Topic summary
A user seeks help making the cart page background fully white in their Dawn theme Shopify store. The black background appears in the cart footer section.
Solutions Proposed:
-
Color Scheme Method: Change the section’s “Color Scheme” setting to “Scheme 1” in the theme customizer.
-
CSS Customization: Add custom CSS code to target the cart footer section specifically, setting background to white and text color to black. This involves editing the theme’s CSS file (base.css, style.css, or theme.css) in the code editor.
-
Template-Specific CSS: Insert conditional CSS code in the Custom CSS section under Theme Settings that applies white background only to cart pages.
Current Status: The original poster reported that at least one suggested solution didn’t work for their specific setup. Multiple community members provided screenshots and step-by-step instructions with code snippets. The issue remains unresolved as the user continues troubleshooting.
Hi,
To make the background white for the section visible in black, you can find “Color Scheme” in that section and choose scheme 1.
If the problem still persists, please share the screenshot of your backend to let us help you better.
As I understand this is cart footer.
If you like to make white this will be the result.
Do you like to make the color black?
If it is try this one.
- From your Shopify admin dashboard, click on “Online Store” and then “Themes”.
- Find the theme that you want to edit and click on “Actions” and then “Edit code”.
- In the “Assets” folder, click on “base.css, style.css or theme.css” file, depending on which file your theme uses to store its CSS styles. At the bottom of the file, add the following CSS code:
div#shopify-section-template--23793205215518__cart-footer {
background: white;
}
div#shopify-section-template--23793205215518__cart-footer * {
color: black;
}
- And Save.
- Result:
