 * The element to stick is
 * .main-navigation
 * Works well when I scroll but it has no background and is hard to see on the page
   content. So I’d like to add a transparent (about 50%) gray background
 * Tried to fiddle with this in extra css but no success.
 * .element-is-sticky {
    background: blue; }
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fextra-css-for-adding-transparent-background%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello!
 * Looked at your website and I can’t see any sticky menu but if you just want the
   code for a 50% transparent grey background use this code:
 * `background-color: #80808080;`
 * Let me know if it helped you.

 * Hi [@daspi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/daspi/), thanks for trying my
   plugin. 🙂
 * I don’t see my plugin active on your site right now, so I’m not able to troubleshoot
   this issue. Please let me know once it’s active again, and I’ll be happy to take
   a look.
