Hi, you can do it just by editing a page, scrolling down to footer, and editing the footer block. Then select colours and a colour from your colour themes.

Or, if you want a different colour to what's in your colour themes then add the below custom code if you have a 7.1 template:

footer,
footer *
 {
 background-color: green!important;
}

Replacing green with whatever hex colour you want: https://htmlcolorcodes.com/

Or do you have a 7.0 template?

Hi there! Further to the above, can I have a different colour background for each page's footer?

Edit each page >> Add a Code Block at bottom of page >> Paste this code

<style>
  /* Footer background */
footer#footer {
    background: red;
    margin-left: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
    max-width: 100%;
    padding-left: 40px;
    padding-right: 40px;
}
</style>

You mean Footer, or this section?

If footer, use this code

<style>
  footer.sections .section-border, footer.sections .section-background, footer.sections {
    background-color: #000 !important;
}
</style>

Hey Tuanphan, 

No. I saved and reloaded. It just couldn't work. Thank you so much for your help.

 

Can you take a screenshot of "footer"? or you mean Pagination Section? Above code for Footer, not Pagination
