How to change the background color in ZenCart

Changing the background of your ZenCart store is super simple.

changebackgroundcolor

First you will need to open the stylesheet.css file or your template.

If you are using the default green template that comes with ZenCart, the stylesheet.css file is located here:

PATH_TO_ZENCART/includes/templates/classic/css

PATH_TO_ZENCART = wherever the ZenCart files are located on your server.

Using either Notepad or WordPad, open this file and locate the following line:

body {
margin: 0;
font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 62.5%;
color: #000000;
background-color: #e5edf5;
}

Change the following line to your desired color:

background-color: #e5edf5;

Save the file and upload to your server.

That’s it!
