Change Background of "Sidebar"

  • I put sidebar in quotes because it’s a custom sidebar that I have in my header, right below my banner. Actually, it’s four of them.

    In the style.css, when I try to define a background image for the div ID that’s being called by the divs that hold the widgets – which are sidebars, essentially – it doesn’t show up. I can change the background color with no problems, but it won’t load a background image.

  • Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on for this kind of CSS work.

    Not sure how that helps me.

    I already use Google Chrome which pretty much does the same thing. So uhh… not really sure what to add.

    Edit: Guess I’ll give it a shot, see if I can get it working.

    Update: Yeah, it still won’t change the image. Whether I use Chrome’s editor or firebug in Firefox, I try to insert a background-image definition to the div id and it doesn’t accept it, yet it’ll still change colors.

    ur link to the image is broken

    try to use full link like this

    background: url('https://www.thesitename.com/images/thebg.jpg') no-repeat;
