I can't get rid of this black padding...

joejr

On the site: http://sentinelasset.wpengine.com/  I'm using a boxed layout with a royal blue background.  I have the grid size set to 1252 but there is a black border around my grid and only a small frame of the background color around the edges of the browser.  I can't figure out how to get rid of the black.

Help appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello,

Did you solve the problem? I do not see any black padding on your body container.

Thanks

No, I had switched it to full width for last night so my client could take a look without seeing the black box.  I just switched it back to boxed so the black padding is there.

at one point, the blue background  went all the way to the boxed layout.  Now there is that black border and I can't figure out where that code is that's causing it.  It appears to be something in the css with margins but I'm not sure.

This is your body background color, you can change it in the Theme Options > Colors > General

Actually not.  My background color is blue.  You can see the blue around the outside edge of the screen and depending on how wide you size your browser, the black changes size but the blue stays constant.

https://prnt.sc/oq20mv . small window size and you can see the blue background

https://prnt.sc/oq21g6 . slightly larger and the black shows up

https://prnt.sc/oq22eh . Larger still and now there's more black.  

It changes it's coverage over the blue background in a responsive way

Paste that code into the Theme Options > Custom CSS & JS > CSS

body{
	background:transparent !important;
}

Thanks
