    Here is an example making the background color of the box gray:

    *To change the background color of the actions and comment box: 
    .sidx-container .sidx-social-search-box {

    }

  • You can change the border thickness if you like.  '5px' sets the thickness of the border and 'solid' defines the style of the border. 

    Here is an example of a 5px solid border:

    }

  • Border-radius changed the roundness of the corners of the comment box. The higher the number, the more round the button will be. 

    Here is an example of the border radius set to 20px:

    }

  • There is also a selector for whether the visitor wants to comment privately or make it agent visible, which triggers a new message notification. You can update this font using two codes.
