I’m using ‘Profile’, and I would VERY MUCH (were it possible) to have each individual post show identically with the ‘Home’ page.
Is this worth even thinking about, from your point of view ?
PLEEEASE ?
:-)

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

Hi there, are you talking about putting a background to the single post content area like is on the main page? If so, the following should mimic the front page style for single post pages.
```
.single .postarea {
    margin-top: 48px;
    background: #fff;
    border-radius: 3px;
    box-shadow: 2px 2px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.06);
    padding-left: 20px;
    padding-right: 20px;
    margin-bottom: 48px;
}
```
If you also wish the pages (about, etc) to have the same style, then change the selector on the above to this.
.single .postarea, .page .postarea

This is what I see when I look at your about page and one of your single post pages.

They look very similar to the main page of your site.

But yes, that’s right ! I was hoping to exactly replicate the format.
If I remove your coding again … hang on a tick … you’ll see them looking the same as in your screengrabs.
Am I being difficult ?

Right now, I’m not seeing the white background behind the post content, or the page content. Adding the white background was what my code did.

Are you wanting something other than that?

That’s the top half (on my monitor) of the Home page, yes ?
What I long to see – but may be being entirely unrealistic – is EXACTLY THE SAME THING on the top half of the individual post, “34 years ago” …

Ah, the header area. Now I understand. This should do it for single posts, pages (about, etc.) and also for archive, category and tag pages.
```
.single #header, .page #header, .archive #header {
    min-height: 420px;
}
```

Glad we got that sorted to your satisfaction. Life is good, and had been wondering where you were keeping yourself.

Not bonkers yet. :)

Coming to momentous decisions about the other site. Have now restricted its use to what it was meant for, and shall be using it only fairly rarely. V. happy with what we achieved in zBench !
And currently v. happy with what’s achieved in Profile, too !
Never get sick or go away, OK ?!!!
Hoo-roo, me old china ! – and thanks again.
