Background image for entire page

I cannot get a full page background to work.

I’ve tried the background option under page settings, but it doesn’t work.

I’m using Ethos with Fullwidth template.

This is driving me nuts. I would prefer to just get answers. Please, list out what the possible reasons for this would be. I have to present this site this afternoon.

Hi Omar,

Thanks for reaching out.

Ethos has background color as part of its design, maybe it’s the one that covers it. Please add this CSS to Theme Options > CSS to override it

.page-template-template-blank-4-php .x-main, .page-template-template-blank-5-php .x-main, .page-template-template-blank-6-php .x-main, .page-template-template-blank-8-php .x-main {
    background-color: transparent !important;
}

Else, please provide the URL that has this issue, maybe it’s due to javascript error since the background is implemented through backstretch library.

Thanks!

Thanks! That worked. Is there an easy way to add a parallax effect to this background image?

Hello Omar,

Thanks for updating the thread.
