Background picture not showing up

  • In order to utilize widgets on pages and post, I installed amr shortcode any widget.

    This works except that if you make the featured image for a “[shapely] parralax section for frontage” and choose background full or background small, no image shows up. It also appears there is still padding or margin on to the left side; it’s hard to say because I can’t get the background image to show up and the light gray background only shows up on Windows.

    I would like to use the featured image for a page/post as the header image.

    Thank you!

    All this plugin does is ‘capture and hold’ the echo’ed output of the widget you have specified and then return that html output so that wordpress can replace the shortcode text with the widgets html output. It knows NOTHING about the widget, the theme etc.

    It maybe that whatever widget css is specifying the background image for whatever part of the html on that page, does not expect to not be in a sidebar.

    Please read up on css (specifity, inheritance etc) and how to use the web developer tools such as ‘inspect element’ that browsers offer to work out what is happening on your page.

    You could try asking the widget plugin forum for assistance too. They should be better able to help.

    Hi anmari,

    Thanks for the speedy reply! After going over the info you sent and inspecting my site element, I’m still a bit confused as to why this is happening.

    I can’t seem to attach the photos here so below is the link to my question on the theme’s support forum: https://colorlib.com/wp/forums/topic/amr-shortcode-any-widget-background-image-not-showing-up/

    Despite trying other methods, I’d still like to use amr shortcode any widget for my site. So if you’ve any suggestion, I’m all ears.

    Thanks again!

    That’s not background image css – yet – it’s just custom info.
    the html data attributes are custom

    So I imagine that plugin has javascript that probably changes the data-image-src to and probably the js is not being applied.
