    This link is to a typical page on a site that I created years ago with Dreamweaver and a lot of hand-coding of HTML and CSS. It is not responsive and has some other problems, such as a fixed-width layout — a problem of having an artist for a client :-). I plan on replacing it with a WP-based site using Astra Pro if possible, and am new to using WordPress.

    Mainly I’d like an idea of how to get the same look for the content area of the pages. Currently I did it by making a DIV and tiling a background image in it. Then inside that I put the actual content DIV with a white background and appropriate margins to create the patterned border effect. So are there tools within Astra Pro (or possibly Elementor if necessary) that would achieve this same look?

  • Hello! You can install the plugin “Gutenberg Blocks – Ultimate Addons for Gutenberg” and use it to make any design. Here is what I got https://s91573pd.bget.ru/?page_id=955 I used the “section” block with a background image and inside it I placed the “Advanced Columns” block with a colored background and images. You just need to learn WordPress, the Gutenberg editor and the Gutenberg Blocks plugin – Ultimate Addons for Gutenberg.
    This is done in the free Astra theme. Astra Pro will provide you with additional features.

    Thank you! I also just figured out that I can probably do the same thing with CSS border-image support, but I’ll check out the Gutenberg Addons as well.

    Hello @rochrunner

    The solution provided by @zabavljaev should surely answer your queries.
