Hi, is it possible to change the background color in the sidebar or even add a border between the content and the sidebar? I would like to do this to all my pages in the Vantage Theme.

Thanks!

    Nevermind. I found CSS for the sidebar.

    Hi Jon

    Thanks for running Vantage.

    It’s not a theme option but you can resolve with Custom CSS. Please keep in mind that if you’ve edited style.css that those changes will get overwritten the next time you update the theme.

    Here is one iteration of how this could be done. Paste the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Vantage Sidebar Background Color */
#secondary {
background: #eee;
padding: 5%;
width: auto;
}

    Thanks! I made some edits to the CSS. As that code made the sidebar go the entire width of page:

    /* Vantage Sidebar Background Color */
#secondary {
float:right;
width:23.762%;
background:#f4f4f4;
padding:15px;
}

    Super, glad that worked out.

    All the best.
