Changing background colour

[Sorcha]

Hi. I'm currently trying to customise my template which I purchased from templatemonster. 

I am having trouble changing the background colour. I have tried changing this in the global.css

 

body#cms.content_only { background:#fff; min-width:100%; max-width:100%;}

 

When I change the #fff, nothing happens on the website. 

What am I missing?

 

Thanks

Do you want to change the background of the whole site? Or just of a part (cms.content_only)? 

Did you do an f5?

Well a bit of both. I want to change the header colour from light blue/grey to black and the main background from white to light grey.

Not sure what you mean by an F5. I'm a bit of a novice!

FYI, your site would not load for me.

 

F5 will refresh your browser in order to see changes.

I checked your site. I tried to change the background-color through Firebug-Lite. Which is an application you can install in your browser. I use it in Chrome. 

But. I couldn't change your background color either. It is the first time I bump up to something like this. 

I am just thinking out loud. 

Iframes? Protected CSS? Wrapped? 

I suggest to send a mail to the theme-developers.

Ok, your site finally loaded (well, sort of). You have some issues that need to be addressed more so than changing the background color.

 

Nevertheless, to change the bg color find the following in global.css

#wrapp {
background: url(../img/bg_top.png) 0 0 repeat-x #FFF;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
}

Just change background to whatever you want.

 

Hope that helps.
