  The whole page background that used to be white turned gray for some reason overnight. Can anyone give me any tips or pointers on how to fix this? I have the Custom CSS Upgrade and I’m using the Chunk theme. Thanks!

  The core WordPress code recently updated the registration methods for custom headers and custom backgrounds, and WordPress.com has incorporated those changes. See http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/20212/ if you’re interested in the nitty gritty details.

  This change also paves the way for flexible header image sizes for the custom header feature, but it may affect some sites that relied on using the body tag to change out the background.

  To fix this issue for your site, you can do one of the following things:

  1. Go to Appearance → Background and remove the background color set there.

  or

  2. Use “body.custom-background” instead of “body” to override the custom background set through the dashboard.
