Your site is private. I cannot view it. I do not know which theme your are referring to so I cannot see if the theme you use provides a choice of background colors or if you need an upgrade. That’s why I tagged this thread with modlook in the sidebar tags for Staff help. Please subscribe to this thread so you are notified when they respond and be patient while waiting. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

Note that once you have the required upgrade you can use this link https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization#postform so you can create a thread that will appear in the CSS Forum where you will get the help you need with CSS editing.
You can also post there prior to purchasing an upgrade to get an answer to whether or not what you want to do can be accomplished via CSS editing.

Looks like you’ve already selected a white background – are you all set there or did you also want to change the main content background from light grey to white?

For the menu borders in black, add this to your custom CSS:
```
.navigation-main {
	border-top: 1px solid #000;
	border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
}
```

Thank you. I managed to change the boarders, how can I change the main content background to white also?

Thank you so much for your help!

Give this a try:
```
#page {
  background-color: #fff;
}
```
