Want to change your XenForo background color? Click "Admin" at the top of your Admin Control Panel after you log in. Look for the "Appearance" section on the left side of your screen. Click it, then pick the style you need to change—most people just have the "Default Style" to work with. You'll see several style property groups appear.
Find the "Basic Colors" or "Body" section, depending on which XenForo version runs your forum. Search for something called "Background" or "HTML background"—it usually has a color picker or a text field next to it. Use the picker to pick your new color, or type a color code like #ffffff for white or #000000 for black. Hit the "Save" button at the bottom when you finish, then check your forum to see how it looks.
Can't find the right setting? The property might hide under different sections, such as "Styling Properties -> General -> HTML" or "PAGE -> Page Background." For more advanced changes, add custom CSS through the "Extra.less" template in XenForo 2.x or the "Extra.css" template in XenForo 1.x. You could add code like ".pageContent { background-color: #f0f0f0; }" but make sure you target the correct element.
Consider making these changes to a child style rather than the main style. This keeps your custom work safe during upgrades or when you reset things later. The steps above should help you easily change your XenForo forum background to any color you want. Just remember that different XenForo versions organize these settings slightly differently.
