Changing background colors in sidebar area

#color

Did you use a hex code there?

if that doesn’t work, please post a link to your site.

Thanks WPyogi, I thought I used a hex colour, but I think the colour I had chosen was too light.

.widget-area {
background-color: #E5E4E4;
}

This now worked, but there is zero margin around the widgets/headings and search box. How do I fix this? Sorry, it has been a long time since I have touched any coding so very new to css.

Here is my site so far it is still in it’s infancy. S

Looks like adding some padding to that same CSS will work:

.widget-area {
background-color: #E5E4E4;
padding: 10px;
}

Thank you soooo much. That worked perfectly, I thought I would have to change all margins individually. Next, I have to change the colour, alignment and font size of widget headings. I think I should be ok with that ??

All sorted here, thank you!
