    I am trying to create a color background block behind my text using the paragraph block. I would like it to span the entire width of the page.

    Your instructions are as follows:

    Paragraph Block

    I am not finding a gear icon to customize the background, just a side column that allows me to color the text.

    How can I do this? Thanks.

    Guess the theme determines whether you can go full width or not.

    Hi there,

    Yes, you’re right, the width of the main area is determined by the theme. However, you can adjust that with the use of some CSS code. Custom CSS is a feature included in the Premium, Business, and eCommerce plans and therefore you first need to upgrade to one of those plans before using it. You can read more about it here:

    If you decide to upgrade we can provide you with the necessary CSS code.
