how to neutralize the default theme and change background with easy customizer?

[Kam01]

Hello to all!

I would like my smugmug site to have black background, plain and simple. But I can't seem to get rid of the Default theme in my settings. Because of that even though my background is set to black in Easy Customizer, I'm still stuck with the Black and White default theme..

If anyone has any idea what needs to be done in this case, I'd appreciate your help!

Thanks a lot!

Make sure that all of your galleries are set to the default theme. Also set the all pages theme to default.

Actually what I would like to do is remove the white line I have below the navbar on all the pages of my website. I thought the line appeared due to the background default theme. I did what you suggested, but the line stayed where it was.

Any ideas how to fix that?

That white line is from the black & white theme. It's still showing on your homepage, looks like it wasn't removed. And the theme still shows in your CSS. Did you set both your gallery theme and the all pages theme to default?

I have my gallery theme and all the pages theme set to Black and White as a default choice, and I can't figure out how to remove the default theme, I don't see an option for that. And that brings me back to my first question..

I'm not sure I understand.

You have your pages set to Black and White. It's that theme that is placing the white line on your pages.

If you want all black, set the theme to default, not Black and White. Use the theme dropdown. Default is at the top.

Or if you want to remove the white line on some but not all pages, let me know which pages.

You could use CSS to remove the line and keep the black and white theme, but it seems a little odd to me to pick the theme and then remove the prime decoration for that theme.

Oh, I see now! I did not understand how the default theme for all pages works. Now it's clear, thanks!

I think I'm fine with not having that line on any of my pages. The only thing weird is that on two of my pages there appeared a strange gray line under the text . Any idea how to remove it?

Thanks!

Add this to your CSS to get rid of the line:
.gallery_10132587 #albumNav_bottom,
.gallery_10132818 #albumNav_bottom {
display: none;
}
Once you do this, the comments are going to float up into your description, which I don't think that you want. To get rid of that behavior - and assuming that these are both html-only galleries, add this to your gallery description:

<html>
your gallery description and html here...

<div class="spacer"></div>
</html>
I suspect you already have the surrounding <html> tags - if you don't, then you will need to add them. But if they are already there, don't add them again.
