  I am testing out an old blog before I create a new one so that I know how to customize the appearance. I am using the “Forever” theme.

  The default background is a grey pattern but I would like to change this. I’m new to CSS….can anyone tell me how to change the background to another image I have on file using CSS or another method?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, I see this thread marked as resolved, but I’m still seeing the default background on the site you reference.

  You can change the background by going to Appearance > Customize > Background in your dashboard where you can upload your own background image to use, or you can instead set a background color.

  If you have any problems, please let us know.

  See this support document on Custom Backgrounds for more information.

  Thanks, I was able to figure it out but I appreciate the help anyway! I’m new to this so I expect to have lots more questions. Thanks again for the helpful feedback!
