    Also if anyone knows how do I change the background of the Private Messages? I found out how to change the un read private message background but not the read ones.

      Editor: you can try adding this css via the style section of Site Builder:
      Code:
      .b-editor .cke_wysiwyg_frame, .b-editor .cke_wysiwyg_div {
      background: #xxxxxx
      }
      Change 'xxxxxx' to your chosen colour.
      This is unsupported though, as it's customisation.

      The background of PMs is the same as the background of posts basically.

        I have the posts background changed to a dark grey with white text and its the text entry spot and read PM messages giving me the trouble to making it work.

        Thanks for the CSS work around to try, I will probably hold off until I can figure out something for the read PM messages or else it still won't really work.

          Probably could do with a screenshot of the PM area you want to change.

            Here is the PM thing I am talking about. The white area does not show the white text for the read PM's but as you can see its fine for the unread PM's. The post in the rest of the forum in the threads are working as well with a darker background. I just can't find a setting to change for the Read PM's themselves.

            Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.

            ETA: when I actually open the read messages its fine like you said just not on the inbox screen showing list.

              Ok, that's hard coded so you'll need to add this to the css section of site builder:
              Code:
              .private-message-widget .message-list .message-item {
                  background:#xxxxxx;
              }
              Change 'xxxxxx' to the colour you want.

                How do I get to the CSS of site builder? I just want to confirm as well that it will only effect a specific style I want to change and not all of them correct?

                  It affects whichever style you choose to apply it to...there's a dropdown.
