Wordpress - Change wordpress post background by Category.

[Theldron]

Hi all,

 

I am creating a site with different categories, but I want the posts linked to those categories to have a certain background colour. For example if I was creating a sport website and I had categories for football-blue and rugby-red, I would want all the post backgrounds with football as a category to have a blue background?

 

Or would it be easier to do it with page id and post within a certain page would have a particular background colour?

 

Sorry I am not much of a web developer, so any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

The category slug should be appended as a class to the

html node for each post (assuming your theme uses

nodes), in the format 'category-[category-slug]', thus allowing you to target post categories using article.category-[category-slug] via css.
