Change color of contact form entry fields?

You can do it by editing CSS stylesheet in your theme. Add this to your theme’s stylesheet:

.wpcf7 input[type="text"], .wpcf7 textarea {
    background-color: red;
}

Hmmm. That didn’t change anything at all. Was I supposed to just paste it in at the bottom or do I need to add it somewhere specific? I found this block of code in the style sheet:

.wpcf7-form { font-weight: bold }
.wpcf7-form span.wpcf7-form-control-wrap { display: block; margin-top: 5px; position: relative; }
.wpcf7-form input[type=”submit”] { margin-top: 0 }
.wpcf7-form .ajax-loader { display: none }
.wpcf7-form p { margin: 0 0 15px }
.wpcf7-form p:last-of-type { margin: 0 }
div.wpcf7-validation-errors, span.wpcf7-not-valid-tip { background-color: #FFFFFF; border: medium none !important; border-radius: 4px 4px 4px 4px; box-shadow: 4px 4px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); color: #606060; padding: 10px 25px; text-align: center; margin: 0; }
div.wpcf7-validation-errors { margin: 25px 0 0 }
span.wpcf7-not-valid-tip { float: left; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; }
.post-type { background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #BBBBBB; border-radius: 4px 4px 4px 4px; color: #FFFFFF; display: inline-block; float: right; font-weight: 600; margin: -70px 0 10px; padding: 0 8px; text-transform: uppercase; }

What would I change if I wanted the background to be pale gray instead of white?

Thanks for trying to help!

P.S. I also tried replacing #FFFFFF with #dbdbdb in the code above, but nothing changed then, either. ??

Can I check the site?

That would be great. It’s https://www.shaeirving.com.

Thanks again.

It should work. Add the style rule at the bottom of the theme’s style.css.

It did work. I was too literal. I pasted in the code you gave me above, but it doesn’t have a # sign. I added that and it works fine. Thank you again for your help.
