thank you

Hi folks

As a stubborn old man I could not give up, so this morning I had another go and I’ve done it! I used custom css and modified the code for the page colour. The element? I had to refer to was simply Text-1. Text-2 and so on.

Thank you for your kind assistance, unfortunately I now have another problem which I cannot solve. I’ve made a new post for this problem

It can be done you just have to dig.

Do you want the background color of the sidebar to change or the color of the Widget content.

Add any or all of these to your custom CSS and play. I think it will covere what you want to do.

#secondary .widget {
background-color: #fff;
}
.widget-title {
color: #222;
}
.widget-area .widget a {
color: #757575;
}
.widget-area .widget .widget-title a {
color: #222;
}
.widget-area .widget a:hover {
color: #7c9b30;
}
