[solved] Edit view BG not matching Browser view [SOLVED]

Post by stanb17 »

I have an interesting issue. There is a teal colored background that makes it hard to edit certain text in the edit view. Oddly enough, this color is not in the browser view. See attached. The teal IS used as a background under/behind the content block, but not IN the content block. While it renders fine in a browser... not so much in the edit view in the backend.

I want to lose the teal in the edit view.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Search forum for "tiny background"...

That site still loads long after it's visible...

Sorry. It's not letting me load a 44kb jpg of the backend edit view.

The issue is not related to how it loads. The issue is that the WYSIWYG edit view of the page in the back end has a teal (greenish/blue_) background that makes it tough to read text. The fact that it does not display in browser view is also confusing.

What template or CSS handles the edit page view in the backend (might have been a better way to pose the question).

Thanks

You didn't search very well or long or something, I used that exact phrase in forum search and got a lot of the same answers as this has been answered numerous times,, you are getting the body background in tiny, go to tiny admin and look for anything that has to do with the background...

I could hand you the answer but then you would have to come back here and ask questions for everything you try to do with this system, have you looked in the wiki/documentation for this?...

Mark,

Yes. By the time I posted the brain had turned to mush.

The solution was to go to
EXTENTIONS TINYMCE WYSIWYG
Click on the ADVANCED tab, then type
background-color: white
into the Body tag CSS: section

Hit UPDATE and the obnoxious teal background in your editing view is gone.

Thanks

SB
