How can I change the background colour of the page

Hello,

How can I change the background colour of the page (see also the attached file) from white to a other colour ? And is it also possible to display an image as the background of a page?

Thank you

 

Hello,

Paste the code given below in Custom CSS section
(Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS) of your dashboard.

Code:

div.blogpost-wrapper {
background: red;
} 

In place of "red" you can put your color or color code.
This will change the background color of the page.

If you want to put an image in the background instead of color then
paste the code given below in Custom CSS section
(Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS) of your dashboard.

Code:

div.blogpost-wrapper {
background: url( Enter Your Background Image URL Address Here );
} 

This will solve your issue.

 

I am having a problem with this code. I can set all my pages to have a color background but when I add an image it defaults back to the white template background. Thanks for your help.

 

Also, I can add a border to this div and can see that it recognizes the code. I have tried to add the full url, testing it to make sure the image is really showing up and it still defaults back to white.

 

Actually, I ended up figuring out something else. Thanks.
