changing post background color

Hello 1afes1.

I’m sorry that you are having trouble. I’d like to help if I can.

Would you please tell us more about what you have done so far; what tools you are using, where you are making the changes and how, etc?
Are you editing your ‘child’ theme?

Thank you! I am using page builder to make the pages, so I can’t just change the background from the page itself (I think). I tried using the above code in the CSS Stylesheet Editor. Is that the right thing to do? Is there anything else that you would like to know?

I don’t know very much about how to do this so anything you know would be super helpful!

It sounds as though you are building pages outside of WordPress. Is this
correct? Would it be easier just build them within WordPress?
Also, your browser should have a tool called ‘Inspect Element’. By using
your mouse and rte-click, you should be able to scroll to the section that you want to change. There was a post about 2 years ago that gave this instruction, but you are following that instruction.

I am not familiar with using ‘page builder’ for adding posts and pages or why it is a better solution. There has to be something going on in the background of WordPress that makes it all come together. Are you unable to build pages within WordPress? It seems to be an unnecessary step you are taking to accomplish the same task. That1s what I would recommend.

I will monitor this issue and see if someone else has a better solution.
And if not I will help you look into the issue further.

Here is the link to the post I spoke of above:

I was able to figure it out using ‘Inspect Element’ tool! Thank you so much for your help!

Glad I could help. Have a great weekend.
