Make BG colour transparent between header and footer

Hi, I can help you with this, can you provide me the link to your site. This should be a simple fix.

Thanks!

Hi etheisen,

Thanks for helping! I’m new to this, so I really appreciate it. I’m only just getting going on this today, so pretty much no content is up yet, but the template stuff should help. At the moment the background colour is black, which I set using the settings that came with the theme. Ideally, I’d like the site’s background image to show through, so I’d like to be able to control the transparency of the background colour in that section. I just can’t find the right place in their CSS to add that code to. Here’s the site so far..

AH, ok so I found the piece… do you have JetPack installed? You should be able to add custom that way. I’ll look to see if there’s a good plugin for that too.

Otherwise you’d need to add CSS directly into the styles.css file.

No JetPack installed.. that might be a bit advanced, even though I know it’s designed to make things easier. I’d rather just find the place in the stylesheet to add it. Though there is a window in the misc. settings area for custom CSS, I just don’t know what that would be.

Hi!

Try to add this in the custom CSS textarea:

#main {
  background-color: transparent;
}

That worked perfectly! 10-Q!!!

You’re welcome! ??

Worked for me too. Thanks
