solved How to change the background color? Sage skin
Can you tell me where I would go to change the background color of our site? We are using the Sage skin and we would like to change the color in the background, behind the "box" if you know what I mean. It's currently gray. see the attached screenshot.

Thats on line 18 of
/skins/jrSage/css/html.css
and looks like this
Change that #EFF5EF to the color you want. Its not accessible via the STYLE editor otherwise you would find it here:
YOUR-SITE.com/core/skin_admin/style/skin=jrSage/file=admin_log.css/section=simple?search_string=body
It will be accessible there in the next version of sage.
/skins/jrSage/css/html.css
and looks like this
background:#EFF5EF url('{$jrSage_img_url}/bckgrd.png');Change that #EFF5EF to the color you want. Its not accessible via the STYLE editor otherwise you would find it here:
YOUR-SITE.com/core/skin_admin/style/skin=jrSage/file=admin_log.css/section=simple?search_string=body
It will be accessible there in the next version of sage.
Not sure what you mean. Do you have that file open in a text editor?

So what are you doing when you say above "I get a page that includes all the coding but that I can't edit"?

With you. You're looking at it in your browser then, which is not an editor!!
To do this now, you're going to need to get into SFTP so that you can edit the file directly on your server - https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-hosting/2552/connecting-to-your-server-using-sftp
That may be a bit complex, so you might be better waiting for the next skin release so that it can be done it the skin's style editor, as Michael indicated.

Thanks, Paul - that's what I was guessing.... And you're right! Do you know when the next skin release is going to be? We are using Sage for the new site we're setting up and we hope to go live next week with it.
Michael will be around soon. Not sure what other changes he might have made or if the skin can be released yet, so maybe he will comment here.

Thought - What colour do you want the background? You are running a cloned version of Sage so I could patch it in for you.

Right now the sage skin is being prepped for JR6 so is not in a state to be released for JR5. Thats whats holding it back from the marketplace.
I guess you could adjust it in your meta.tpl
your-site.com/core/template_modify/skin=jrSage/template=meta.tpl
and at the very bottom find:
and change that to
Docs: "Using the Template Editor"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/3183/using-the-template-editor
your-site.com/core/template_modify/skin=jrSage/template=meta.tpl
and at the very bottom find:
</head>
<style>
body {
background-color: #615551;
}</style>

So I have more questions about the Sage skin.... Should I post those here or should I post each question in a separate thread?

Seperate threads make it easier for other users when searching the forum for answers.
