  Hi Cathy,

  It looks like you canceled and refunded Custom Design? Do you want to just keep it as is?

  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

  Thanks. I couldn’t make head nor tail of the custom design, a bit beyond my capabilities ;-) Is there a way to use a block colour behind the posts with my theme? The one that has a colour behind it is a sticky post. Is that the only way?

  HI Cathy,

  Unfortunately, that would only be possible with the Custom Design upgrade – specially the feature in which you can edit CSS.

  We’d definitely be happy to help you with CSS. We have a forum specifically for that with amazing volunteers and staff. Please check it out here:

  When you create a CSS-related help request, please make sure to select or link to the WordPress.com blog you’re working on and include a clear description of the change you’re trying to make. It helps a lot.

  To learn more about how CSS editing works at WordPress.com, see this help page:

  Please let me know if you have any questions!
