Primary Sidebar Color – Metro Pro

[yolohtzin]

Hi - I am trying to finish this site for Christmas. I would like to change the Primary Sidebar background to 0a0e11 - put the items (Removals etc.) in block caps and get rid of the underline. Could someone please help me - thanks so very much and Merry Christmas!

I'd use a plugin like simple css if you're not comfortable editing css on your own and add:

.styles .sidebar {
background-color: #0a0e11;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

and then as far as the underline goes do you want just the sidebar links to be underline free or everything?

Hi - I tried this and it didn't seem to change anything:
.styles .sidebar {
background-color: #0a0d10;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

Thanks - Heather

Hi there - try this. You are left with padding issues after changing the background colour - so I have popped a little padding in too. The .styles is only in the head of the doc and won't work in the stylesheet.

Take a back-up of the file if you are unsure - find this and change to....

.sidebar-primary {
float: right;
width: 332px;
}

to

.sidebar-primary {
float: right;
width: 332px;
padding: 20px;
background: #0a0e11;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

For the under-line try adding this....

#menu-new-menu ul li a {
text-decoration: none;
}

Let me know if it works.

Hi - I tried this to change the color behind the sidebar and it isn't working for some reason.

Thanks for any help!

Hi, I have checked your CSS and I can't see the changes. If you PM me I can sort for you. I can see you have WP-Super Cache, could you clear the cache and I can see if I'm looking at an old page.
