    Hi,

    Does anyone know how to change the background color outside the .site-container of the Eleven40 Pro Theme?

    I created a boxed look with a shadow gradient but would like to change the outer background color to something other than #FFF.

    Thanks,
    Peter

    Changing the body element should get you where you need to go:

    body {
      background-color: #fff;
    }

    Wow Brad,

    That was simple. I feel like a real knucklehead for overlooking this 🙂 Thanks for your help!
