There are few plugins when added to the sidebar do not have a white background . Just like the facebook comment plugin. How do I add a white background so that the black text of the plugins are visible on the site?
regular support don't cover third party plugins unfortunately. You would need to add some custom CSS to color those backgrounds the way you want them, I suggest to get familiar with some tool like Firebug to learn and target the correct css classes.
it's actually nobody's "fault". The free blocks setup implies not having a solid color background for site content as majority of themes have, so widgets that are not declaring a solid background will appear as such and you would need to force the background to have a solid color. Something generic to target all widgets as
.widget {background-color: #dd9933}
might work, although it could bring some side effects, better to target widgets specifically.
Ohh I am sorry if I sounded as if its the themes fault. Didn't mean it that way. :)
By the way I kinda worked on it and I got a background for that particular widget. Ya used something like that by modifying the code given for facebook.
Thank you for your help and reply.
PS - I am not a coder or developer. Just learning and playing with the code. So I may have sounded rude. Sorry again. :)
I suggest to get familiar with some inspection tool as Chrome Inspector or FireBug extension, it will help finding the correct classes names you need to target in order to customize this little things.

Hi there,
Are we talking about PowerMag custom widgets? Could you please post an example as I couldn't find it in your site. Thanks

No, not the PowerMag custom widgets, its for 3rd party plugins. The attached image is for the one plugin I am using for comments.
Here is a test post created to show you how the widget looks. http://www.thatsmytop10.com/test-post/
The sidebar has 2 widgets on it
Subscription plugin from Mail Chimp and Top scorer from Slick Quiz plugin.

But if these plugins used on a different theme has a proper background. Its the Powermag theme that is coded in such a way right?
Eg. even for facebook comment plugin you had provided a code ".fb_iframe_widget {background-color:#dd9933!important}"
So I am in doubt if it's the plugins coding?
