  I have dragged this widget over to the right column, but it shows up as dark on the blog, even though the other widgets are light.

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

  That’s the expected default behavior of the search box in your theme, but since you have the Custom Design upgrade we can change that with CSS.

  Just paste the following code into the CSS box on your site’s customizer.

  #searchform input{
  	background: white;
  }

  Let me know if that works better for you, or if you’d like me to make additional changes.
