Hi bmach79,
I’m using this theme as well, and it took me quite some time to figure out how to add a background. Here’s how I did it:
Under Theme Settings, go to the Layout section. Change Layout Bound from Full Width to Boxed, and save. After doing that, I was able to add a background.
I hope that helps!
add this in your child theme.
in the style.css find ” #main ” and change it like this below
#main { background: #e8e8e8; padding: 35px; background-image: url(http://www.yoursite.org/wp-content/uploads/background.png); background-repeat: repeat-y; }
you have to change the link with the one of your site,and to upload the background to the uploads folder.use a lightweight png image
The best (and quickest)way I found was to find this:
body.layout-full{
/* Use the same color as the footer */
background:url(‘images.yourimage.jpg’);
It is on line 1567 of the style.css file. After changing this color that was originally here to my image path all was well.
