Wondering how to add a large background?

  • I’m wondering how I can add a large background to my Home page, and others? The body of text seems to be covering any image I add, and any changes I make to the body (like colour and transparency) don’t apply to it.

  • Hi @lovelygoldpony,

    Did you try adding this ?

    body { background: url(your-image); }

    Thanks, @congthien, but that doesn’t seem to work either. Maybe I am just coding the image wrong…

    Can somebody give me a basic run down of how to insert images properly in html, so I know I’m doing this right? My boss has put me in charge of web design and any experience I have is from like twelve years ago.

    @lovelygoldpony, are you using the correct image path? e.g. wp-content/uploads/2016/12/image-name.jpg?

    I actually usually just go to the media library and copy the full image path, so it is

    body { background: url('https://domain-name.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/image-name.jpg?'); }
