    What color are you wanting for the background?

    Also, please provide the url of the site you’re working on.

    For which elements in Easy Discuss are you wanting to change the background color?

    The comments boxes? The overall background?

    Can you throw together a screenshot mockup indicating which element(s) for you want to change the background color?

    As this is a component separate and apart from the core template itself, “custom.css” will not work.

    It would be monumentally helpful if you could get your site online – because then I could tell you exactly which files to modify.

    Try This . . .

    Within file path —> components/com_easydiscuss/themes/simplistic/styles/style.css
    at line 9325, modify as follows:


    div#discuss-wrapper {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 green;
    box-sizing: border-box;
    display: inline-block;
    margin: 0;
    min-height: 550px;
    padding: 10px;
    text-align: left;
    width: 100%;
    }

    Of course, you can change the color code to whatever specific shade of green you want.

    THEN . . . . .

    at line 9766, modify as follows:


    div#discuss-wrapper .discuss-item {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 white;
    border: 1px solid #dfdfdf
    border-radius: 4px;
    position: relative;
    width: auto;
    }

    SAVE CHANGES – CLEAR CACHE – REFRESH PAGE

    Better ??

    Try This . . . . .

    Within file path –> /components/com_easydiscuss/themes/simplistic/styles/style.css
    at line 83, modify the “height” property . . .. for example:


    div#discuss-wrapper img {
    border: 0 none;
    height: 100px;
    vertical-align: middle;
    }

    You can, of course, play around with the pixel value until you arrive at the result you like best.
    (also, you don’t need the “width: 100%” property – so you can delete it)

    THEN . . . .

    at line 11589, modify as follows:


    div#discuss-wrapper .discuss-user .discuss-badges-list > li img {
    width: 50px;
    }

    Again, play around with the “width” pixel value until you arrive at the result you like best.

    Hope That Helps. 🙂
