default theme how to change color of white space

[marion34]

Hello,

I'm trying to change the color of the white space on the left and right side of the default theme. I had to reinstall prestashop and did this previously but cannot find the post where I learned how.

Thanks

you're talkin about backgrund.

change  backgrund param in:

body {
font: normal 11px/14px Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
color: #222;
background: #fff;
}

then you will need to define background for shop elements like columns, so add background:#FFF to:

#columns {
z-index: 1;
background: #FFF;
}

you can find these codes in:  /themes/default/css/global.css

Thanks Vekia,

I will give it a try when I get off work.

Ive tried but its making the main website changes to back ground color not the left or right side of the website see attached 1.

 

Also the alignment of the header blocks (2) are all out of alignment and not sure how to correct this.

 

thanks.
