      Can anyone help me
      I have a fade, on my compliments background. The text is black.
      The problem is, that the fade is fully across the screen, from side to side. I would like it to fit the length of the compliment text only.
      This is my custom css contents
      body {
      color: #000;
      }

      .dimmed {
      color: #000;
      }

      .normal {
      color: #000;
      }

      .bright {
      color: #000;
      }

      .module.clock {
      background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
      border-radius:8px;
      padding:8px;
      }

      .module.compliments {
      background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
      border-radius:8px;
      padding:8px;
      }

      .module.calendar {
      background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
      border-radius:8px;
      padding:8px;
      }

      .module.newsfeed {
      background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
      border-radius:8px;
      padding:8px;
      }
      Also, how do I mark a previous post as solved ?

        @TamP said in Fit background fade to text:

        .module.compliments {
        background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
        border-radius:8px;
        padding:8px;
        }

        Without having checked for myself, try this:

        .module.compliments div{
          background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
          border-radius:8px;
          padding:8px;
        }
        

        or

        .module.compliments span{
          background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
          border-radius:8px;
          padding:8px;
        }
        

        You need to reference not the module itself but the text container the is being created by the getdom method inside the module.
        There is a wrapper div and a span in this div.

          @lavolp3 Thanks for that.
          Out of curiosity I will give it a try

          I have just this minute managed to get what wanted by positioning the module newsfeed by changing it to center instead of bottom bar
          module: “newsfeed”,
          //position: “bottom_bar”,
          position: “bottom_center”,

          and the complimentets I changed to center. Although this is top center, I am happy with that
