    This seems to be a new development – inside the block editor for page/post, it’s suddenly using the page style (for eg. background colour) as opposed to the default editor ‘neutral’ style.
    Is there a way to revert/disable this?

  • Hey, thanks for reaching out.

    If possible, can you please share some screenshots of the change that you’re seeing? I just want to be sure we’re on the same page before doing any deeper testing.

    Best regards,

    Hey,

    I’m attempting to reproduce but I’m afraid I still may be looking in the wrong place for the settings you’re referring to.

    Could you possibly share screenshots pointing to the specific settings you’re having difficulties with?

    Thanks in advance for the additional info.

    It’s not a setting as far as I’m aware – which is what’s confusing! Perhaps I’m mis-remembering, but I didn’t think Kadence showed the full page styling (ie. the content background colour) in the edit screen the first several times I used it. It only happens in the block editor (not the “old” editor), but I don’t recall it showing this way prior to mentioning it here.
    (previous themes I’ve used didn’t or had an option to switch it on/off).

    For example, in the screenshots, they would normally have a neutral/white background & black text when editing. Even pages with a dark background and light text showed with a white b.g. & black text for editing purposes.

    Hi @captainswallow,
    From your editor you can click on the options buttons (three dots on top right) then Preferences. There you can disable “Use theme styles”.

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks for the suggestion, @hannahritner – oddly, that makes it worse! LOL
    It disables some CSS, but not the background colour (though it makes it a different shade?!?)

    Hey,
    I just confirmed with the developer and there isn’t a way to change this. It’s something that WordPress controls. You could try reaching out to their support and seeing if they have a workaround.
    Let us know if there’s anything else we can help you with!

    Best,

    I’ll add a bit more clarity here…
    So this actually is a theme feature, I was mistaken above. Though it is something that nearly all themes add. Its purpose is to give you a front end feel while editing from the backend, so you know exactly what your viewers will be seeing. Does this make sense?
    The “Use theme styles” feature I referenced above is a full site editing feature. Apologies for adding confusion.
    I hope this brings some clarity! Let us know if we can help further.

    Best,

    Appreciate the responses & clarity.

    To be fair, a previous theme I was using had a specific option to switch the option off, figured it was universal. LOL

    I may not have noticed previously as I was working with Kadence on sites with a white content background.

    It’s certainly not a big issue – and the theme is great, keep up the good work!
