[Theme: Oxygen] Custome full-page template not displaying bg image/color

  • Hey y’all,

    I’ve created a custom page template that’s rid of everything except what I put into the page (no header, sidebars, etc.) – took the code from a post here, in fact. It *appears* to have the functionality to set a custom background, either with an image or a color value. Not working for me. Only will display white, which is my Oxygen Theme’s default.

    Is it possible to override that white bg default from my template file? Or do I have modify something within my theme’s CSS? Either way…I’m completely useless. Any assistance would be wonderful.

    Here is the link to my custom page: https://wp.me/P43KoZ-1dW

    I can also provide the code I used to make the page template as well, if that’s helpful.

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. Really appreciate all of you guys!

    anyone have any ideas?

    I’m surprised your custom CSS didn’t override the theme’s CSS, since it’s coming after it.

    What I would do is add a class name to your <body> tag and use that class as part of the selector. Normally, themes will call the body_class() function that adds different classes to the body element depending upon what kind of page it is. However, it looks like you aren’t doing so in your template.

    So for example, change your body element so it looks like this:

    <body class="tg1t">

    Then in your custom CSS, add the class to the selector:

    body.tg1t {
    background-color: #ffcc00;
    background-image: url('https://theincrediblog.com/teaser-background/');
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    background-position: top center;
    background-attachment: scroll;
}

    By the way, the value you have for the background-image property isn’t valid. It should point to an actual image file, not to a page where the image file is located. Use this:

    background-image: url('https://i2.wp.com/theincrediblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/teaser-background.png');
