Change background colour of section

[SW6]

I want to change the background of two sections on my homepage. There is no guide for the Venture theme on how to do it. Can somebody help me doing it? The sections are: Testimonial and the Rich Text

It is only possible by CSS and have to create setting in admin dashboard within sections to choose colors.

Hi, @SW6: 

Do you want to be able to customize the colors? or you just want to change it once?
The URL you provide isn't a Shopify store.

[SW6]

I want to change it once to light grey. Oh my bad: online-survival-shop.myshopify.com

Thank you, we review it and if we sent you a CSS code it will not work anymore if you make changes on your sections. We can help you with this task if you want we can send you an invitation to your Shopify as a collaborator then we can customize it for you.

Okay, I can try adding the CSS myself 🙂

Go to themes-> edit code, at the sidebar scroll down and you will find the assets/theme.scss, paste the code below at the  bottom of the file:

/* richt text */
div#shopify-section-1584104623209 {
    background-color: red;
}

div#shopify-section-1584104623209 .section-block.section-block--padding.grid.grid--no-gutters {
    background-color: red;
}

/* testimonials */
div#shopify-section-1584104599602 {
    background-color: blue;
}

#shopify-section-1584104599602 .section-block.section-block--padding {
    background-color: blue;
}

You can change blue and red with the color you want. If helpful please like and mark as a solution.

Best regards.

I have a similar problem. I'd like to change the back ground color of the image + text section. Can you help me with the code as well?

Hi, @JuliannaMarie: 

We noticed you already have the "image with text" section with a custom background; if not please add that section to inspect it.

[JuliannaMarie]

Yes, I solved that problem. Can you help me change the back ground color

Hi @JuliannaMarie: 

Use the code below on your stylesheet you must replace blue and red with the colors you want, padding and margin are optional to remove the white space between the last section and footer.

div#shopify-section-1586899291832 {
    background-color: blue;
}

div#shopify-section-1586536520191 {
    background-color: red;
    padding-bottom: 55px;
}

body.template-index footer.site-footer {
    margin-top: 0;
}

I'm having the same issue. I would like to be able to put a color picker for my sections. Like to be able to choose any color for any section. Is there a way to do that ? thanks!

[PremierStores]

Hi, @Stephanie073: 

Which section do you want to edit? What theme are you using?

Best regards.

[Stephanie073]

Hi! I'm using parallax theme. I would like to have a color picker so I can choose myself and customize every section. But for now it's the «my mission» and «my vision» section of the page about us that I would like to customize

thanks for helping!

[PremierStores]

Hi, @Stephanie073: 

It can be done by adding CSS code to the stylesheet, by if you want to customize every single section you have in your theme we will need to edit the liquid code,
then you will able to have a color picker for background and font, feel free to send us an email to assist you better.

Best regards.

Hello there, is it possible to change the background colour of the slideshow section on our homepage?

We want it to match the background colour (#343434) of the header section above.

Our theme is District

and url is emporiumworthing.com

We have just started so thanks for any assistance.

[emporiumw]

I've found a workaround. I added a frame around the photo colour-matched to the header section.

Thanks
