I don’t see that element. I’d like to set styling page background color and reuse it on all? ---

Hi, that’s not possible in the same way as customizing elements at the moment, but its on our roadmap. In the meantime, a workaround is to load on the head of your page a css global style with the css you want to be applied. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/c/c16c0666fd4b2a386cc1fb74151eed6344b1a55c.png) The inconvenient of this method, is that this will only be visible on the published website. An other workaround will be to define the color you want to use inside the design system, then create a section with this color as background. Add this empty section on your UI Kit, and only use this one for building your site. If later you want to change the color, just update your design system color. Hope this helps 🙂 ---

WeWeb needs to restructure to follow the same architecture on the market, which is flexible and good maintenance. The elements are limited and “outdated” ---

> [@aurelie](#): > > only be visible on the published website Why are you limiting this kind of way that lets the editor have a bad experience? ---

I tried this, but it doesn’t seem to work now? I get validation error? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/d/d0b78288ceb9c7caf98d29e0fd5d093967734473.png) ---

It seems that this [tutorial](https://community.weweb.io/t/tutorial-change-section-page-or-project-background-color/238) needs to be updated
