    I’m italian, and I apologize for my English.
    I use the theme aurelia, and i want to use the filter to make clear the sidebar. I used:
    filter: alpha(opacity=80);
    there:

    #sidebar {
	background-color:#000000;
	font: 1em 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
	}

    but it doesn’t work, the opacity is always 100 even if i’m going to 0.
    Can you help me? Thank you

    Have you tried using Chrome’s and Firefox’s versions of opacity?

    Thank you, it works, but it hides also the words.
    I used this:

    background: rgb(0, 0, 0);
5.background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);

    and it works, but the widget are also with a black background. I search their class or id in the style.css but they aren’t there. Solutions?
    Thank you for the help ??

    CSS opacity applied to a parent element means the children elements will inherit that opacity style.
    Try using a background image of the opacity you want instead.

    These sorts of CSS-specific queries should really be asked on CSS forums such as https://csscreator.com/forum . It’s beyond WordPress.

    So you advice to remove the background color and replace it with a transparent black image already?
