Backgroundimage in blog

Support
#1

Hey there, I have another problem.
I choosed backgroundimage for the whole site, in order to have the image in the navigation-header (I could not find other solution).
Now I want to delete the backgroundimage for the blog-index. I tried to change the image and I also wanted to change the blogtitle. What ever I put in these fields (see attachment) is not shown. No alternate Titletext, no other image, no disable page title -nothing.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi there,

A blog page is not a page, any setting that you change on that page isn’t going to take effect. Wordpress will only use the URL Slug to be used as blog URL, but it’s not the same page anymore. So yes, the background it picks is from your Theme Options setting. If you wish to remove the background specific to blog page, then please add this CSS to your global custom CSS.

body.blog {
background: none !important;
}

Thanks!

No, that did not work. There was a big graphic on top of all.

Hi there,

Please try this:

body.blog {
    background-image: url(https://minteraction.at/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Hintergrund-mit-2-Logos.jpg) !important;
}

This worked. Thanks.
Another problem with the blog, which I cannot edit.
I would like to put a submenu in the blog instead of primary menu. This should work on the archive blog page and for all blogposts.

Where do I have to edit the menu?

Hi there,

Regretfully this isn’t a feature offered by X. It could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. You may wish to consult a developer to assist you with this. X is quite extensible with child themes, so there are plenty of possibilities.

You might want to check out some plugins like: https://wordpress.org/plugins/menu-swapper/

Thanks for understanding. Take care!

Oh wow! I have a Onepager with an extra page for the blogarchive. I cannot believe, that this is very unusual!
Do you have another idea?
When someone gets to the blogarchive the navigation does not work anymore, as the links in the menues change to the submenu.
I mean the normal link on a menu in the onepager is for example http://minteraction.at/#x-section-1
and when you are on the blog, the links change to http://minteraction.at/news/#x-section-1
That´s why it doesn´t work.

Do you have an idea to this? Can I edit the links in the primary menu, so that they work also on the blog to go to the sections on the homepage?

Hi There,

As you have a mixed menu of One Page Navigation menu and Inner Pages you need to create two different menus on Appereance > Menus

One menu will have the relative links as you have. this menu, on your home page, click edit page, and assign as your One page Navigation.

The second menu you will create and assign as your main menu. This second menu will have the absolute links(complete url, not just the ids)

Hope it helps
