    Hello!

    Is there a CSS property that needs to be adjusted or added to allow to have a white background, for example, behind main body of text?

    Please see the example page below:

    http://www.stgeorgeaz1.org/?page_id=555

    I'd like to have a white background behind the header text and anything I put in below the header. I know I could accomplish this via HTML code on that particular page, but I would hate to repeat it for each page I create.

    Please let me know if there is a simpler way to do this.

    Thank you!

    I may be misunderstanding the question as I am pretty new to this too...but if you change:

    Site Header
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */

    .site-header {
    margin: 0 auto;
    min-height: 100px;
    background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;

    and make it:

    Site Header
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */

    .site-header {
    margin: 0 auto;
    min-height: 100px;
    background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;

    Does that achieve what you are looking for?

    Gordon,

    Thanks for your reply!

    I think what you have just specifically applies to the site header and not to the main body content on the subpages.

    What I meant by header was really the title of the page.

    Take a look at the following page:

    http://www.stgeorgeaz1.org/?page_id=595

    See how there is a background behind the text? I accomplished this with HTML, but was wondering if there is something I could do in the stylesheet so I don't have to apply this to each page.

    Let me know.

    Thanks!
