[pmwiki-users] Editing Background Colour of In-Wiki Fields

[Simon]

In the directory\public_html\pmwiki\pub\skins\pmwiki\
you will find the file pmwiki.css
This file contains the basic look and feel for pmwiki.
If you have copied this to create your own skin (recommended as otherwise
upgrades can overwrite the default skin) then you need to look in the same
file in, say
\public_html\pmwiki\pub\skins\yourskinname\

/* This sets the overall frame for the site */
body {
  margin:0px; background-color:#f7f7f7;
  font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:11pt;
}
/* These affect the main content area. */

If you are using a skin the the skin may well set the background colour in a
different.
