How can I change the color of the email signup box in Dawn theme?

Topic summary

Issue: User wants to change the background color of the email signup input box in the Dawn theme footer.

Solutions Provided:

Two approaches were suggested, both involving editing the base.css file:

Option 1:

  • Navigate to Assets > base.css
  • Add CSS targeting .newsletter-form__field-wrapper .field__input
  • Modify the background property with desired color code
  • Remove box-shadow using !important flag

Option 2:

  • Go to Themes > Edit code > Assets > base.css
  • Add CSS targeting .footer__newsletter .field:after
  • Customize multiple elements including box-shadow color, form color, label color, and SVG button color
  • Also includes styling for the input focus state

Note: Both solutions use custom CSS added to the bottom of the base.css file and allow color customization by replacing the provided color values.

Hi @Olga_MLB ,

Go to Assets > base.css and paste this at the bottom of the file:

.newsletter-form__field-wrapper .field__input {
	background: #648B80 !important;
	border: 0.1rem solid #648B80 !important;
}
.newsletter-form__field-wrapper .field:before,
.newsletter-form__field-wrapper .field:after {
	box-shadow: none !important;
}

You can change the color code to your liking.
