    We are using the Automaticc Stay theme and just noticed the background color has defaulted to white even though in the settings it has a charcoal grey color selected. Please advise. Thank you

    Hi there,

    The background color only applies to the area at the edges of the Stay theme, where you can see the background image on your site now: https://mexicoluxuryhomesforsale.wordpress.com/

    There was a bug where that background image was being incorrectly applied to the area behind your site’s content, which was recently fixed — that may be why you’re seeing a difference now. (That area behind the content is designed to always be the light grey color you’re seeing there now.)

    If you’d like to change that light grey color to something else, you’re welcome to use Custom CSS (part of your Custom Design upgrade) to make more specific color changes to the theme. For example, you can use CSS like this to change that color:

    #page {
background-color: #444444;
}

    If you have any questions about making changes to your theme with CSS, you can post in the CSS Customization forum and the expert staff and volunteers can help you with that, as well. :)

    Hello. I am the owner of this site. The last request sent to you was from the lady we paid to help us build and launch this site. Since your last reply she has stated she can no longer help us. I unfortunately run day and night and have another business I have to tend to so that I do not have the time to run tutorials to figure out how to fix this problem myself. Right now, the area behind the menus (along the top and the sides) and the area behind the Logo are all one big white box. This is not what we initially designed.

    If I remember the immediate area behind the menus (along the top and the side) and the immediate area behind the page’s logo (Mexico Luxury Properties) were light gray in color and you could see the background between the top logo and the body of text. Without me spending hours trying to go through tutorials and pulling my hair out, is there an easy way to fix this issue?

    Hi there!

    If you copy the code that Rachel posted above and paste it into the CSS panel in your Customizer, you’ll be able to change the color of the white box without going through any tutorials.

    However, you will need to find the color you want to use if the one Rachel gave you is not exactly what you want. Here’s a tool to help you find the six digit hex color that represents the color you want:
