Changing the colour of the Newsletter Subscription box where you enter your email address

Topic summary

Goal: change the email input background in the footer (Shella theme on Shopify) so it stands out from the black footer.

Progress and outcomes:

  • After the store password was disabled, CSS was provided and added to assets/theme.min.css to set the newsletter email input’s background to a custom color. The change worked as intended.
  • A follow-up request to make desktop dropdown megamenu backgrounds black (without affecting other elements) was solved with targeted CSS. One exception (“brands” menu) remained white; additional CSS was supplied and confirmed to fix it.

Current developments (mobile layout concerns, unresolved):

  • Screenshots were shared to illustrate issues. The helper requested visuals and the store was made accessible.
  • The user wants the mobile site to mirror desktop styling and layout, specifically:
    • Remove a large gap at the top of the contact form on mobile.
    • Show 4 product images per row on collection pages (currently 2 on mobile).
    • Use desktop-style dropdown menus with the same colors and “information tape” lines on mobile.
    • Make the footer match the desktop version on mobile.

Status: desktop styling issues resolved via CSS; mobile requests remain open awaiting guidance.
