Theme Companion
Companion is intended to assist users designing their sites without editing their original style.css files.
Companion’s features include:
- Editing CSS stylesheets that override the original style.css in the theme.
- Add custom information into the head area of your site/page for non-wpmu sites. – Does NOT activate for Multisite
Please do *not* copy the entire style.css into the editor, the editor is used for placing specific element changes. If you want to change the background of your entire site you do
body { background: #333333; }
333333 being swapped for the color that you want to use.
Notice that you do not need to replace the entire CSS element but just the portion you want to override / change.
