Using CSS How Do I Change Light Gray Around Section To Dark Gray On Ride Theme

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user wants to change the light gray border around a section to match the dark gray background color behind the text using CSS on the Ride theme.

Solutions Provided:

  • Section-specific fix: Add CSS code targeting the specific section ID (div#shopify-section-template--15836323741761__image_with_text_8CQYtm) with background: #6b6b6b; to the theme’s CSS file (base.css, style.css, or theme.css). This only affects that particular section.

  • Alternative approach: Another responder suggests adding custom CSS to theme.liquid above the </head> tag, though the specific code wasn’t fully visible in the conversation.

Hi @sharingsunshine

If this section only you like to change?

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--15836323741761__image_with_text_8CQYtm {
     background: #6b6b6b;
}

And Save.

Result:

If it is add this one code, same instruction.

div#shopify-section-template--15836323741761__f1552b18-6017-4231-810d-74e61da22c37 {
     background: #6b6b6b;
