Background of events is black (not white)

[Scott Sutton]

I was changing CSS for text on an event and all of a sudden I refreshed and the event background was all of a sudden black. I deleted the new CSS and still have the same problem. It only shows up on the event itself.

Hi Scott

Can you send me a screenshot of exactly which part you’d like to change?

Some basic design modification tips:

1. Start by modifying what you can at Appearance » Customize » The Events Calendar.
2. Typically, don’t change the theme or plugin’s css files, they will be overwritten on updates. To avoid this, follow the steps outlined in Themer’s Guide
3. Use overriding CSS files, or add CSS to your site using Appearance » Customize » Additional CSS.
4. Use !important before a semicolon to override every css rule. It’s a brute force method, but works for quick fixes.
5. Please check out this Customizing WordPress #2 – Using Chrome Developers Tools YouTube video in addition to our Using Chrome Developer Tools tutorial on how to easily make changes using CSS.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂
