Remove black background

When I paste the link on my Canva website, the logos and animation are perfect but there is a black rectangule behind them. See the image :

Hi there, @Joao_Vieira and welcome aboard :waving_hand:

Could you please send me a link to the Canva page, where the black background appears? I’ll be happy to check it for you :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello Max,

Thanks!
The page is www.vieiraoptical.com, you will find the social media icons at the bottom.

BTW, the Google widget with the review count has the same problem - I’ve used white rectangles to hide the black background :

Obrigado
João Vieira

Hi there, @Joao_Vieira :waving_hand:

Thanks for sharing the link!

I’ve checked your widgets and both Google Reviews and Social Media Icons don’t have a black background now:


Is it because you’ve added the white rectangles to both widgets? If so, could you please elaborate on what you mean under the white rectangles?

On my Windows computer and Android phone it continues there - using Chrome on both, not sure if it makes any difference.

Here’s a photo of both the Social Media Icons on my computer and the Google Reviews Icon without the white rectangules, on the Canva editor :

Just to confirm, did you remove the white rectangles only in the editor or from the published website version too?

Only from the editor, if useful I can publish for you to see

Hello ! Sorry for my late response.

Hi there, @Joao_Vieira :waving_hand:

I’ve checked your website and don’t see the black backgrounds there:



To investigate the issue, we need to check the live page, where those black backgrounds show up. Could you please provide us with a link to this page?

Funny. When I post the link, it changes. Heres a image of what I see :

Our devs also checked your website and weren’t able to replicate the issue.

Could you please try to check your website in a different browser/incognito mode and let me know if the issue still persists?

Yes, same problem - both on incognito Firefox and Chrome. Opera too :

You’re using the dark theme in all your browsers, right?

If so, please try to add this code to the Custom CSS section of each widget, where this issue occurs:

.global-styles,
:root {
color-scheme: light !important;
}

Please try it out and let me know if it helped :slightly_smiling_face:
