Does it work with background tags?

Do you have a specific theme that you’re intending to use it with? Positions can be rendered via shortcode so if there’s the possibility to insert shortcode into that section, it could work. I have not tested this to be sure, though.

I can’t verify themes that aren’t available in the WordPress repo, since I don’t have access to the source code. That’s something you’ll have to check with the theme author.
