Hi

Can anyone tell me where exactly i can change the left column background color please? I have been looking for ages but can’t find where that cream color comes from.

I am using Joomla 1.5.9

Many thanks

Please open file templates/ja_mageia/css/template_css.css, at about line 1116, find following code:

#ja-col1 {
float:left;
overflow:hidden;
width:22.9%;
}

and change to:

#ja-col1 {
float:left;
overflow:hidden;
width:22.9
background-color: #ff0000; /*You can change the color value*/
}

Hi

Thanks so much for your reply.

I did the changes you suggested, but it only changes the color around the modules, in my case the main menu. the cream color still extends beyond that in the background of the left column (if the page is long enough). There seems to be another wrapper somewhere?

Many thanks in advance

Try modifying the file called mainwrap-bg.gif which is located in the images folder inside the mageia template folder.
