Default theme page background image no load.

    I know a little css and once had the blog all decked out to match the home page, but after the latest upgrade to WordPress, the theme degraded to the bare-bones default. I’ve been trying to put the colors and images back, but I just can’t get that background image to show up, even when I’ve replaced the kubrick’s with my own images.

    I’ve tried to to dropping jpegs and gifs into the theme default images folder, and I’ve tried to change the css. Does anyone have a suggestion, a tip, or a trick?

    If that is just to difficult, can someone recommend a simple to style (colors, header, text) theme with tabs between the header and posts, and one sidebar on the right? Thanks.

    Hello t31os,

    the url is: https://monet.unk.edu/artblog/

    Ok so which image is missing, the BODY background?

    Just so i’m clear on where an image ‘should’ be.

    Body background yes. I’ve got a small image that I want to tile behind the header-content-footer. The image (actually several versions of it) is in the default theme’s images folder, but the body url(link) is not working as I expected.

    Can only suggest trying a fresh copy of the theme and copying the modifications you made across piece by piece…

    Test the background change first before the other changes though..

    I’m using a modified Kubrick theme right now, and i can set background color and image without issue, so i don’t know what else to suggest.

    Hello t310s,

    Thanks for looking into it. I think you’re right. I probably did some mis-tweak earlier that would be near impossible to track down now.

    Instead of installing a new default, I selected a new theme, Magicblue. The design is pretty enough, but a bit over the top for my needs and the colors were wrong too. However, “blue” had the two-column, right-sidebar layout I wanted, and it was easy to customize as well. I only have to construct a better header image than placeholder I’ve slapped up for now.

    I was considering moving on to a theme with tabs anyway.

    Again, thanks.
