I'm trying to change the background color of a Bootstrap UI popover by creating custom popover classes to override the existing ones (e.g. popover1, popover2, etc. instead of popover). I know that this works for vanilla Bootstrap popovers (here is the fiddle, but it doesn't seem to work for the Bootstrap UI popovers).
When I apply the same method to the Bootstrap UI popover, it just shows a tiny, blank popover. All I have done so far is change
<a class="btn btn-primary popover-container" id="popover" data-toggle="popover" data-placement="right" data-container="body" rel="log-popover">Log level</a>
to
<a class="btn btn-primary popover-container" popover-placement="right" popover-template="'partials/loglevel-template.html'" popover-trigger="click">Log level</a>
loglevel-template.html
<div class="popover1">
<div class="arrow"></div>
<div class="popover-content">
<p>some content</p>
</div>
</div>
When I remove the popover1 class it works, so there's no functional issues on just getting the popover to display.
I like using the Bootstrap UI popovers more because you don't have to use any of that hard-coding template tomfoolery in jQuery (in fact you don't have to write any jQuery at all). I just can't figure out how to change the background color of the Bootstrap UI popovers. Before I head down the rabbit-hole I wanted to know if anyone else has achieved this, or if there is an easy fix (perhaps Bootstrap UI popovers use a different set of classes than the vanilla popovers). If it's a matter of overriding some CSS classes, that would be the dream.

This is unfortunately not documented in the UI Bootstrap documentation, and I (also unfortunately) took several hours to find this extremely simple solution, but hopefully this will save some other folks some time. You can add a popover-class attribute to the element on which you place the uib-popover directive, then style the popover accordingly. See snippet below for details:
angular.module('ui.bootstrap.demo', ['ngAnimate', 'ui.bootstrap']);
angular.module('ui.bootstrap.demo').controller('PopoverDemoCtrl', function ($scope, $sce) {
$scope.dynamicPopover = {
content: 'Hello, World!',
templateUrl: 'myPopoverTemplate.html',
title: 'Title'
};
});.trigger-popover-button {
margin: 25% 0 0 10%;
}
.custom-dynamic-popover-class {
color: red;
}
.custom-dynamic-popover-class > .popover-inner > .popover-title {
background: yellow;
}
.custom-dynamic-popover-class > .popover-inner > .popover-content {
background: blue;
