    Hello,
    Thanks for your help so far, I’m loving your theme.
    Please I’d like to change the colour of the header on my site, and if possible, the page body as well, as I’d rather have a dark colour.
    Could you please help with the code for it, or any instructions on how to get this done?
    Thank you!

    Hello,

    Try to use the following css code in custom.css:

    .containerInner.clearfix {
    background-color: grey !important;
    }

    To create custom.css you need rename default.custom.css to custom.css in wp-content/themes/blanco directory via FTP and enable it in Blanco – Theme Settings, tick “Enable Custom CSS file”.

    Best regards,
    Jack Richardson.

    Hello Jack,

    Hello,

    As I see you’re already added code for page body and it’s working perfect.
    To change header background use this code in custom.css file:

    #header{
    background-color: red;
    }

    Regards,

    Hello,

    Neither code is working. I have added, and checked, but the page is still the same.
    Could you take another look please? My page body is still white, and the header hasn’t changed too.

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    Please clean all cache and then check.
    If issue is not solved then provide us with wp-admin and FTP credentials in Private Content.

    Hello,
    I flushed the cache and it worked. Thank you very much.
    I found that the header didn’t look good in red though, so I’m thinking of changing just the menu. What’s the code for that please? Many thanks.

    Thanks Jack,
    It worked perfectly.
    One more question please.
    I tried to change the header layout using css., but it didn’t come out too well.
    I want the logo in the upper centre region, with the search tab on the left. I got that to work with this code:
    .logo img {
    margin-left: 75%;
    }
    #search {
    margin-right: 70%;
    margin-top: 20px;
    }

    But the cart got displaced. It is distorted. I’ve tried to add this code:
    #top-cart {
    margin-left: 80%;
    margin-top: 10px!important;
    }

    but nothing changed. What am I doing wrong please?
    Many thanks.

    Hello,

    Please try the following css code instead of yours:

    .logo {
    float: none !important;
    margin-left: 30% !important;
    }
    #top-cart {
    margin-top: -20px !important;
    }
    #links {
    margin-right: -280px;
    }

    Is that what you want?

    Best regards,
    Jack Richardson.

    Hello!
    I replaced this with mine, but the cart tab was a cm higher than the search tab, so I added this to it;
    #search {
    margin-top: -20px;
    }

    and it is perfect right now!
    I’m really glad. Thank you very much, you guys are awesome. 🙂
