In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundWorks perfect now.
Is there a list of color names that would work like that? Haven’t seen colors used by name before.
Apologize for not knowing what’s going on.
Thanks so much for the help.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundMy bad again. Just figured out not to have the /* things.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundHang on. Totally got it. There is a place in the theme’s settings to add custom css, and maybe that keeps it from working other ways or something. I don’t know. I thought ftp would work just the same.
I put it in there, and it worked.
Only problem, I’ve apparently got the code wrong on having both transparent and the color change.
Is this wrong?
.title-mask .entry-title {
/* background: transparent; */
color: deepskyblue;
}I put this in and it just changes the color.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundWell, it’s within this
/* FlexSlider Necessary Styles *********************************/ .flexslider {margin: 0; padding: 0;} .flexslider .slides > li {display: none; -webkit-backface-visibility: hidden; padding:0;margin-right: 20px;} /* Hide the slides before the JS is loaded. Avoids image jumping */ #entry-post .flexslider .slides > li, #entry-blog .flexslider .slides > li {border- top:0;} .widget-slider .slides > li { border-top:0; } .widget-carousel .slides > li {margin-right: 10px;} .flex-main.flexslider .slides > li {margin-right: 0px;} /* Hide the slides before the JS is loaded. Avoids image jumping */ .flexslider .slides img {width: 100%; display: block;} .flex-pauseplay span {text-transform: capitalize;} .widget-slider .title-mask { position:absolute; top:20px; right:0;} .widget-slider .content-mask { position:absolute; top:90px; right:0; width: 50%;} .content-mask p { margin-bottom:0; } .title-mask .entry-title, .content-mask p { background: #FFF; background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin-bottom: 0; padding: 15px; text-transform: uppercase; } .content-mask p { text-transform:none;}At any rate, it seems crazy, when I ftp the file, it is changed. I’ve changed plenty of other things in different places, but I guess not the stylesheet up to this point.
He actually does provide support, and he’s been pretty cool up to now, and helped me make several adjustments, but on this one thing he isn’t being especially helpful.
I guess if the style.css is somehow not actually changing, that’s a problem. I don’t get how that is even possible.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundIs it possible to just alter this –
.title-mask .entry-title, .content-mask p {
background: #FFF;
background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 1);
margin-bottom: 0;
padding: 15px;
text-transform: uppercase;
}as opposed to adding something? Or is that more of a problem.
Totally unrelated, I went to check my site on pingdom just because I turned off the cache, and it gave me 1 second faster than it usually does.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundDone.
I’m just putting at the absolute bottom of the style.css. Is that possibly a problem?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundStill nothing using either of those ones I tried above.
I left one in there this time
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundWell, I took them back out because they didn’t do anything.
Just to throw out my not understanding, where you have a specific number slider there – it seems the slider has a new number every time you load the page. Is that just me?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundI tried a couple of different versions of that, and nothing happened.
I tried –
#slider-1457101974 .title-mask .entry-title {
/* background: transparent; */
color: deepskyblue;
}Which is how I thought you meant that.
And then I tried just –
#slider-1457101974 .title-mask .entry-title {
background: transparent;
}but neither did anything.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundOk, so this may be a stupid question, but where do I put that?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundI see what you’re saying. So, if the background was completely see through, you wouldn’t see the text either?
I don’t know how a background image would work with the titles changing with new posts being in the slider, but that’s probably just because I don’t understand.
What I want, basically, is for just the text to show up, and to be in a brighter color (blue to kind of match, but whatever).
Thanks a lot for the help by the way.

In reply to: change style.css question about transparent backgroundI have to admit, I’m not sure what the difference would mean to the final result. You would sort of see that it was there, but you could see through it mostly vs. you wouldn’t know it was there at all?
Either way really. As long as it doesn’t look like the massive white block. If one is easier, that’s fine.

The element in question is (probably obviously) the top right slider.

In reply to: [LightPress Lightbox] Lightbox with Responsive Gallery Grid Plugin or similarWorks great. Thanks a lot for the help.

In reply to: [LightPress Lightbox] Lightbox with Responsive Gallery Grid Plugin or similarThanks for the response. How great that you did stumble on it.
So, here’s a silly question. The Colorbox link moves possibly beyond my knowledge. I’m not sure what adding that even means. If it’s not adding a WordPress plugin, I’m lost.
Adding the line of code to the file I can do, no problem, but I don’t know what to do with the colorbox.
I see that there is a plugin for WP that is specifically called jQuery Colorbox, but I assume that is not exactly the same as adding via the link. Or is it?
