Fill widget title with color in sidebar

To target the widget areas you can use:

.widget_text { border:1px solid #ccc; padding:10px; }

I just added a little padding for breathing room, you’ll have to see what works with your site.

.widget_tex is a class that is added for all your widget div’s.

in style.css of your theme, find the style for #sidebar h4:

#sidebar h4
{
  color:#151515;
  font-size:1.5em;
}

and add ‘background-color:#123456;’ so that the result looks like:

#sidebar h4
{
  color:#151515;
  font-size:1.5em;
background-color:#123456;
}

use your own color code.

Thank you, that worked. I was doing the same thing but I was working with the wrong header. Thanks very much!
