• helpThe background color of my website-cum-forum (under development) is black. I used bbPress to add forum feature in the website and then created some forums and one topics within it. To show the names of all forums I added a page and it its content used the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]. It worked and listed all the forums but placed them in a box with white background, making the names impossible to read. The same thing happened when I created a page that automatically shows all recent topics (used the shortcode [bbp-topic-index])…the topics were in white background. Someone please help. I could not find any option to change the color of that part. setting a new background color changes it throughout the website.help

    My website is https://www.theparadigmshiftgroup.com

    Can you install a Custom CSS plugin and then add this CSS:

    
    html #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-lead-topic, 
    html #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics, 
    html #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums, 
    html #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies, 
    html #bbpress-forums ul.bbp-search-results,
    html #bbpress-forums li.bbp-body ul.forum, 
    html #bbpress-forums li.bbp-body ul.topic {
        border: 0;
    }
    
    html #bbpress-forums li.bbp-header, 
    html #bbpress-forums li.bbp-footer,
    html #bbpress-forums div.odd, 
    html #bbpress-forums ul.odd {
        background: none;
    }

    Thank you @anevins.

    I used a custom CSS plugin and copy-pasted the code. This solved the issue with topics (in “Feeds” page of my website), but the problem with forums is still there and another problem arrived with it – the forum list is showing only one forum instead of two (they are named “medical” and “zoology”). screenshot

    I was wrong when telling – “and another problem arrived with it – the forum list is showing only one forum instead of two (they are named “medical” and “zoology”)”. Actually the page is showing both the forum, but the ‘Medical’ forum is still in a white background – you can see it in this screenshot https://www.theparadigmshiftgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Screenshot-44.png

    You can find my website at https://www.theparadigmshiftgroup.com and the problem is in the page “ALL FORUMS”. Please help me!

    anyone?

    The problem is actually in alternate forum name. My forums are respectively –
    1. Zoology
    2. Medicine
    3. Botany
    4. Microbiology .

    the white backgrounds are only on medicine and microbiology. not in the zoology and botany. so it appears only in the alternative forum names. Is there any such functionality in WordPress that colors alternate items in the list? If yes, this may be due to this functionality, so in that case overriding this function may help…but I don’t know how to do that. Someone please help. I am trying for so long.
