Changing the background colour of one page on my website

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have been trying to change the background colour of a single page on my website to yellow. I have used the page header code injection in the advanced page settings to add CSS to the page to change the background colour, however, it's still got a white background.

The code I added is below:

<style>
.Header--top {
  background: yellow;
}
.Main {
  background: yellow;
}
.Footer {
  background: yellow;
}
</style>

I think there might be an error in the CSS. I'm not a coder and I used a website to generate this code.

If anyone knows where I am going wrong, it would be great to know to change the colour.

Thanks

What is your site url, seems like the color has been covered by other element

Thanks for getting back to me. The URL of the page I am trying to make yellow is:

http://www.redtrainblog.com/home

I'm not sure what you mean by "the color has been covered by other element" can you explain more?

Thanks

Try

<script>
	#site {
        background: red;
    }
</script>

Add it to individual page code injection, there is a gear icon on Pages item, click Advanced on the popup

@RedTrainBlog If you use Personal Plan, add this to Design > Custom CSS

body#collection-576ad46c893fc053dd0c0a9c #site {
    background: green;
}

Also, your home page has very long content. You should consider adding a back to top button.
