There are three settings available in the blogazine Theme Specific page,

Module 1 Background Color
Module 2 Background Color
Module 3 Background Color

I've set these to odd colors in an attempt to find out where they are, I've searched thru the appropriate forum (club), as well as to perform a site search on Shape5.com to find any reference to them. I've found nothing.

To what modules do these refer? They certainly appear to be well-hidden (or an over-use of the term "module").

Also, hovering over the icon pulls up the less-than-helpful hint: "Choose a background color for the module x style." I had guessed that much...

Thanks.

--------------------
Edit:

The "documentation" for the template states:
"-MODULE1
This is the -module1 module style and can be applied to most most module positions. The color for this module position can be set in the Vertex admin area"

I had already setup the admin area (mentioned above); this produced the following in the HTML page source:

.module_round_box-module1 { background:#49D164 !important;}
.module_round_box-module2 { background:#ffecb2 !important;}
.module_round_box-module3 { background:#EEEC17 !important;}
(these are the colors I chose for testing, so that much worked)

I then set up three custom modules and located them in the above_body_1 to above_body_3 positions. I then set the Module Class Suffix for each to:

"modulex"
" modulex"
"-modulex"
" -modulex"

where "x" was 1, 2, or 3 as applicable.

The suffix was seen in the HTML page source, but the colors were not applied in any of the permutations.

How is the "-modulex" style to be applied? Nothing seems to work.

Hello,

We don't have a module x style on this template on the ones in the right position shown here:

You missed the part where I wrote:
    "where "x" was 1, 2, or 3 as applicable."

This was shorthand for
module1
module2
module3

I'm overwriting that site with the StorePro Site Shaper demo. However, since that template has the same options, I'll let you know if/when I get it running for a test.

The basic question was simply: if I place a new color in Module 1 background, for example, how/where do I use the -module1 suffix? No combination I tested worked. (See original notes.)

I think that I understand how module suffixes work, and I could see them applied in the page source classes for the module being tested. It's just that the color specified in the template didn't get applied.

Yes that is odd. I would need to take a first hand look at your site to a module that you applied the suffix to. All you should need to do is add the suffix of "-modulex" in the admin of each module.
