I am wanting to change the colour of my media gallery background to be white. At the moment it seems like it randomly selects black or white for the background – I want them to be all white (not the image carousel, just in the general view blog page) and would like to know how I can adjust this setting.

Thanks

Media gallery background is automatically chosen by WordPress depending on the colors in the images. The only way to change it is to use custom CSS that is part of Premium and Business plans.

I can provide CSS if you could let me know if you have either of those upgrades.

Hi Chaitanyamsv, I have the premium upgrade and using toujours theme and would like my carousel background to display as white. Could you give me the css code to do that? Also, I would like to make the carousel smaller in my widget.

Sure thing.

Could you link the post that has a carousel in it?

Thanks for helping me. The carousel is in the sidebar widget section. Here is a link to the site:

Add this CSS to the CSS Editor in the Customzier and see if you like the result:
```
div#widget-gallery-5-slideshow {
    background-color: #fff;
    border: 1px solid blue;
}
```
You can play with the rule by changing the values after : in the above CSS.

Give it a try and feel free to ask if you would like to adjust something.

That worked perfectly! Thank you. Now, is there a way to hide the buttons that hover over the images?

Of course!

Here is the CSS to hide the slide show controls in the secondary widget area.
```
div#secondary.widget-area div.slideshow-controls {
    display:none;
}
```

Hello WordPress designer,
I am using Museum template which is elegant perfect for my blog,
however on the about page when you scroll to the bottom there are
red and black text boxes and it’s the first thing you see when logging
into my blog.
is there any way to make them white and grey or white background
with black fonts and smaller.
thank you for your assistance. US

https://whatisbeautiful2.wordpress.com/ is using Independent Publisher theme so I presume you need help with a different site.

Could you create a new thread using this link https://en.forums.wordpress.com/?new=1 and provide your site address that is using Museum theme so I can take a look?
