[SOLVED] Change background color

[stevierayhall]

I am new to PrestaShop and would like to start customizing my store.  I thought I would start with changing the background color on the main page.  I saw a post that recommended changing the global.css file under the default theme.  I've tried several things but nothing seems to take effect.  I must be doing something obvious wrong and any ideas would be helpful.

 

Thanks,

 

Steve

as you said - you have to change global.css file. in line 53 you've got:
 

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

just change background:#FFF; to any other color you want.

Good morning

 

Go to global.css and around line 56

 

 

/* ************************************************************************************************

generic style

************************************************************************************************ */

body{

font:normal 11px/14px Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;

color:#222;

background:#fff

}

body.content_only {

background: #FFF;    (change this colour to whatever you require)

}

 

 

Hope this helps

it looks well, take a look:

 

i suppose that this is browser cache issue, please clear browser in your cache, or just hit ctrl+f5 (hard refresh)

Thank you!  I had to hit CTRL-F5 a few times for it to take effect.   I was using F5, had never heard of hard refresh.

glad to hear that i could help a bit in this case

it's common problem with browsers, sometimes it is necessary to clear cache / hard refresh

 

im going to mark this topic as [solved]

best regards!
