I think I found a little hack which might not be the best solution but it definitely does what I’m looking for so I’ll document it here, and hope that if this is not a good solution that someone will chime in!
The default CSS for the Suggested topics area at the bottom of the screen is:
.suggested-topics {
clear: left;
padding: 20px 0 15px 0;
}
So I added the following to my custom CSS (I didn’t mess with the “clear: left”)…
.suggested-topics {
padding: 20px;
background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6);
}
This actually worked pretty well!
Here’s a before and after, on mobile:
