Hi
After talking to a happiness engineer I was referred to this forum.
I would like to change the background in a slideshow from black to white. This is not possible even there is a setting for it. It applieds only to thumb nail grids etc.

So I guess a CSS action is required??

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pernille, many thanks for the link. Go to Customize > CSS, delete all the informational text in that window, and paste in the following custom CSS to change the border and background on slideshows on your site to white.
```
.slideshow-window {
  background: #fff !important;
  border: 0 #fff !important;
}
```
