Change Divi Shortcode Popup Module Overlay Background Color

Written by Dan Mossop

The Divi Shortcode Popup Module lets you easily display shortcodes in a popup box, triggered by a Divi-style button in your Divi Builder pages. When the popup is displayed, the rest of the page is hidden behind a semi-transparent background overlay. If you'd like to change the color of this background overlay, here's how to do it.

First, here's how the popup normally looks:

To change the color / transparency of the background overlay, you can use CSS similar to the following:
.et_pb_db_shortcode_popup_popup_wrapper {
    background-color: rgba(0, 128, 255, 0.2) !important;
    opacity: 1.0 !important;
}
Note that you should leave the opacity at 1.0 to avoid making the popup content itself transparent. If you want to adjust the transparency of the background overlay, adjust the fourth value of the background-color rgba() part. The fourth value represents the transparency of the background color, with 1.0 being fully opaque and 0.0 being fully transparent.

Here's the result:
