Changing Entire Site Color

    I’ve gone through older posts and tried many snippets of code, but nothing so far has worked. I’d like to change the color of my entire site to a soft brown, to resemble an old newspaper. If you look at this site, https://www.dollardreadful.com/ you’ll see an example of what I’m trying to do. My site is meant to look like an old Victorian era newspaper, so the bright white background everywhere isn’t ideal.

    Is there some code I can drop into the Additional CSS spot that would do the trick?

    Thanks for using Mission News!

    This CSS should work well to make that change:

    body,
.max-width {
  background: #f5f2d5;
}

    Please copy and paste that code into the Additional CSS section in the Live Customizer (Appearance > Customize), and it will take effect right away.

    Thank you so much, Ben! That worked instantly. I’m very please. Of course, now I need to replace some graphic to ones with transparent backgrounds so that lovely brown can shine through, but that’s on me! You have a great day.
