Can someone help me fix my background behind templates and certain pages background. i’m using dawn theme and know how to change the background colour through themes settings but i tried to change the background for certain sections with coding and ended up messing it up! i can’t figure out how to undo it
Topic summary
Main issue: Background styling broke in a Shopify Dawn theme after custom code edits. The requester wanted the plaid background removed sitewide but retained behind the header, and also asked to make the homepage video smaller.
Key steps and inputs:
- Community members requested the store URL, password, and screenshots to diagnose. One suggestion was to restore the CSS from a clean Dawn theme if only CSS was changed.
- The requester provided access details and a screenshot highlighting the unwanted plaid background.
Actions taken:
- A helper directly fixed the site’s background, removing the plaid from pages. Afterwards, they applied the plaid background only to the header, sharing before/after screenshots.
Outcome:
- Background issue resolved and header-only background implemented. The requester confirmed satisfaction.
Notes and status:
- No detailed code or step-by-step instructions were shared; changes were performed by the helper on the live theme.
- The request to reduce the homepage video size was mentioned but not addressed further in the thread, so that item appears unresolved.
- Screenshots were central to understanding the visual issue.
Hey @arlingtonrowchi
Kindly share your Store URL and Password if enabled, also please share a screenshot where you want to change the background color.
Actually this is not complete Information to give any directions. Here are few cases
if you had made changes in CSS file. I suggest to replace the CSS file from the previous dawn theme if you not have any other changes in CSS file. Then go to theme settings and make updates.
If you share in detail I can answer you correctly.
