Greek Yogurt theme issues. Default background colors.

Permalink
I'm using the core Greek Yogurt theme. This is my first endeavor into my own website. I set everything up first using the core Greek Yogurt theme and then copied it to my sitename/themes folder and have named it "modified_yogurt". If I activate the modified theme, all the content is fine. However, in modified theme all the background colors are wrong. Apparently since copying the theme I missed something because the modified theme is using the default greek yogurt background color, link colors, etc. rather than the customized colors I had before moving the theme.

Any help on which files I need to copy to get my colors corrected? Or which files to edit so my new theme doesn't use default colors? I just can't find where these colors are being defined.

I can't fix the colors through the Dashboard interface. See the attached. If I try to customize the colors through Dashboard, the drop down box to select the color for "body background" doesn't align and has wrapped onto the next line behind "site title". This is very frustrating. Has anyone seen a bug report on this? I looked but didn't find anything. Could it be a screen resolution problem on my monitor? Thanks for any help. I built my site on concrete5 version 5.5.1. Do I just need to reinstall it? see attached.

Have a look at the "typography.css" inside your theme folder. All the customizable colors for the greek_yogurt theme are defined in this file as far as I know.

Maybe this is useful, too:
there are special comments like below. This tells concrete5 that this color is customizable from the dashboard

/* customize_body-background */ color: #FF00FF; /* customize_body-background */
