Background colour for text only
-
Hi! I wonder how I can make a background colour that only covers the text that is written, and not the full text box? Just like on your front-page, where the headline text got a white background behind the text only "Lay Theme, A WordPress Theme
for Creative Websites". So its like a highlight of the text only, not the full text box. -
CSS with display:table should do it.
Like:
.yourclass{Display:table; background-Color:#0000ff}You can also do it inline with for example <span style= ā Display:table; background-Color:#0000ff;ā>your text</span>
-
But with span you can also give it a background Color without table
-
Or to Header class like H1, H2 ā¦

Yeah, I used display inline and a background color.
Right-click your text element in the Gridder and choose Set HTML Class and ID.
As HTML class add:
mybg
Enter this css in "lay options" -> "custom css & html" -> "custom css"
.mybg p{ display: inline; background-color: green; }
Make sure to turn off the background color that you set in the gridder for the text box as this will not work with that one.
I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
