    Hi, I'd like to experiment with changing the Minimum Pro background of all pages/posts etc to black instead of white.

    I've been playing around with altering the CSS and I think I've worked out a way to change the text colour, but how do I change background colour of all pages? I tried changing in the Dashboard: Appearance/Customize/Colors/Background Color but this didn't do it.

    Thanks. Chris

    Add this in Minimum Pro's style.css:

    body {
    	background: #000000 !important;
    }
    
    .site-inner {
    	background: #000000;
    }

    Thanks Sridhar,

    Are those fields in the current CSS anyway and I would be changing them, or is this code new code to be added? ie at the moment does the Minimum Pro theme just default to white.

    I followed you responsive slider tutorial btw so I have that up and working.

    It is your personal preference.

    You can either locate the selectors and change in their current positions or add the suggested code at the end.
