Hi.

I did this

#main {
background-image: url(‘https://www.teateroen.dk/WP/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/bacgroundWP.jpg’);
background-position: center;
}

.site {
background-color: rgba(191, 207, 204, 0.6);
}

and bg image comes ok. It does not matter so much that it does not show the image out of the inner area, that is, beyond the banner which is already 3600 pix wide.
I am not sure that theme takes the .site css line…

It still repeats image on a long page but only 1 page is concerned: “https://www.teateroen.dk/WP/prokektet/”. Which I can live with as it repeats for each new article in the page

if you have a better solution, it is welcome.
thx for help anyway.

Hi
well it works in a way as it comes in the background as you would expect, behind textframes… but only in my dashboard (site/wp-admin). Not on the website that remains white and the dashboard functions appears on a transparent sidebar down left on the left side of the website…

Actually it works moreless…
I can either have a background colour that fits to the whole blog (both inner and outer area) or have a background image that only appears in the inner area (according to banner:1600 pixel wide), the outer area remaining white (it does not take both the image and the background colour line from the code you sent me).
Moreover, the image is automatically repeated when the inner area becomes bigger than the picture, that is when you scroll down a long page…
I guess that’s the limit. I might find a way not to repeat the image, but how to set the picture for both inner and outer area? Maybe the theme has an infinite background which makes a background image a challenge, unless the image follows the scroll down… That might be a solution…
Any clue?

and here is the code (with the copy/paste of the media link) to get the background image.

#main {
? background-image: url(‘https://www.teateroen.dk/WP/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/bacgroundWP.jpg’);
}

Hi,

I have tried with edit css (on my child theme) and with the custom css plugin.

On edit css, it works for the colour, but somehow when I try with a picture, the code disappear when I save change in stylesheet, so no background image.

On custom css plugin, changing the colour is also working, as for the background image, the code doesn’t disappear, but the background remain white…

I use a twenty thirteen child theme.

thx

“add an image, if you’d like, with the background-image property”
where is that?
It works well with colours, but what would be the code for an image?
My problem is that I cant’t get rid of the white background of the theme’s inner area on my pages and posts. I know twenty thirteen is not made for that, but is there a way as you wrote?
Whenever I use various background plugins, the images only appear behind the white background of my pages on the outter area…
thx
