You can definitely insert custom theme colors and text colors in Rise!
Both options allow you to insert a HEX Color code to get the exact color you use for your organization. Since you have an RGB code, try using a tool like RBG to HEX to find the HEX code for the color you need.
While there isn't a way to change the background color of an entire Rise course, you can easily edit the background colors of individual blocks within Blocks settings. Check out this quick video demo to see how it's done!
Many thanks for the link to information. If people have sight problem, a white background can be too much for them so I would be great to have an option in the future to be able to apply a different background color for the entire guide.
I've seen a few messages online which state that editing the background colour for whole course will be raised with the team, but all from over a year ago and this still isn't an option. Having a grey background rather than a white one makes a huge difference for people with accessibility needs, so it's disappointing that this hasn't been implemented.
Can someone from the team please provide an update on whether or not this is something which is being currently worked on?
Thanks for sharing your insight on this feature request! We don't have plans for a custom course background color on our immediate roadmap, but we'll let you know if that changes.

Let me know if that's what you were looking for!
Thank you Alyssa. This is what we were looking for :)
Hi, we are trying to find the option shown above to edit the background color. Has the function been removed? Thanks, Michelle
