Custom CSS Snippets

1 min read Updated Sep 2026 Puro Theme

Use these CSS snippets for small changes that Puro has no setting for. Add them at AppearanceCustomizeAdditional CSS. You can also use the SiteOrigin CSS editor at AppearanceCustom CSS, or the style.css file of a child theme.

Change the Text Highlight Color

When a visitor selects text, the browser shows its default highlight color. Puro Premium changes it to your Accent Color once you set an Accent Color other than the default. To go back to a light blue highlight, add this CSS:

::selection {
  background: #a8d1ff;
  color: inherit;
}

The free theme does not set a highlight color, so it needs no snippet.
