Alas, no joy ??

And it’s time for me to surrender! the amount of time spent compared with the result isn’t worth it ??

I’ve color picked the dominant color in the background image right behind the footer and set the footer to that color.

It looks ok without being terrible!

Appreciate the time and effort webdev!!

The site should be ready in a few days, so I’ll post a link and you can have a look see at what I wanted to achieve.

I thought that white was 255 and gray was 128 ??
I’m not trying to do a color, I have an image as a background.
I’m just trying to make that footer more opaque so you can see the image behind….

as you raise the opacity, it gets closer and closer to white(the default color)
as you lower the opacity, it gets closer and closer to grey…..

at the top of the thread I mentioned another post where it was suggested it needed to be altered in the php. and that I have no idea whatsoever about!

nonsense indeed… sounds like a movie called Notting Hill

no luck there with the !important, it just changes it to a darkish grey.

I can change the color, i can hide but I cant make transparent ??

hi webdev,
im not very experienced, so forgive any nonsense i might write….

I used this :

#main-wrapper,
div.container {
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.35);
}

to make background transparent, but cant seem to get it right for the footer.

I tried this :

footer#footer .colophon {
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.35);
}
but it didnt have any effect.

the site is still in development.

thanks ??

sorry, forgot to mention it was for the customizr theme ??
