    I have this site: http://11.lindebjerg.de/

    I cannot figure out how to set the background behind the header Logo to white?

    When the site turns, for the first responsive: max-width: 1279px the site-header are then 100% width.

    I would like to have a white background, I cannot figure out how to get only white behind the logo... please see the screenshot. How can I change the css to make it look like this screenshot?

    Look for following code in style.css file. Change #8585885 to #ffffff in it

    /*
    Site Header
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
    
    .site-header {
    	background-color: #858585;
    	color: #f2f2f2;
    	float: left;
    	height: 100%;
    	padding-top: 40px;
    	padding-top: 4rem;
    	position: fixed;
    	text-align: center;
    	width: 240px;
    }

    Hallo Davinder,
    if I do so, the whole site header, incl. Navigation, site-description and more did turn white.
    But I only want the background behind the Logo to turn white?

    Now I got it right, I wrote this into the CSS:

    .site-avatar {
    	background-color: #fff!important;		
    }

    Thanks and best Regards,
    jesper
