 * Good day.
 * Why is it so painfully impossible to remove the background overlay?! CSS does
   not help. Server cache has been cleared multiple times.
 * body > .main-container:after {opacity: 0 !important; background-color: #fff;}
 * Your plugin does not consider its own style overrides. Even adding this to the
   main theme’s CSS customizer does not work.
 * Also, this has been addressed here multiple times. Why is there no option in 
   the plugin to simply “turn off overlay”? Really frustrating to say the least!

 * Hi,
 * All fields need to be escaped, so you can’t use `>` (greater than) your CSS. 
   Use this instead:
    `body .main-container:after {opacity: 0 !important; background-
   color: #fff;}`
