Forum:Wikia.css background problem

All of a sudden the .WikiaPage background settings appear to be broken on all the wikis I'm working on.

As a result, I'm getting some weird background colors (example, white background).

Has anyone else experienced this? It's been going on for a coule of days, and purging the pages doesn't seem to have any effect.

 * The DOM was recently changed. You need to put your background on  now, iirc.


 * per sanse's comment:

"Hey everyone, an update on the CSS changes for backgrounds.

We've seen that some people had set "WikiaPage" with a colour via custom CSS, which previously left the sidebar boxes and other elements showing the page colour setting from ThemeDesigner. With the switch, "WikiaPage" affects those elements too.

The fix is to move that colour to WikiaPageBackground rather than to make a change via ThemeDesigner (like this).

Please can everyone look out for this situation and help anyone confused by it? Thanks All!" --Tama 63  20:38, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

I had the same problem but managed to resolve it using the Theme designers transparency bar however the background image of the wiki is appearing incorrectly. It used to be centered with the page itself however this is no longer the case. The position of the content area is now determined by the size of the window and the left of the background image is always present. Does anyone know how I can change it back so that the background image is centered with the content area, making a symmetrical bg?--Soul reaper 07:11, July 29, 2011 (UTC)
