NEWB Help please

That’s actually an HTML5 tag:
https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_mark.asp

(not in CSS)

But it looks like you can change the color by adding CSS for that tag:

mark {
   background-color: blue;
}

Add that to your custom CSS – and change the color according to what you want — if you don’t want any use white.

in Chrome I can see the code that is affected but that isnt helping much
<mark class="count">(4)</mark>

it is helping – because you can now overwrite that in the custom css section;

.count { background: transparent; }

the mark tag seems to get its formatting from the browser default values; and your theme is simply ignoring to reset those formats.

You’re AWESOME! That fixed it! Much appreciated.

@wpyogi

out-of-context:
would you know where to find lists of browser default settings for undefined elements?

i.e. Firefox showed the mark with a bright yellow background.

That tag was actually news to me — LOL! Learn something new everyday around here ?? I just experimented with it in Firebug. I was kind of surprised that W3C didn’t have any real info about it – like the defaults. But maybe they are just thin on HTML5 as yet? I’ll look around – would be interesting/useful to know.

since you guys are awesome, and I have spent the last 3 hours trying to figure this out, I figured I would bother you again. My featured image on my homepage has a dot pattern overlay… and I cant figure out how to remove it. Here is the section I am referring to

<div class="homepage-banner">
    					    <img src="https://www.abishandmade.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/lineup.png" alt="" />
    		<h1><span></span></h1>
    		<div class="description"></div>
    	</div>

here is the CSS for “homepage-banner”

}
.homepage-banner {
  display: none;
}

Thanks again for any help! https://www.abishandmade.com

caused by this in /css/layout.css

.homepage-banner:after {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    z-index: 50;
    bottom: 0;
    background: url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAQAAAAECAYAAACp8Z5+AAAAG0lEQVQIW2NkYGAwBuKzQAwGjDAGNgGwSgwVAFCGAgUGpiTrAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC);
  }

remove it with this added to custom.css:

.homepage-banner:after { display: none; }

or probably rather better, remove it from /css/layout.css

Well played sir!

I hope at some point I can contribute enough to this forum to repay for all the Help I have/will receive.

Firefox’ web developer add-on is quite a useful tool to work with to investigate those odd formatting problems – https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-developer/

does anyone know how to reduce the size of the banner? And can I say Thank you sooo much for the other two bug fixes. I’d spent quite a few hours trying to fix this.

@hrpilz You can ask for support on your own thread.
