Background Image

Permalink
Hi,

Is it possible to have a full screen background image? Then various smaller content blocks would sit on top of the background image.

Thanks

What help do you need?

Thanks. Is there a section of the documentation that discusses the process?

I don't think so?

Do you have access to the theme css and server files?

If you do then upload an 'image' to a folder called 'images' or something similar.

Then in the main css file add something like:
background-image: url(images/image.jpg) fixed no-repeat;background-size: cover

You seem to be saying that it is not a simple process. So if a non-technical client of mine wanted to change the background image, he couldn't. Is that correct or is there an easy way for my client to change the image? Thanks

There is but first you need to set the system in place.

Using what steevb proposed you can make sure you have a full screen image. Now instead of putting the image in any folder, put it in the file manager then use maybe a page attrbiute to select that file. Us the page attribute in steevb's code to show the image.

Whenever your client want to change the image, they just need to go to the page attributes in the dashboard and select a new image
