background image / color

Hi..

I did a preliminary search before posting, but wasn't able to find an answer. I have also messed with all the css files and spent several hours messing with everything else before coming to the forum...

I have the default black & white theme going on with that faint but apparent background image (assumming repeating) throughout the borders of the content. How do i change this image/replace with a solid color? Preferably i would like to replace with a high res image of just a color blend..

Please help.

Thanks.

Please edit: /templates/gk_black_and_white/css/override.css and add at its end:

Code: Select all

div.bg {background: #fff;}


for white bg color, or:

Code: Select all

div.bg {background: transparent url('../images/stripes.png') repeat-x 0 0;}


for background image (image file is placed relative to override.css file)
Remember to enable "CSS override" in template settings - advanced section.

Thank you, that is great. I was able to get the background to work on the 'main' portion;however, it seems that the bottom/footer area retained the old background and was not changed? Is there a way to have the background cover the entire page?

Also,

I noticed that when i migrate to a new page..for instance, a k2 item page, the default background reappears. Do i need to make another css change for the k2 to look for the new background instead of the default one?

thanks again

Could You post exact link to this kind of post on your site?

To do that you would need to remove background from div.background and move it to body element.

Have you been able to solve the problem?
