Metro Theme – Header Image and Background Color won't change

[jrParticipant Post count: 2]

Hello,

I am having a problem with the Metro Theme, which I can’t seem to resolve.

 

Whenever, I try and change the background color, nothing happens.

 

If I add a header image,  and remove the header text, I lose the header image and get one large colored box across my header.

(caching is disabled on my wordpress)

I tried uninstalling and re-installing several times and got the same problem.

Has anyone experienced this?

I’m also having this exact same issue as described. Any help would be great.

Support told me to do this:

—————————

In your style.css file, find the following.
.header-image #title a {
background: none;
padding: 0;
}

Change it to:
.header-image #title a {
background: none !important;
padding: 0;
}

I just tried this and I’m still having the same issue. Nothing changed.

Hello,

I replied to your e-mail. I did clear out the caches before and after and the code is proper int he metro theme but still having the same problem. Also for the background issue its not  the same as what that link shows.  my background imaged works as it should but its the white part where my content shows that disappear randomly from time to  time.

This was taken care of through a support ticket and related to an ad network.

I had this problem too and the addition of “!important” to the style sheet corrected it.

2I have 2 Questions I’d love to have answered.

1. I need to change the background ouside of the content area  http://blog.contenttriggers.com/ (like in the demo for Metro only my background would be a solid color))

I am trying to change it to be F5F1E5 (Cream color) and nothing happens – its stays white.

2.  Can I change the posts on the home/front page to have the titles above the images in the Featured Image as well as in th images in the next row?

 

Thanks
