Hi! I’m using the CSS option “wrap” for changing the background color. But the comment section is still just white. Which CSS-Option do I have to use to change the color for this special area? Thanks!

If you want to change the background for comment box then adjust color code in the following css For comment box, background color and color you can adjust color code in the following css “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:

#respond #commentform textarea {
background-color: #fff;
}
#respond #commentform .text,
#respond #commentform textarea {
color: #aaa !important;
}

To change color for the comment section, you can add the following code to the style.css file:

.form-control {background-color: #...; color: #...; }
#respond .form-submit input[type="submit"] { background-color: #...; border-color: #...; color: #...; }

Hope this helps !

When you say style.css, you’re talking about the top level one for the entire WordPress website, right?

Hi Dominic,

thanks! But it didn’t solved my problem. Now only the textbox and the submit button has another color. I attached a screenshot to show you my problem: http://picload.org/image/cgroopr/commentarea.png

I have the same problem at:  https://askdrpower.com/question/asking-a-question/.
When I try to enter a comment, the background color is the same as my button.  I tried to add:

.form-control {background-color: #...; color: #...; }
